Note:
In plants with large air change rates, it is not always possible to keep the occupied zone free of draughts. The good
controllability of the TROX HESCO diffusion grilles with the
individually adjustable air control blades makes it possible
to guide the primary air movement so that draughts can be
avoided at the main points where people are present.
The air control blades can be altered using a DG blade adjusting key.

Explanatory note
The following calculation principles are based on tests and
experience and are valid for the dimensioning of
TROX HESCO diffusion grilles. The diagrams and data on
the minimum distances are designed so that, when the dimensioning is correct, no draughts occur in the occupied
zone (as long as no air stream gradients due to temperature
differences are present).

For grilles with blades in straight position, the air stream leaving the outlet diverges in the horizontal or vertical plane by the
angle = 20, Distance Dh = 0.10 RT
Calculation example
Given
Room length RL = 8.5 m, room width RB = 5 m, room height RH = 4.5 m, mounting height EH = 3.0 m,
air flow rate = 1240 m/h, resp. 344.4 l/s
Wanted
Grille dimension B x H, room depth RT, outlet velocity veff, distance Dh, pressure drop ps,
sound power level LwA, LwNC, LwNR
Solution
The large room height allows to select the air outlet according to diagram 1, page 4 (unobstructed air stream spreading)
Result
2 off DG1, 600 150 mm, room depth RT = 8.4 m, outlet velocity veff = 2.6 m/s, Dh = RT 0.1 = 8.4 0.1 = 0.84 m,
pressure drop ps ~ 2.5 Pa, (diagram page 19,
sound power level LwA = 17 + 2 = 19 dB(A),
LwNC = 19 - 4 = 15, LwNR = 19 - 2 = 17.
More exact details for LwA and Dps see page 21.

Calculation example
Given
Room length RL = 7.0 m, Room height RH = 5.5 m, height EH = 4.0 m,
air flow rate = 1080 m/h, resp. 300 l/s, unobstructed air stream spreading, blades position 84 diverging
Wanted
Grille dimension B x H, room depth RT und RT84, outlet velocity veff, pressure drop ps, sound power level LwA, LwNC, LwNR
Solution
RT84 = 0.56 RT therefore RT = RT84/0.56 = 7/0.56 ~13 m. With this value you can select the required grille on
diagram 1, page 5: 1 off DG1, 600 x 200 mm, veff = 3.3 m/s. Of diagram page 19 follows: ps = 4 Pa,
has to be corrected to 84 diverging.
Therefore ps84 = 3.3 1.50 = 4.95 m/s 8 Pa, sound power level LwA = 34 + 3 = 37 dB(A), LwNC = 37 - 4 = 33,
LwNR = 37 - 2 = 35. More exact details for LwA and Dps see page 21.

If the temperature in the air stream is warmer or cooler, the air stream will rise or drop accordingly. This drop or rise of the air
stream can bewidely controlled by adjusting the horizontal blades of the diffusion grille. Divergently set diffusion grilles reduce
the air stream deviation y.
Diagram 9 shows that the mixing of primary air with secondary air is very intensive. This results in a temperature adjustment between non-isothermal air stream and room temperature. So is i.e. the difference of temperature in the axial air
stream after reaching the throw of air QL0.5 = 0.35 Q/v".

Recommendation
a) In the heating and/or cooling cases veff >
= 1.5 m/s (always use divergent control blade arrangement)
b) Use DGVAR or DGSELF when room height RH >
= 4.0 m
Calculation example
Air flow rate = 330 m/h, resp. 91.7 l/s, DG1, 600 100 mm, room depth RT = 4.8 m, diagram 1, page 5, veff = 2 m/s.
Q at the grille is 4 K(-), therefore air stream drop Y20 = 1.15 m.
Problems are mainly encountered where cooled air is to be supplied through grilles. To avoid undue drop of the cold
air stream in the occupied zone, following rules can help:
Select grilles with outlet velocity as high as possible. Select several small grilles iinstead of one or two large ones.
Install grilles as high as possible above floor at alternative levels. Incline the horizontal blades at the back of the grille
in order to compensate for any air stream drop or direct the cold air along ceiling level (refer also to following explanations 'Grilles installed at ceiling level'). Adjust the vertical blades at the grille front in opposed positions, to increase air
entrainment and hence to achieve better mixing of the cold air stream with secondary air (drop at the air stream terminal point y ~ 0,85 Y20 ).

For single grille at the duct terminal point, select: DG1 or DG6
dgl 12

Where small air velocities vk1 and small pressure differences in the duct prevail DG1. Minor air flow adjustments are
possible by turning horizontal blades (< 20 Pa).
Where pressure and velocity fluctuations are to be expected, select grilles with volume control devices: DG6.
1.2 Air flow direction in the duct is perpendicular to the air discharge direction at the grille
If a grille or several diffusion grilles are built into an air duct in this way, then on the one hand the air must be discharged
evenly over the entire grille area and, on the other hand, the same volumetric air flow be discharged from all grilles. It is
possible to satisfy these conditions in all cases when the various diffusion grille types are correctly employed.
vk2
We differentiate between
a) Pressure duct
veff
veff
veff
Ducts with large cross sectional area. Air velocity in duct is smaller than the outlet velocity at the grille
vk2 < v", therefore: DG6
Ideal air distribution at the grille:
vk2 < 0.5 veff
Efficient air distribution at the grille: vk2 < 0.8 veff
b) Flow duct
(see also description of prospectus DG5)
Ducts with large cross sectional area. Air velocity in duct is larger than the outlet velocity at the grille
vk2 > v", therefore: DG5, DG7 oder DG17
DG5
Suitable for airconditioning systems, offers wide volume control.
vk2 < 2.5 veff
Efficient air distribution at the grille:
vk2 < 5.2 veff
DG7 and DG17
Suitable for warm air heating systems and industrial applications.
vk2 < 1.8 veff

Note: See page 21 for information on vK2
1.3 In supply air grilles, we recommend setting up active and passive zones, e.g. 1 m active, 1 m passive 1 m active and so
on. This reduces the room depth (air throw) by as much as 66% (depending on the nominal height H).
1.4 Diffusion grille DGVAR or DGSELF with temperature-dependent air stream deflection.
We recommend the use of the DGVAR or DGSELF type when the room height RH >
= 4.0 m.
2.
Exhaust air
2.1 Single grilles: DG3 or DG1, eventually DG13. Several grilles for one duct, with small pressure differentials only: DG1
(Minor air flow adjustments are possible by changing the position of the horizontal blades at the grille front). Several
grilles for one duct: DG8 or DG7.

Technical Data
Example (to page 19)
Given
Outlet velocity veff

Grille type
Grille size B H
Position of blades
Air velocity in the duct vk2
Wanted
a) pressure drop ps (static pressure drop in the duct in front of the diffuser)
b) sound power level LwA of one diffuser, LwNC, LwNR
Solution
Page 19
Handling: veff corr. = 2.9 1.2 = 3.48 m/s (count with f4, because the blades ar in opposed position).
By DG5, veff corr. = 3.48 m/s and vk2 = 6.0 m/s can be determined ps and LwA.
Conclusion
= 2.9 m/s
= DG5
= 600 50 mm
= opposed position
= 6.0 m/s
a) pressure drop ps = 43 Pa (static pressure drop in the duct in front of the diffuser)
b) sound power level LwA = 54 dB(A). This value corresponds to a grille B x H = 600 x 100 mm. Of the table
'correction of the grille dimension' we see:
f1 = A = 0.03 = 0.5
Ao 0.06
The result is a correction of -3 dB.
Sound power level LwA = 54 - 3 = 51 dB(A) / diffuser, LwNC = 51 - 4 = 47 dB(A), LwNR = 51 - 2 = 49 dB(A)

Technical Data
Definitions
Throw L0.5 [m]
The throw is the horizontal or vertical axial distance vL0.5 that an air stream travels from the air outlet before the maximum
stream velocity is reduced to 0.5 m/s. The average stream velocity at this point is approx. ~ 0.3 m/s. The throw varies depending on the grille size, grille configuration, outlet velocity, blades position as well as the outlet arrangement within the room.
Room depth RT [m] = L0.35
To prevent draughts, the air velocity at the opposite wall should not exceed 0.35 m/s on the axis of the air stream. In the diagrams 1, 2, 3 and 4 for the dimensioning of the grille, the room depths are determined for an air throw of L0.35. The mean air
velocity at this point is 0.15...0.2 m/s.
Our diagrams are based on the effective air velocity at the free area of the air outlet with blades in straight position. Refer also
pages 28 + 29: Determination of volume flow rate at TROX HESCO diffusion grilles.
v" = /(A r 3600) [m/s]. Whereas: = air flow rate [m/h], A = nominal area [m], = contraction factor = 0.974,
r = free area/nominal area = 0.77.
Standard single grilles
Standard single grilles are those outlets which we keep on stock and include grilles whose aspect ratio (grille length/height ) or
B/H is less than 16. Calculation according to diagram 1, pages 3, 4, 5 and diagram 2, pages 7, 8 and 9.
Continuous grilles
These are single grilles which are joint together to form continuous grille. Calculation according to diagram 3 and 4, pages 10
and 11, provided that the aspect ration B/H is greater than 16. For supply air grilles we recommend setting up alternating active and passive zones, e.g. 1 m active, 1 m passive, 1 m active and so on.
Positioning of the grilles
The supply air grilles must be positioned as to avoid that the primary air stream reaches the occupied zone and that light fittings, beams, columns, etc. obstruct or deflect the air stream.
Distance D [m]
In the calculation examples above, the minimum distances D necessary between grille and side wall and between grille and
ceiling are given.
Note
Due to design changes the aerodynamic data and noise information may be subject to change.
