Engineering
HVAC Heat Load Calculator
Estimates the heating or cooling load for a room or building in BTU/hr based on floor area, ceiling height, insulation quality, temperature difference, and window area. Use it to size furnaces, air conditioners, and heat pumps.

Engineering
HVAC Duct Sizing Calculator
Calculate the required diameter or dimensions of HVAC ducts based on air flow rate and design velocity. Use this when designing ventilation systems to balance air delivery with noise and pressure loss constraints.
