Centrifugal Blower Test Set
Bench-top centrifugal blower test set for studying pressure, flow rate, efficiency, and blade type performance using industrial blower with full instrumentation.
Description
Centrifugal Blower Test Set. This a bench top unit for studying the centrifugal blower characteristics.
The unit consists of an industrial type centrifugal blower with a motor and advanced inverter, inlet and outlet ducts with flow straighteners, a damper, and measuring instruments according to BS 848 and ISO 1042. Extra blades are provided for comparison study.
Instruction manual is also included.
TYPICAL EXPERIMENTS
- Inlet and discharge pressures vs blower speed.
- Flow rate vs speed.
- Blower input, output and efficiency.
- Comparison of backward, radial, and forward blade impellers.
