Overview
The Duct and Pipe Pressure Loss Tool streamlines one of the most critical tasks in HVAC and MEP design — calculating pressure drops. By automatically reading duct and pipe network data directly from the Revit project, it eliminates manual input and external spreadsheets. The tool applies standard pressure loss equations and fitting coefficients based on ASHRAE, EN, or relevant engineering standards, ensuring accurate and reliable results. Engineers receive a clear report showing pressure loss per duct or pipe segment, total system losses, and critical path identification. This enables quick adjustments to fan and pump sizing, system optimization, and reduced energy waste. The Duct and Pipe Pressure Loss Tool saves calculation time while improving accuracy, consistency, and design documentation quality.
