AX 31-160 4 Blades
Performance:
Volume - 0.5 m³/s
Pressure - 170 Pa Static Pressure
Power Frequency - 50 Hz
Results:
Following the constant static
pressure line a size 31 with 160 hub
and 4 blades needs:
• 15 degree blade pitch setting
• 2900 rpm motor
From the chart
• The operating efficiency is
between 55 and 57%
Using 2900 Motor rpm and Peak
Absorbed Power Table
• 0.18 kW peak absorbed power
Sound power falls between 68 and
66 LwA for the color matched 1770
rpm. Using the Inlet Sound table and
estimating 67 LwA with 2900 rpm,
the calculated sound power and
pressure are:
• Sound Power of 80 LwA
• Sound Pressure of 68.5 dBA
