ENGINEERING DESIGN CALCULATION - DENNIS KIRK

CENTRIFUGAL FAN PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS

[Typically up to 0.5 psi (3.5 kPa)]
CLIENT:
PROJECT:
TITLE:
Shaft Power
P [kW] = Q [m3/sec] x dP [kPa] / Effy
Vary Speed
Capacity varies directly with speed
Pressure varies with square of speed
Power varies with cube of speed
Vary Temperature
Pressure varies inversely with absolute temp
Power varies inversely with absolute temperature
Vary Density
Pressure varies with density
Power varies with density

V 1.000

Instructions:
Enter the fan Design conditions in the first calculation
block by filling out the yellow cells.
Check alternate operating conditions using the other
calculation blocks.
