Engineering Note
Recommended for HVAC only.
Close coupling of elbows and branch fittings should be avoided if at all possible. The total pressure loss of two close-coupled fittings will generally be greater than the sum of the individual fitting losses. For example: both the 45° lateral and 45° elbow individually are proved to be low loss fittings. However, when they are joined to form a 90° branch, the combined performance is not as good as a conical tee or the airflow tee. This is a particularly important point to consider because the airflow tee (this page) or conical tee (next page) is less expensive and is more compact than the combination lateral-elbow. For best economy, the designer should use the conical tee or combination tee when low branch losses are important; and the straight 90° tee should be used when a higher loss fitting can be tolerated.
