Webinar Highlights
Fundamentals of Pressure and Flow
Learn how differential pressure drives airflow through leaks, holes, and HVAC systems. The session explains the relationships between pressure, flow rate, and system resistance—essential for interpreting CFM readings.
"Hole Flow" Demonstrations
Using cardboard boxes with calibrated leaks and a fan, the presenters demonstrate how airflow scales with pressure. These real-time experiments reinforce how pressure differentials translate into measurable flow rates.
Simple Pressure & Flow Tools
The webinar showcases how basic setups—like manometers, tape, tubing, and standard fans—can yield meaningful data without needing complex equipment.
Interactive Q&A on Practical Testing
Attendees’ field questions are addressed extensively. Topics include:
Scaling experiments to field-sized applications
Troubleshooting airflow curve inconsistencies
Techniques for validating duct or envelope leakage setups and readings
Key Takeaways
Understand the physics: Seeing how flow changes with pressure sharpens your ability to diagnose leaks in buildings and duct systems.
Hands-on learning works: Experimenting with simple setups builds deep insight into airflow behavior and measurement techniques.
Transferrable skills: What you learn with cardboard “leaks” translates directly to real-world tests, helping you interpret results confidently.
