Similarly, professional design software packages like have integrated the ASHRAE database. Right-CommDuct combines the DFDB with various computation methods (e.g., equal friction, static regain) to provide a comprehensive design environment for commercial HVAC systems.
The ASHRAE Duct Fitting Database is a specialized software application developed by the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers. It provides loss coefficient data for more than 200 distinct types of HVAC duct fittings.
: Accurate pressure drop calculations prevent over-sizing HVAC fans, ensuring compliance with strict fan power limitation mandates.
The is a high-precision digital tool designed for HVAC engineers to calculate pressure loss across complex duct networks. Developed by ASHRAE in collaboration with Carmel Software Corporation , this version serves as the industry standard for determining duct fitting loss coefficients (C-factors). Key Features of Version 6.00.05
Navigate through the catalog of more than 200 fittings, or use the search function to locate a specific fitting by its ASHRAE number or description.
