ASHRAE sells a standalone desktop application. Many workflows involve using the app to look up specific, complex fitting coefficients and manually pasting those values into an Excel master static pressure profile sheet.
: Used to find the exact fitting code and match the closest geometric ratio.
Your fan static pressure—and your schedule—will thank you.
When air moves through a straight duct, it experiences friction loss. When it hits a fitting—like an elbow, tee, or transition—the air changes direction or velocity, causing dynamic pressure loss. ASHRAE defines this loss using a dimensionless coefficient ( ). The pressure loss ( ) is calculated using the formula: Δp=C×pvdelta p equals cap C cross p sub v Many fittings lack exact matches for your dimensions
: Includes visual outlines for each fitting, ensuring engineers select the correct geometry for their specific design.
By following this guide, you'll be able to effectively use the ASHRAE Duct Fitting Database in Excel to calculate pressure losses in duct systems and improve the accuracy of your HVAC designs.
The front-facing sheet where engineers input specific project data. A clean interface requires minimal manual entry: Fitting Code Description Dimensions (in) Velocity (FPM) (in. w.g.)

Format the exact in Excel.
For complex fittings where the loss coefficient changes dynamically with the Reynolds number, standard VLOOKUP might not be enough. Writing custom VBA scripts or using Excel's built-in advanced algorithms can automate curve-fitting equations.
Once saved, you can call this formula directly inside any cell worksheet just like a native function: =GetAshraeCoefficient("SR3-1", 1.5) . Designing a Professional Duct Calculator User Interface

If you need to continue to work with your ideas in another document format, simply export your mind map with a mouse click. No need to re-create data!
To better understand how your mind map gets exported, you can easily apply a numbering scheme. Rearranging your branches will update that number scheme automatically.
Select between different style templates and formats when exporting. You can even control which content to include or exclude. When writing an essay, exporting to Word can even include citations, bibliographies and a chosen academic format (APA, MLA etc.).
You can even import from documents such as Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Project and Excel.
MindView allows you to swap your mind map to another view such as a timeline, Work Breakdown Structure or Gantt chart.
All of your data will be intact, and you can keep editing in any view.
This is very helpful when communicating or presenting to an audience that requires the ideas visualized or portrayed in a different layout.
From a project management perspective, you can start by creating a work breakdown structure in the mind map, then swap to the Gantt chart for scheduling. You can even present the Gantt chart as a timeline. Very flexible and time saving!
