Efficiency calculation of FD fan in radiator


Given:
Inlet air temperature:
Density of inlet air
Velocity of air at inlet
Total power consumed
fan motor efficiency
pressure inside the radiator ducts
Area of radiator inlet duct
Area of radiator outlet duct

32C
1.157Kg/m^3
7.9m/s
75Hp
72.50%
180mmwc
640*640 mm
810*600 mm

Step 1
Density of air at 32C:
=(273*1.293)/(T+273)

Density of air at 0

=(273*1.293)/(32+273)
=1.157Kg/m^3
Step2
Efficiency of fan motor:
If motor runs at

50 Hz
36.5Hz

100% efficiency
X
X=72.5% efficient running

Step3
Calculate area of ducts

640*640

(II)

810*600
Total Area

0.4096 m2
0.486 m2
0.895m

Step 4:
Calculate air flow rate
Q=A*V
Q=0.895*7.9
Q =

m^3/sec
Step 5:

Power inlet to shaft


Kw=*Hp
Kw=0.725*75*0.745
Kw=40.50

Step 6:
Calculate efficiency of the fan:
=[(Volume in m3/sec)*(total pressure in mmwc)]/(102*power input in shaft)
1mmwc=9.81pa

1pa=0.102 mmwc
=[(7.075*180)/(102*40.50)
=(1273.5/4131)
