Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of total pressure loss calculation technology for ventilation systems, specifically to an Office-based system and method for calculating total pressure loss in ventilation systems. Background Technology
[0002] Existing methods for calculating total air pressure loss in ventilation systems are mainly divided into two types: traditional manual calculation and the application of HVAC design calculator software.
[0003] The existing traditional manual calculation method involves substituting relevant data into formulas in a standardized document for calculation. This method suffers from problems such as complex calculation formulas, large amount of calculation, easy errors, and low efficiency.
[0004] Existing HVAC design calculator software refers to HVAC design calculators that integrate standard documents and formulas to form a calculator program. Calculations are performed by inputting parameters. This approach has several drawbacks: it requires program development, has a long development cycle, high costs, high technical barriers, and is not easy for designers to master. Moreover, most of these calculators are currently geared towards the mainland market and integrate mainland standards, which cannot meet the different standards and requirements of Hong Kong and Macau. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide an Office-based system and method for calculating the total wind pressure loss of a wind system, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] The technical solution to achieve the above objectives is: an Office-based system and method for calculating total wind pressure loss in a wind system, including an AIR SIDE PRESSURE LOSS module for inputting specific information about the wind system and selecting accessories;
[0007] The TEMPLATE module is used to store and edit wind pressure loss calculation formulas;
[0008] The REFERENCE module contains calculation rules and parameters based on the CIBSE GUIDE C standard;
[0009] The AIR SIDE PRESSURE LOSS includes modules for calculating air system accessories and air system pressure loss values.
[0010] The wind system accessories module includes various accessories needed in the wind system pressure calculation process.
[0011] Various accessories include ductwork - ductwork of different sizes and materials, including round and square ductwork.
[0012] Elbows are fittings used to change the direction of air ducts, such as right-angle elbows and 45-degree elbows. Elbows of different angles have different effects on pressure loss.
[0013] Tees and crosses are pipe fittings used for branching and merging; the pressure loss varies depending on the angle and size of the branch.
[0014] Control valves – such as air volume control valves – are used to regulate the air flow and pressure within a system;
[0015] In low-speed systems, the air flow rate is 200 m³ / s. 3 / h-2000m 3 / h, working pressure: from 50Pa to 300Pa;
[0016] Air flow rate in medium-speed system: 1500 m³ / h 3 / h-6000m 3 / h, working pressure: 300Pa to 800Pa;
[0017] Air flow rate in high-speed system: 5000m³ 3 / h-15000m 3 / h or more, working pressure: 800Pa to 2000Pa or more.
[0018] Transition components – such as reducing pipes and expanding pipes.
[0019] A silencer is a component used to reduce system noise, but it also causes some pressure loss.
[0020] Filters are devices used to remove particulate matter from the air. Pressure loss varies depending on the filtration efficiency and type.
[0021] The fan inlet and outlet – the fan itself and its connection method – also affect the pressure loss of the system.
[0022] The air system pressure loss calculation module includes input fields for actual project drawings, input fields for specific air system information used for calculation, input fields for parameter information of air system components, and output fields for calculated pressure loss values of air system components and total air system pressure loss values.
[0023] Both the TEMPLATE and REFERENCE modules have table protection, which requires a password to edit. After editing, the password must be entered again to enable protection.
[0024] A rapid method for calculating the total wind pressure loss of a wind system based on Office software includes the following steps:
[0025] S1: Open the Office software system on your computer and open AIR SIDE PRESSURE LOSSCALCULATION BASE ON CIBSE GUIDE.xlsm;
[0026] S2: Enter the “AIR SIDE PRESSURE LOSS” interface. First, in the “Air System Pressure Loss Value Calculation Table” area, enter the specific information of the air system to be calculated based on the actual project drawing information in the yellow mark of the table header.
[0027] S3: In the "Wind System Accessories" area, based on the specific form of the wind system for which wind pressure needs to be calculated, click on the required accessories in sequence from the negative pressure end to the positive pressure end of the wind system. The corresponding pressure loss calculation rows will then be displayed in the "Wind System Pressure Loss Value Calculation Table" area.
[0028] S4: In the "Pressure Loss Calculation Table of Air System" area, enter the parameter information of the accessories according to the actual project drawing information in the yellow marked area of the table, and the pressure loss calculation value of each accessory and the total pressure loss value of the air system will be automatically obtained;
[0029] S5: After obtaining the calculated pressure loss value of each component and the total pressure loss value of the air system, the data is automatically uploaded to the cloud for storage and backup, which is used for subsequent data comparison of the total loss range value in the air pressure system;
[0030] S6: The "Calculation Table of Pressure Loss Values in Wind System" area can be exported and printed;
[0031] S7: If you need to edit the LossCoeficient marked in blue in the calculation formula of the air system components based on manufacturer data or experience values, or directly assign a new Fitting Pressure, you can enter the "TEMPLATE" interface, click "Review" in the toolbar, then "Unprotect Sheet", and enter the password "TEMPLATE" to make the changes; after making the changes, you need to click "Review" in the toolbar, then "Protect Workbook", and enter the password "TEMPLATE" to create table protection;
[0032] S8: To edit the calculation rules and parameters related to CIBSE GUIDE C in the calculation formulas for wind system components, you can enter the "REFERENCE" interface, click "Review" in the toolbar, then "Unprotect Sheet," and enter the password "REFERENCE" to make modifications. After modification, you need to click "Review" in the toolbar, then "Protect Workbook," and enter the password "REFERENCE" to create table protection.
[0033] The beneficial effects of this invention are:
[0034] This invention primarily uses Office to record and store various components included in the wind system component module and various values in the wind system pressure loss value calculation table module. When needed, the calculation system and encryption module of Office can be used to quickly compare and calculate the total wind pressure loss of the wind system. At the same time, it can also perform calculations between component and numerical information, effectively solving the problems of low efficiency of manual calculation and long development cycle and high cost of application. It has the advantages of high accuracy, short cycle and low cost and easy to master.
[0035] Compared with traditional manual calculation, this invention has the advantages of being fast, flexible, easy to operate, and highly accurate. Compared with HVAC design calculator software, this invention has no technical threshold, is easy to master, does not require excessive development, has a small time cycle cost, and is based on the CIBSE GUIDE C standard, which can meet the needs of building engineering projects in Hong Kong and Macao.

[0042] The wind system accessories module includes various accessories needed in the wind system pressure calculation process;
[0043] Various accessories include ductwork - ductwork of different sizes and materials, including round and square ductwork.
[0044] Elbows are fittings used to change the direction of air ducts, such as right-angle elbows and 45-degree elbows. Elbows of different angles have different effects on pressure loss.
