System Characteristic Curve: Flow (m3/s)

The document contains a ventilation system design spreadsheet that calculates the pressure losses and flow characteristics through a duct system. It includes duct geometry, fan specifications, and calculated values like velocity, pressure loss, and static/total pressure at different points along the length of the ductwork. A graph at the end plots the static, velocity, and total pressure variations along the duct system.
