Improving Fan System Performance
Book Description
Improving Fan System Performance is designed to provide fan system users with a reference outlining opportunities to improve system performance. It is not intended to be a comprehensive technical text on improving fan systems, but rather a document that makes users aware of potential performance improvements, provides some practical guidelines, and details where the user can find more help. The sourcebook is divided into three main sections and appendices.
For users unfamiliar with the basics of fans and fan systems, a brief discussion of the terms, relationships, and important system design considerations is
provided. This section describes the key factors involved in fan selection and system design and provides an overview of different types of fans and the applications for which they generally used. Users already familiar with fan system operation may want to skip this section. The key terms and parameters used in selecting fans, designing systems, and controlling fluid flow are discussed
