Let’s build a fan curve! We’ll start by collecting data on a real fan, and then use the fan laws to extrapolate all the require data. Then we’ll use the curves to size up fans and motors, and along the way we’ll look into efficiencys, safety margins, density, and even system effect. We condensed a wealth of knowledge into 1 video that connects all the dots.
