For engineering firms using energy modeling software (EnergyPlus, Trane TRACE 3D+, Carrier HAP), the database now includes a cleaned-up CSV export function. The "Export Fitting Data to Text" option produces a machine-readable format without hash characters that broke older parsers.
The interface allows for immediate updates of loss coefficients and pressure drops as you input flow rates and dimensions. Project Management: ashrae duct fitting database version. 6.00.05

When using short-radius rectangular elbows, utilize the database to compare the pressure drop of the fitting with and without turning vanes. The reduction in fan energy often justifies the fabrication cost.
Navigate through the visual menu to select the shape (round, flat oval, rectangular) and specific fitting configuration.
