OUTLINE OF DESIGN PROCEDURE
The data underlying the design procedure aregiven indetail in a circular* issued by the University of Illinois. In this procedure the design of the warm-air duct system js considered as an entire unit, so that for a given _h_e_a_t_l_o_ss the sizes of leaders, s} tacks, boots, stackheads, and registers are

Recommended Standard Sizes
For the purpose of simplification and standardization, selected com binations of commercial sizes of warm air pipes, return air pipes, ducts, grilles, fittings, and registers are designated as units. The unit numbers assigned and the combinations selected as standard are listed in the following tables3:
Table 2--Units 1 to 5--First Story Warm Air Ducts and Registers. Table 3--Units 11 to 16--Second Story Warm Air Ducts, Single Wall Stacks, Fit tings, and Registers. Table 4--Units 21 to 24--Second Story Warm Air Ducts, Double Wall Stacks, Fittings, and Registers. Table 5--Units 31 to 38--Returns Air Ducts, Fittings, and Grilles.
The selected types of boots are shown in Fig. 2. 'It is essential that free areas be maintained throughout fittings..
The selected types of return .air ducts and fittings are shown in Fig. 3.
Carrying Capacity
The Btu carrying capacities of the selected units of warm air and return air combinations are shown in Tables 6, 7 and 8:
Table 6--Units 1 to 5--Warm Air Carrying Capacities to first story registers witli 1 to 5 elbows and with leaders 4 to 24 ft long.
Table 7--Units 11 to 16 and 21 to 24--Warm Air Carrying Capacities to second story registers with 1 to 5 elbows and with leaders 4 to 24 ft long.
Table 8--Units 31'to-38--Return Air Carrying Capacities for types A, B, C, D and E . return combinations.
