Displacement of CFM at 5km/h in 10ft x 50ft Cylinder

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around calculating the displacement of cubic feet per minute (CFM) when wind moves at a speed of 5 km/h through a cylinder with dimensions of 10 feet in diameter and 50 feet in length. The inquiry appears to be focused on the application of mathematical principles to solve a practical problem.

Discussion Character

  • Homework-related

Main Points Raised

  • One participant asks for the displacement of CFM given specific dimensions and wind speed.
  • Another participant questions the meaning of "CFM" and suggests that the original poster should be able to solve the problem independently by applying mathematical reasoning.
  • A third participant requests additional resources or links to assist in understanding the problem.
  • Another participant asks for clarification on what the original poster has attempted in their calculations.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

There is no consensus reached in the discussion. Participants express varying levels of understanding and engagement with the problem, and no definitive answers or solutions are provided.

Contextual Notes

The discussion lacks specific mathematical steps or assumptions that may be necessary for solving the problem, and there is no clear definition of CFM provided in the thread.

hello,
what would be the displacement of cfm when the wind is moving at 5km/h through a cylinder 10ft in diameter by 50 feet long. Thanks!

Welcome to PF!

What's a CFM? You should be able to figure this out easily on your own by looking at the units and applying some math.
 
mr watters could you send a link please..have been trying
 
thank you
