The document discusses friction charts, pressure drop calculations, and equivalent lengths for duct design.

Friction charts are used to determine pressure drop and friction loss per meter in duct systems.

Factors that affect pressure drop in ducts include duct length, fittings, velocity, and friction loss per meter.
