A horizontal air duct reduces in cross-sectional area from 0.070 m² to 0.020 m². Assuming no losses, what pressure change will occur when 6.67 N/s of air flows? (Use y = 31.4 N/m for pressure and temperature conditions involved.)
A branch duct for a heating system measures 76 mm * 154 mm. Compute the circular equivalent diameter. Then determine the maximum flow rate of air that the duct could carry while limiting the friction loss to 0.82 Pa/m
