Fan Power Calculation

Fan power calculation is the process of determining the amount of power required to operate a fan in various applications, such as ventilation, air conditioning, and industrial systems. The power required depends on factors like airflow rate, pressure, fan efficiency, and the type of fan used. The general formula for fan power is:

$latex P = \frac{Q \cdot \Delta P}{\eta} $

Where:

• $P$ is the fan power (in watts),
• $Q$ is the volumetric airflow rate (in cubic meters per second),
• $\Delta P$ is the pressure difference (in Pascals),
• $\eta$ is the efficiency of the fan.

Accurate fan power calculation is essential for selecting the right fan, optimizing energy use, and ensuring system performance.
