DAMPER SELECTION AND SIZING

Table 7. Pressure Drop Calculation Example.
Had the duct size been 1.50 m
2
, the same size as the damper, the pressure drop would have been lower (7.25 Pa).
MIXED AIR CONTROL
Figure 34 shows a mixed air control system. All three dampers
(outdoor, exhaust, and return air) are the primary source of
pressure drop in their individual system so parallel blade
dampers are selected to obtain linear control.

Fig. 34. Mixed Air Control System
(Parallel Blade Dampers).
When a weather louver or bird screen is used in series with
the outdoor air and exhaust dampers (Fig. 35), the static pressure
drop shifts from the louvers/screens to the dampers as they go
from open to closed. Opposed blade dampers for outdoor air
and exhaust air provide a more linear characteristic for these
systems. The return damper is still the primary source of
pressure drop in its system so a parallel blade damper is used
to minimize pressure drop yet maintain a linear characteristic.
