Review of Formula Terms a = sectional area of airway measured in square feet (ft.2) • Rectangle or square………height x width = area • Trapezoid ………. top width + bottom width x height = area 2 • Circle………………………..¶ x r2 = area Note: ¶ = 3.1416
Perimeter o = perimeter of airway measured in linear feet • Rectangle or Square…………… Top width +bottom width + side 1 + side 2 • Circle………………………………¶ x diameter • Please go to work sheet and do questions 1 thru 5
Velocity v = velocity of air current measured in feet per minute (fpm) • Smoke tube………………………distance decimal time • Anemometer…………………. • Magnehelic……………………V.P. = 4003 X i (Velocity Pressure)
Magnehelic • The magnehelic is a differential pressure gage which can measure positive, negative, or differential pressure to within + 2 % accuracy. • It is generally used when a high speed anemometer is not available.
Pitot Tube • The Pitot tube (named after Henri Pitot in 1732) measures a fluid velocity by converting the kinetic energy of the flow into potential energy. The conversion takes place at the stagnation point, located at the Pitot tube entrance (see the schematic). • A pressure higher than the free-stream (i.e. dynamic) pressure results from the kinematic to potential conversion. This "static" pressure is measured by comparing it to the flow's dynamic pressure with a differential manometer.
Taking an air reading using a Magnehelic and a Pitot tube: When high velocity air movement will damage the anemometer. Take magnehelic reading(inches of water), then use formula; 4003 x i. = V.P. or ventilation pressure , which is in fpm Ventilation Tubing Air Flow Pitot Tube Magnehelic 1..2..3..4..
