COMPOUND HOODS
A compound hood, such as the
slot/plenum shown to the right,
would have 2 losses, one through
the slot and the other through
the transition into the duct.
The slot entry loss coefficient, Fs '
would have a value typically in the
range of 1.00 to 1.78 (see Chapters
3 and 10).
The duct entry loss coefficient is given
by the obove data for tapered hoods.
