Unless otherwise idencified, fan performance data are 5 based on dry air at standard conditions 14.696 psi and 70 § F (0.075 Ibm/ft*). In actual applications, the fan may be re- ; quired to handle air or gas at some other density. The change in density may be because of temperature, composition of | the gas, or altitude. As indicated by the Fan Laws, the fan i performance is affected by gas density. With constant size r and speed, the horsepower and pressure varies directly as the ¥ ratio of gas density to the standard air density. 12 The application of the Fan Laws for a change in fan speed, N,for a specific size fan is shown. The computed P, curve is derived from the base curve. For example, point E(N, = 650) is computed from point D(N, = 600) as follows: AtD, Q, =6 and P,, = 450 Using Fan Law la at point E Q, =6 x 650/600 = 6,5 Using Fan Law 1b P,, = 450 x (650/600)? = 530 The completed P,,, N = 650 curve thus may be generated by computing additional points from data on the base curve. such as point G from point F df equivalent points of rating are joined, as shown by the dotted lines, these points will all lie on parabolas which are defined by the relationship expressed in Eq 1 600 COMPUTED o@ 2 3 ty 3S BASE Ptr CURVE (M = 600) TOTAL PRESSURE, Pig Pa {Pip IN.
