Cfm through 6 round duct.
Read round duct diameter inches and friction loss per 100 of duct inches of water.
The reason setting your duct calculator to 0 10 is such a widely used assumption is because if you look at many slide duct calculators they have a recommended residential setting at 0 10 inch of.
As systems increase in efficiency the tolerances of how we have always done it will no longer be adequate.
The 0 10 design friction rate is the most commonly passed down tradition of sizing ducts and the reason many assume a 6 inch duct delivers 100 cfm.

Sheet metal duct friction loss calculator.
For instance a 2 5 ton system approximately 400 cfm per ton would require 2 14 flexible return ducts or 1 very short flexible 18 duct to move the 1000 cfm required by the 2 5 ton system.
This online air duct calculator is used to calculate the velocity of air flow feet per minute fpm and feet per second fps through any shaped circle square or rectangle ductulator with either diameter sides or area.
The friction loss according the table above is 0 81 inches water gauge per 100 ft duct aprox.
Larger volumes or higher static pressures should be dealt with on an individual job basis.
Air duct also termed as ductulator is a passage that is used to provide fresh air into rooms buildings etc air ducts may be in circular square and in rectangular shapes.
