I have a test application that required a high velocity (subsonic) air trough a restriction in a close loop system. I would like to know which circulating fan would be suitable (axial, centrifugal, mixed flow, turbo) since the fan will have a backpressure from the close loop arrangement.
Design parameter:
6in max pipe in a close loop (fan, restriction, elbow 180deg, intercooler, elbow 180deg, back to fan)
Medium: air at 110F and 85%RH
800 - 1200 scfm
12 psig max pressure
Restriction 2.25 in
Intercooler full pipe size after the restriction
I was thinking of a mixed flow fan used in commercial airplane for the size and capacity and pressure or a turbo arrangement where the return after the restriction would turn the exhaust inducer, and the outlet to the intercooler than back to the other side of the turbo (there will be a motor connected to the turbo)
Thanks if you can guide me on this one
