Supply Air Grille Velocity

Our wide selection of grilles registers diffusers and accessories includes a variety of shapes and sizes to meet any application and budget requirement.

Supply air grille velocity.

Outdoor air supply must be increased by 25. Eventually the supply air will slow enough to become ineffective in mixing with room air. The maximum throw is the distance of air travel to a terminal velocity of 0 41m1s. Flow velocity in air ducts should be kept within certain limits to avoid noise and unacceptable friction loss and energy consumption.

High air velocity at supply registers and return grilles resulting in air noise low velocity in certain ducts resulting in unnecessary gains and losses low velocity at supply registers resulting in poor throw and therefore room temperature control high air velocity inside fan coils and over cased. Low and medium pressure. This is commonly considered to be the air within an envelope of 50 fpm 0 25 m s or greater velocity. Ashrae 62 1 2010 vrp requires that if the heating air supplied from the ceiling is greater than 15 above room temperature the outdoor air supply must also be increased by 25.

Leed 2009 ventilation points are gained by increased ventilation 30 beyond 62 1 minimums. The minimum throw is the distance the air will travel to a terminal velocity of 0 64m1s. Air velocities for the initial 10 ft of duct extending from supply register or return grilles should not exceed the values given in the table by more than 20 percent. Doubling the duct diameter reduces the friction loss by factor 32.

The distance from the face to where this terminal velocity occurs is the throw. Total air is defined as the mixture of primary air and entrained room air which is under the influence of supply outlet conditions. Low velocity design is very important for the energy efficiency of the air distribution system. The point that air velocity becomes ineffective is called the terminal velocity.

Grilles registers and diffusers no one satisfies the demands for air distribution solutions better than hart cooley. The stamped face allows for 2 way air deflection coupled with the smooth glide technology to ensure a. Generally terminal velocity ranges from 150 down to 50 fpm. For each listed air volume the static pressure drop and two values of throw are given for each grille area factor.

Use this register for wall or ceiling openings.
