Question: Solve # 1 and # 2 1 . A fan is used to produce a constant air velocity of 4 0 0 0 fpm throughout

Solve #1 and #2
1. A fan is used to produce a constant air velocity of 4000 fpm throughout the 40-inch round duct loop shown below. Each of the four 90 degree elbows has an equivalent length of 60 feet. Determine the volumetric flow rate (cfm) and head pressure loss (in inches of water column) that the fan must overcome. Use the Darcy-Colebrook chart. (3 points)
2. Repeat Problem #1 for a rectangular duct measuring 52 x24 inches. Use the same equivalent lengths and same air velocity. (3 points)
