AIR Distribution System Design: Dr. Fayza Yulia ST., MT

This document discusses the design of air distribution systems, also known as ductwork. It outlines different duct shapes and materials used, as well as the purpose of ducts to move air through a building for heating, cooling, ventilation and other functions. Key considerations for duct design criteria include space availability, installation costs, air friction loss, noise levels, heat transfer and airflow leakage, and codes/standards requirements. The document also defines common ductwork terms and notes that ductwork comprises a significant portion of HVAC system costs, emphasizing the need to limit noise levels.
