Fabric Duct and Pressure Test Results
 Friction loss on fabric duct system by DuctSox
 Effects on velocity pressure, static regain and
static pressure
 Effects on the uniformity of the outlet air
 Research done at the Mechanical Engineering
department of Tennessee Tech University (TTU)
 Same research lab trusted by ASHRAE to create
ASHRAEs Duct Fitting Database
 DuctSox comparing two fabric duct systems:
 Fabric duct with an internal frame
 Fabric duct without an internal frame
 Results:
 Pressure loss difference between two types of systems is
very small
Fabric Duct and Pressure Test Results
 Static pressure is provided by the HVAC unit
(AHU)
 Inflation and operation of a fabric duct system is
dependent on static pressure (SP), NOT inlet
velocity
Fabric Duct and Pressure Test Results
 Velocity pressure (VP) is kinetic energy and
slowly changes forms to a useful potential
energy or static pressure regain (SPR) as the air
travels down the constant diameter duct
 For most systems, the pressure will be higher at
the endcap than at the inlet due to SPR
 In fabric duct system, SPR is common occurrence
due to constant diameter sizing
 Internal damper (or AFD) is used to adjust SP and
reduce the pressure difference
 AFD creates more uniform air dispersion through
the whole length of duct
