2. Duct (flow) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duct_(flow)

   Kinks in flexible ducting must be avoided. Some flexible duct markets prefer to avoid using flexible duct on the return air portions of HVAC systems, however flexible duct can tolerate moderate negative pressures. The UL181 test requires a negative pressure of 200 Pa. To use flexible ducting in a system, make sure to pull the duct tight so you ...

3. Diffuser (thermodynamics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffuser_(thermodynamics)

   A diffuser is "a device for reducing the velocity and increasing the static pressure of a fluid passing through a system”. [1] The fluid's static pressure rise as it passes through a duct is commonly referred to as pressure recovery. In contrast, a nozzle is used to increase the discharge velocity and lower the pressure of a fluid passing ...

4. Ductwork airtightness - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ductwork_airtightness

   There are two major systems to classify ductwork airtightness, one based on European standards, the other based on ASHRAE standard 90.1-2010.Both are based on the leakage airflow rate at a given ductwork pressure divided by the product of the ductwork surface area and the same ductwork pressure raised to the power 0.65.

5. Mechanical, electrical, and plumbing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical,_electrical...

   Plumbing systems also service air distribution/control, and therefore contribute to the mechanical part of MEP. Plumbing for HVAC systems involves the transfer of coolant, pressurized air, water, and occasionally other substances. Ducting for air transfer may also be consider plumbing, but is generally installed by different tradespeople. [11]

6. Plenum chamber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plenum_chamber

   Simple direct ducting would give problems where the nearest cylinders received more airflow. The pulsating demand from the cylinders would also show problems of either pressure waves in the duct, or a shortage of inlet air towards the end of the inlet phase. The solution is to provide a large-volume plenum chamber between the inlet and the ...

7. Copper tubing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper_tubing

   Soft (or ductile) copper tubing can be bent easily to travel around obstacles in the path of the tubing. While the work hardening of the drawing process used to size the tubing makes the copper hard or rigid, it is carefully annealed to make it soft again; it is, therefore, more expensive to produce than non-annealed, rigid copper tubing.
