Axial Fan Test Rig
This equipment comprises of a Axial Flow Fan coupled to a DC motor. Power input to the DC motor is varied by means of a Thyristor controlled DC Drive to vary the RPM of motor. A RPM indicator with proximity sensor indicates the RPM if Axial Fan.
A pitot tube is provided in the delivery line of the Axial Fan for static and dynamic pressure measurement.
Experiment:
- To find out the discharge, head and efficiency of the Axial Fan
- To plot the graph Efficiency Vs Discharge
- To plot the graph Discharge Vs Head
Utilities Required:
- Electricity 1 kW, 440V AC, single Phase
- Floor Area 2.5 x 0.75 m
