External Static Pressure Calculation Guide

The document provides calculations for external static pressure related to an air handling unit, detailing air flow, duct sizes, and pressure losses for various fittings. The total external static pressure calculated is 3.269 in w.g., with a safety factor resulting in 3.596 in w.g. Additionally, it includes notes on the methods used for calculating friction coefficients and pressure losses.

Notes:-
1) Friction Coefficient for Duct fittings is as per (ASHRAE Handbook 2009, SMACNA Fourth Edition)
2) Pressure loss through Volume Control Damper and Exhaust Air Louver is calculated by using the Pressure Drop Detail Catalogue.
4) Pressure loss through Duct is Verefied and Calculated through "McQuay"Design Tools Duct Sizer .
5) Friction Factor through Duct is Verefied and Calculated through "McQuay"Design Tools Duct Sizer .
