Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Duct CFM to Diameter, formulas, and expected usage.
How is round duct diameter estimated from CFM?
The calculator first finds area from CFM/velocity, then solves the round-duct area formula for diameter.
Why does velocity affect duct size?
Higher design velocity allows smaller ducts for the same airflow, while lower velocity requires larger ducts.
What velocity should I choose?
Choose based on noise, pressure drop, and system type. Main trunks often use lower velocity than small branch runs.
Is this enough for full duct design?
Use it for quick sizing; complete designs should include friction, fittings, static pressure, and equipment constraints.
