Interaction of Duct Fittings

Hi! Could somebody help me regarding this?

All of the data on loss coefficients are based on fully developed flow of air into the fittings ( free stream loss coefficient ). Air leaving fan, elbow, tee or any duct fittings is always turbulent and distorted. You actually need a certain length ( 5 to 10 dia in duct lenght ) for the flow to fully develop. If the air flow does not become fully developed the pressure drop of the downstream fittings will generally increased including noise.

I am actually looking for methodology / reference or books that tells you how to calculate or compensate for fittings installed very close to each other. Using the loss coefficent for fully develop flow is inaccurate.

I have tried ASHRAE and It does not tell you about this problem.

Thank you

Try this book, it is now available in paperback.
