  2. Review of Formula Terms • a = sectional area of airway, in square feet (ft.2) • l = length of airway, in feet (ft.) • o = perimeter of airway, in feet (ft.) • s = rubbing surface, in square feet (ft2) • v = velocity of air current, in feet per minute (fpm) • q = quantity of air, in cubic feet per minute (cfm)

  3. COMMON AREA FORMULAS • Rectangular or Square Dimension: Area = Height X Width Note: Please remember to convert inches into the decimal equivalent of one foot - inches divided by 12

Solution: Area = Top Width + Bottom WidthX Height 2 A = 17’ + 20’ x 4.5’ 2 A = 37’ x 4.5’ 2 A = 18.5’ x 4.5’ A = 83.25 sq. ft. Practice Problems 17’ 4’6’’ 20’

  11. COMMON AREA FORMULAS - Circle • Circular: A = ¶ x D2 4 or A = ¶ xR2 Please use the following For Pi……… ¶ = 3.1416 diameter radius

  12. Determine the area of a circle that has an diameter of 20 feet 9inches. Solution: A = ¶ xR2 R = 20.75 = 10.375 2 A = 3.1416 x 10.3752 A = 3.1416 x 107.640 A = 338.16 sq. ft. Practice Problems –Area ; Circle R

  13. Determine the area of a circular air shaft with a diameter of 20 feet Solution: A = ¶ xR2 R = 20 = 10 2 A = 3.1416 x 102 A = 3.1416 x 100 A = 314.16 sq. ft. Area - Circle 20”

  14. Determine the area of a circle that has an diameter of 17 feet. Solution: A = ¶ x r2 R = 17 = 8.5 2 A = 3.1416 x 8.52 A = 3.1416 x 72.25 A = 226.98 sq. ft. Practice Problems 17’

  15. Perimeters • Square or Rectangle o = Top Width + Bottom Width + Side 1 + Side 2 Remember, perimeter measured in linear feet

  16. Determine the perimeter of an entry 7 feet high and 22 feet wide. Solution: o = Top Width + Bottom Width + Side 1 + Side 2 o = 22’ + 22’ + 7’ + 7’ o = 58 feet Practice Problem – Perimeter ; Rectangle 7 ft. 22 ft.
