An air-conditioning system employs horizontal, round sheet metal ducts of 6 and 12 in. diameter. What is the pressure change in a 400 ft³/min flow of 70°F air through a sudden enlargement from the 6 in. to the 12 in. duct? What is the frictional pressure drop caused by this enlargement? Find the corresponding quantities in a 400 ft³/min flow through a sudden contraction between these duct sizes.
