Calculation of equipment exhaust airflow
Thread Content
I need help from experts. For a device operating at normal pressure, such as a tower or a condenser, if the exhaust gas emission rate is known to be, for example, 10 KG of gas per hour, how can the air flow rate be calculated? And how should the fan be selected? I’ve looked up a lot of information, but it seems I can’t find a suitable calculation method
The volume can be calculated from the weight and density at normal pressure. Considering the issue of airtightness, wind may blow in, so the fan capacity needs to be sufficient. The wind pressure should take into account the pressure drop in the tower; it cannot be too high, otherwise it could damage the tower’s materials that are not resistant to high pressure
It can be compared to the difference in pressure of air under standard conditions! By converting 10 kg to moles, the volumetric flow rate can be calculated
