Duct Area Calculator

For optimal ventilation system design and effective HVAC planning, it is essential to accurately determine the surface area of all ducts and fittings. This online Duct Area Calculator computes the surface area of various duct shapes—whether round or rectangular—as well as fittings including elbows, tees, and end caps. Such calculations are critical both during the design phase and when procuring materials for the installation of the ventilation system.

Calculator functionality:

• Calculation of duct and fitting surface area based on geometric parameters (diameter, length, width, and height of components).
• Ability to choose from 15 types of elements: round and rectangular ducts, elbows at different angles, transitions, tees, end caps, take-offs, and other fittings.
• Determination of the surface area for one or all selected elements, with the option to account for quantity in units or linear meters.
• Incorporation of the cost for each element to calculate the overall cost of the ventilation system.

Calculation process:

1. Select the type of duct or fitting element you want to calculate.
2. Enter the dimensions of the element according to the provided diagrams (for both round and rectangular elements).
3. Specify the quantity of elements in units or linear meters.
4. If required, enter the cost per unit or per linear meter.
5. Click the "Calculate" button to obtain the final result.

The calculation results include the surface area of a single element, the total surface area of all selected elements, and their cost. You can also add this data to the project specification for further use by clicking the "Add to Specification" button.

Additional features:

• Edit the cost of elements directly in the specification.
• Remove items from the specification as needed.

This Duct Area Calculator is a valuable tool for both designers and engineers, ensuring precise computation of duct and fitting surface areas for efficient ventilation system planning.
