'AirDiffuser' is an application program that can select air ceiling diffuser in air conditioning facilities quickly, and easily. It is an easy operation only of the choice of the apparatus to be examined from the list, the input of the amount of the wind, and doing the calculation button the tap. It is possible to calculate to examine the velocity of the wind to select the size of apparatus and to examine the amount of the wind. Please use it for the reference when air ceiling diffuser is selected when the blueprint and the working drawing, etc. are made. It is possible to take an active part by various scenes like the site and meeting, etc. [Feature] - The size of apparatus can be easily selected only by inputting the amount of the wind and pushing the calculation button. - It corresponds to various apparatuses. (Round Diffuser,Square Diffuser,BL,CL,VHS,HS,OAG,EAG,Smoke Damper) - The aperture rate of default can be changed to an arbitrary aperture rate. - The velocity of the wind of default can be changed to an arbitrary velocity of the wind. - The velocity of the wind can be examined by fixing by an arbitrary size of apparatus. - The amount of the wind can be reversely calculated by fixing an arbitrary size of apparatus and the velocity of the wind. - When size L is selected, BL and CL round length and are computable. - This application is calculated by metric system. - Please see the support site in detail.

About

DuctChecker

Easily calculate duct dimensions using various engineering methods like constant pressure, static pressure regain, total pressure, and velocity. This tool simplifies complex duct design calculations, typically found in flow diagrams or slide rules.

Highlights
  • Constant pressure method calculation
  • Static pressure regain method
  • Total pressure method
  • Velocity method
  • Duct dimension determination
  • Simplified duct design
Features
Read full description

To determine the size of the duct constant pressure method, static pressure regain method, total pressure method, velocity method. Generally uses constant pressure method. This constant pressure method is how to determine the duct dimensions using the same value per 1 m on all duct friction loss. Usually determined by flow diagrams or duct design for slide rules. You can easily determine the duct by using this program.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: DuctChecker at every 4 months against AirDiffuser's every 60 months. AirDiffuser's advantage is price ($2.99 vs $6.99) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
