Tangential wheels optimization



	How to: Select the optimum wheel diameter, wheel length and running speed to provide the desired CFM for your system

1.) For specified wheel dimensions, a
change in speed will optimize your system:

2.) If the static pressure is acceptable,
wheel length can be optimized
(while other conditions remain constant):
Select wheel length

3.) If the static pressure is not acceptable,
wheel diameter must be resized using:
Check static pressure

HP = Horsepower
SP = Static Pressure
    (inches of water)
L = Wheel Length
    (inches)
D = Wheel Diameter
