    Exercises Problem 6 Fans and Blowers

    Uploaded by

    Ariel Gamboa
    This document contains an engineering problem involving the calculation of discharge volume from a sewerage aeration blower under different operating conditions. The blower is initially operating at 3500 rpm with a discharge volume of 567 cu.m/min. During the summer, the atmospheric temperature rises to 43°C while the pressure remains the same. The problem is to determine the new discharge volume if the blower speed is varied to maintain the original discharge pressure of 158 kPa. The given information and calculations are provided. The solution found the new blower speed would be 3367.88 rpm and the resulting discharge volume is 9.1 cu.m/s.

    Problem:
    A sewerage aeration blower rotating at 3500 rpm is designed to deliver 567 cu.m/min of
    air from 20 deg C and 1 atm to a discharge of 158 kPaa with an adiabatic efficiency of
    65%. During summer the atmospheric temperature rises to 43 deg C but the barometric
    pressure does not change. It is desired to vary the blower speed to maintain the same
    discharge pressure. Determine the discharge volume of standard air with the new
    head? Ans. 9.1 cu.m/s
