DESIGN CALCULATIONS
(A). OPTION I
Based on the recommended extract rates for kitchen equipments given in the ‘CIBSE
guide B Table 2.11
Total
Type of kitchen Recommended Number of kitchen Recommended
equipment on extract rate equipment on extract rate
cooking island. (L/s) cooking island (L/s)
= 4.75 m3/s
Assuming that not all equipments are in use at any particular moment, a diversity of 80%
will be applied.
Hence, extract fan rate / duty = 4.3 m3/s x 3600 = 15480 m3/hr
(2) GREASE FILTERS
From IHVE Guide B, the recommended pressure loss for low velocity systems is:
Up to 10 m/s = 1 pa / m run
Rectangular ducts are easier to fabricate, install and maintenance and offer
better stiffness.
The cause of pressure drop considered were loss due to duct fittings (such as grease
filters, bends, entries, contractions etc.), length of duct loss and finally the velocity
pressure required for air flow.
Therefore,
∆Pf = 0.5 k ℓ v2
= 0.5 x 0.5 x 1.2 x 0.1142 N/m2
= 0.004 N/m2
From “Vokes” catalogue on grease filters, the pressure loss ∆Pf is obtained as follows.
= 8316 / 12240
= 68 %
k = 0.34
Therefore,
∆Pf = 0.5 k ℓ v2
= 0.5 x 0.34 x 1.2 x 7.642 N/m2
= 11.904 N/m2
(d) Loss due to duct bend
For a duct of aspect ratio 1, the velocity pressure loss factor k = 0.23
Thus, 200 bend velocity pressure loss factor, k 1 = 0.23 x 0.3 = 0.069
Therefore,
∆Pf = 0.5 k ℓ v2
= 0.5 x 0.069 x 1.2 x 7.642 N/m2
= 2.417 N/m2
(e) Loss along duct length
= 35.022 N/m2
= 116.112 pa
≈ 150 pa
