Straight Duct :
Definition :
- With a straight duct of constant cross-sectional area, the velocity pressure remains constant along the length of the duct.
- Therefore, the static pressure drop along the duct is equal to the pressure loss due to friction.
- Straight Duct is the most common type of duct in commercial projects.
- Ducts are conduits or passages used in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) to deliver and remove air.
- The needed airflows include, for example, supply air, return air, and exhaust air.
- Ducts commonly also deliver ventilation air as part of the supply air.
- Your air ducts will be located within the framing of your home and then they can be within floors, ceilings, or walls.
- If your vents are located on the floor, you will find your ducts in the flooring.
- If your vents are on the ceiling, your ducts are in the ceiling or walls.

Formula :
- The formula for the calculation is given below.
- Result = 2 * (Width + Height) * Length.
- Beside the formula this calculator works.
