Lindab GTI Nozzle Diffuser

Lindab-GTI-Nozzle-Diffuser-PRODUCT

Description

GTI is a flexible supply air nozzle that is suitable for the ventilation of large areas. The nozzle can be used for both heated and cooled air and can be adjusted from diffused to concentrated supply air patterns. The supply air pattern can be adjusted by turning the insert in relation to the central line of the nozzle. The nozzle is equipped with Lindab Safe and can be installed directly into a circular duct, fitting, wall or duct side.

  • Flexible nozzle for cooling and heating
  • Adjustable dispersal pattern
  • Simple installation

Maintenance

The visible parts of the diffuser can be wiped with a damp cloth.

Materials and finish

  • Insert: Steel
  • Connection: Galvanised steel
  • Standard finish: Powder-coated
  • Standard color: RAL 9003 or 9010, gloss 30

The diffuser is available in other colors. Please contact Lindab’s sales department for further information.

Technical data

Capacity
Volume flow qv [l/s] and [m3/h], total pressure Δpt [Pa], throw l0.3 [m] and sound power level LWA [dB(A)] can be seen in the diagrams.

Throw l0.3
Throw l0.3 can be seen in the diagrams for isothermal air at a terminal velocity of 0.3 m/s.

Resulting sound effect level
The sound effect level from the nozzles must be added logarithmically to the sound effect level from the flow noise in the duct. See sample calculation, section Nozzle calculations.

The frequency-related sound effect level
The sound effect level in the frequency band is defined as LWA + Kok Kok values are given in charts beneath the diagrams on the following pages.

Resulting sound effect level
To calculate the resulting sound effect level from the nozzles, add the sound effect level from the nozzles (LWA nozzle) and the sound effect level from the flow noise in the duct (LWA duct) logarithmically.

Difference to be added to the highest dB value (dB).

Lindab-GTI-Nozzle-Diffuser-FIG-9

Sample calculation:

  • LAD-200 q = 100 l/s
  • ΔPt nozzle 90 Pa

Duct size:
In order to achieve a sensible distribution of the air out to the nozzles without using a damper, it is recommended that the pressure loss in the nozzle be 3 times higher than the dynamic pressure in the duct system.

  • Selected duct dimension: Ø 400
  • Number of nozzles at joint: 6
  • Volume of air in the duct: 6×100 = 600 l/s
  • LWA duct (can be seen in diagram 1): 43 dB(A)
  • LWA nozzle (can be seen in product diagram): 37 dB(A)
  • Difference between db values: 6 dB(A)
  • Value to be added to the highest dB value (diagram 2): 1 dB(A)

Resulting sound effect level: 43 +1 = 44 dB(A)

Extension of throw for two nozzles, positioned side by side:
If two nozzles are positioned next to each other, the air jets will be amplified, thereby extending the throw. To calculate this, use the diagram below, in which the distance between the nozzles is designated D. The calculation factor K4 must be multiplied by the throw l0.3. The throw is not extended further with more nozzles.

Lindab-GTI-Nozzle-Diffuser-FIG-10

Sample calculation

  • LAD-125. Distance D = 1.5 metres.
    Volume of air: q = 15 l/s
  • Diagram throw under selected nozzle
    Specified throw: l0.3 = 7 m
    D [m] / l0.3[m]: 1.5 / 7 = 0.21
  • K4 calculation factor
    Can be seen in the diagram: K4 = 1.25
  • Resulting throw
    K4 x l0.3 = 1.25 x 7 m = 8.75 m
