How Can Air Throw Distance for Fans Be Calculated?

AI Thread Summary
Calculating air throw distance for fans involves understanding various parameters such as fan diameter, volumetric flow rate, temperature, RPM, and power. The user suggests using a formula based on Newton's laws, specifically 0=ma-cv^2, but expresses uncertainty about its application. They mention finding limited resources online, including a specific formula applicable only to certain fans. Additionally, they seek information on the coefficient of friction between air and air, which is crucial for accurate calculations. Overall, the discussion emphasizes the need for reliable formulas and coefficients to determine air throw distance effectively.

Hello Everybody.

I have a problem.

I study calculate air throw distance for FANs. How can I calculate it?

So I have some data below.

Fan Diameter
Volumetric flow rate (m^3/h)
Temperature
RPM
Power

Please send me note or documents If you have any.

Thanks for your help.

I did some internet search and found only this.
Note that they say the formula is applicable for only "their" fans.

Maybe Ashrae has some info for HVAC systems regarding a single fan.

Thanks for your intertest.

As you motioned that formula given by Hartzellan Co. for only their Fans.

I try to calculate with Newtons First Laws (Motion in One Dimension or Two Dimension).

But I need coefficient of friction between air and air.
 
This is from Griffiths' Electrodynamics, 3rd edition, page 352. I am trying to calculate the divergence of the Maxwell stress tensor. The tensor is given as ##T_{ij} =\epsilon_0 (E_iE_j-\frac 1 2 \delta_{ij} E^2)+\frac 1 {\mu_0}(B_iB_j-\frac 1 2 \delta_{ij} B^2)##. To make things easier, I just want to focus on the part with the electrical field, i.e. I want to find the divergence of ##E_{ij}=E_iE_j-\frac 1 2 \delta_{ij}E^2##. In matrix form, this tensor should look like this...
Thread 'Applying the Gauss (1835) formula for force between 2 parallel DC currents'
Please can anyone either:- (1) point me to a derivation of the perpendicular force (Fy) between two very long parallel wires carrying steady currents utilising the formula of Gauss for the force F along the line r between 2 charges? Or alternatively (2) point out where I have gone wrong in my method? I am having problems with calculating the direction and magnitude of the force as expected from modern (Biot-Savart-Maxwell-Lorentz) formula. Here is my method and results so far:- This...
