The example shown here is for a 630mm axial flow fan (AP Series) running at 24 rev/sec in Type D installation (fully ducted).
It illustrates a duty of 2.5 m
3
/s at 150Pa static pressure.
1
Diameter of fan: 63cm (630mm)
2
Fan speed: 4 poles (24 rev/sec)
3
Number of blades: 5
4
Hub diameter: 150mm
5
Air volume flow: 2.5m
3
/s
6
Static pressure: 150 Pa
no correction is required as the curve
is plotted for Type D installation.
7
Duty point:
The point where the air volume flow line
intersects with the static pressure line.
8
Estimated sound: 66dB(A)
Estimated sound is the value
(in the circle) which is the closest to the
duty point.
9
Blade angle setting: 20°
The blade angle is determined by interpolating
a curve between the two defined blade angle
curves either side of duty point. (Solid blue curve)
10
Fan impeller absorbed power: P
R
= 0.65kW.
The fan impeller power is determined by interpolating
a curve between the two defined AkW curves either
side of the duty point (broken black curve).
11
Dynamic pressure: 39Pa
Dynamic pressure is the Y-axis value where the dynamic pressure
curve intersects the vertical line between air flow and duty point.
The Fan Total efficiency can be calculated by using the formula:
where:
