ASHRAE Guideline 16-2003 -- Selecting Outdoor, Return, and Relief Dampers for Air-Side Economizer Systems
ASHRAE Guideline 16-2003 for choosing and sizing air control dampers!

Product Details
Control damper selection and sizing are a critical first step in the design of control systems, but many designers select economizer outdoor air, return air, and relief/exhaust air damper sizes and damper action based on rules of thumb that are not valid or valid only for certain applications.
ASHRAE Guideline 16-2003, Selecting Outdoor, Return, and Relief Dampers for Air-Side Economizer Systems, provides techniques for properly selecting dampers for the most common economizer relief system applications (return fans, relief fans and non-powered relief) and minimum outdoor air control strategies.
This guide addresses the application and sizing of outdoor, return and relief dampers used to control outdoor air intake for economizer cooling, minimum ventilation outdoor airflow for indoor air quality and building pressure. 17pp.
