Required torque of the fan
From the data entered and the load characteristic selected the DSD calculates the required torque.
[7-174] Load characteristics of the fan
Calculation of the torque for a quadratic load characteristic (M ≈ n²):
[7-175] Equation 3: Torque for a quadratic load characteristic
Calculation of the torque for a constant load characteristic (M ≈ constant):
[7-176] Equation 4: Torque for a constant load characteristic

Tip!
Further equations to complete the calculations required for an application can be found in
the chapter " Basic calculations ". ( 68)
• The host computer "Energy efficiency fan/pump" serves to compare the energy de-
mand in an inverter-controlled and mechanically controlled system.
