2. Damper (flow) - Wikipedia

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

   This damper can switch the electrical power to control additional "slave" dampers, minimizing the electrical load on the damper's control circuitry and power transformer. A zone damper (also known as a Volume Control Damper or VCD) is a specific type of damper used to control the flow of air in an HVAC heating or cooling system. In order to ...

3. Air-mixing plenum - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air-mixing_plenum

   Most systems will use motorized dampers to control the air mixing, and controlled by the building management system (BMS), or controls system. Typically as the fresh air and exhaust air dampers are driven from 0% open to 100% open, the mixing damper will in turn be driven from 100% open to 0% open, so as to always ensure a constant volume of ...

4. Register (air and heating) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Register_(air_and_heating)

   A register's damper provides a critical function. Primarily, the damper allows the amount of hot or cool air entering a room to be controlled, providing for more accurate control over room temperature. [7] Dampers also allow air to be shut off in unused rooms, improving the efficiency of the HVAC system.

5. Variable air volume - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_air_volume

   The fan maintains a constant static pressure in the discharge duct regardless of the position of the VAV box. Therefore, as the box closes, the fan slows down or restricts the amount of air going into the supply duct. As the box opens, the fan speeds up and allows more air flow into the duct, maintaining a constant static pressure. [11]

6. Ductwork airtightness - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ductwork_airtightness

   The ductwork airtightness level is the airflow rate through ductwork leakages divided by the ductwork area. It is recommended to test at least 10% and 10 m 2 of the duct surface including all duct types and a variety of sizes and components. The ductwork surface area is estimated according to EN 14239. [11]

7. Chimney - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chimney

   A top damper or cap damper is a metal spring door placed at the top of the chimney with a long metal chain that allows one to open and close the damper from the fireplace. A throat damper is a metal plate at the base of the chimney, just above the firebox, that can be opened and closed by a lever, gear, or chain to seal off the fireplace from ...

8. Duct (flow) - Wikipedia

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

   Smoke dampers and fire dampers are found in ductwork where the duct passes through a firewall or firecurtain. Smoke dampers are driven by a motor, referred to as an actuator . A probe connected to the motor is installed in the run of the duct and detects smoke, either in the air which has been extracted from or is being supplied to a room, or ...

9. Blast damper - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blast_damper

   Typical blast dampers are sized to match HVAC ductwork and provide proper airflow with low pressure drop.Common applications include protecting equipment and personnel of control rooms and accommodation modules in petrochemical and industrial process facilities onshore and offshore.
