11-9. A 10 in. (25 cm) round ceiling diffuser from Table 11-4 is to be used with 650 cfm (307 L/s). Compute the total
pressure, throw, and noise criteria for this application.
11-12. A linear floor diffuser is required for a space with an air supply rate of 600 cfm (283 L/s). The room has a 12
ft ceiling and a cooling load of 40 Btu/(hr-ft2) (126 W/m2). (a) Select a diffuser from Table 11-3 for this application.
(b) Determine the total pressure and NC for your selection.
11-13. Suppose a round ceiling diffuser is to be used in the situation described in Problem 11-12. The room has plan
dimensions of 26 × 28 ft (8 × 8.5 m). (a) Select a diffuser from Table 11-4 for this application. (b) Determine the total
pressure and NC for the diffuser.
11-14. Assume that two high sidewall diffusers are to be used for the room described in Problems 11-12 and 11-13,
and they are to be installed in the wall with the longest dimension. (a) Select suitable diffusers from Table 11-5. (b)
Determine the total pressure and NC for the diffusers.
11-15. Select a suitable return grille from Table 11-7 for the room described in Problem 11-12. Total pressure for the
grille should be less than 0.10 in. wg (25 Pa), and one dimension should be 12 in. (30 cm).
11-16. Select a perimeter-type diffuser system for the building shown in Fig. 11-13. It is a general office space.
11-17. Select a round ceiling diffuser system for the building in Problem 11-16.
11-18. Select a high sidewall diffuser system for the building in Problem 11-16.
11-19. Select return air grilles for the building in Problem 11-16. Assume that the return system must
be placed in the attic and each room must have a return.
11-20. Consider a room with a 20 ft exposed wall that has two windows. The other dimension is 42 ft (12.8 m). The
room is part of a variable air-volume system. (a) Layout and select T-bar diffusers from Table 11-6 if the room requires
a total air quantity of 800 cfm (380 L/s) and the maximum total pressure available is 0.10 in. wg (25 Pa). (b) Note the
total pressure, the throw to where the maximum velocity has decreased to 100 ft/min (0.5 m/s), and the NC for each
diffuser.
١1-21. Consider an 18 × 30 ft (5.5 × 9 m) room in the southwest corner of a zone. There are windows on both exterior
walls, and the peak air quantity for the room is 1000 cfm (470 L/s). (a) Layout and select T-bar diffusers from Table
11-6 using a maximum total pressure of 0.15 in. wg (38 Pa). (b) Note the total pressure, the throw to where the
maximum velocity has decreased to 100 ft/min (0.5 m/s), and the NC for each diffuser.
