FAN LAW EXAMPLES
Fan Law 1
The formula for Fan Law 1 (built into this calculator) is:
Fan laws use the temporary storage registers a, b, a-new, and b-new.
Fan Law 1 calculates using the entry of the three known variables
and
Ç R to calculate the unknown fourth value.
Example 1:
A 1,250 CFM fan is running at 750 RPM, but it needs to supply
1,400 CFM. What is the RPM required?

Example 2:
You set up a fan with a VFD for 14,000 CFM running at 855 RPM.
You change the RPM to 1050. What is new CFM?
