    This document provides a formula to calculate air flow rate (Q) of a fan when the power (Pt) and differential pressure are known. The formula accounts for fan efficiency (eff), gas density, and dust content to derive flow rate from power divided by total pressure differential times densities times a conversion factor. Plugging in sample values of 270 kW power, 0.9 efficiency, 1 kg/m3 gas and dust densities yields a calculated flow rate of 110 m3/s or 397,554 m3/h.

    Find Air flow of Fan when know Power & Diff pressure

    N = [(Q x Pt)/eff.] x [gas density (kg/m3) + dust in gas (kg/m3)] x [9.81/1000]


    Pt 270 Diff Total pressure; Pt = Ps + Pd (mmWg)
    N 650 Fan power consumption (kW)
    Q ?? Flow rate at inlet (m3/s)
    eff 0.9 Fan efficiency (normally 0.85-0.9)
    Gas density 1.0 (kg/m3) ==> need to check Ps and Temp
    Dust content 1.0 (kg/m3)
    Q (m3/s) 110 m3/s
    397,554 m3/h
