Airstream velocity across and through your burner's mixing plates must be kept uniform and within desired limits by use of a silhouette profile plate through which the burner fires. A 6" (minimum) profile plate should be installed surrounding the interior duct walls at the leading edge of your burners mixing plates. Optimum design ranges for the various burner types are shown in the above graphs. Velocities (SFPM) are measured with a velometer directly in the duct at the plane of the profile plate and leading edge of burner mixing plates. To determine profile opening areas, add burner displacement areas (Ft2/section) from Table 1 for your complete burner assembly to "Net Free Area" of your duct: "Net Free Area" of Duct (Ft ) = Fan Volume (SCFM) Velocity (SFPM) Net Free Area (Ft2) + Burner Displacement (Ft2) = Profile Area (Ft2) Various duct size/profile area relationships may give slightly different field site data than is shown in Table 2. Velocities should always be confirmed and established by use of a velometer on actual field site installation.
