¬Velocities
in ductwork calibrated to achieve velocities consistent with typical air flows and isokinetic air
sampling.

tTypical air
flows in commercial buildings: 10-20%
Outdoor Air/80-90% Recirculating Air
wFlowrates Achieved: 22% Outdoor Air/88% Recirculating Air

tIsokinetic
Sampling: “equal-velocity” sampling
wnozzle tip opening area (An) and sample volumetric flowrate (Qm) must be adjusted to obtain a
velocity Vn = Qm/An equal to the gas stream velocity (Vs) at the point of
sampling
