What is Fan Wind Speed?

Fan wind speed is the velocity at which air is moved by a fan. It is a crucial factor in determining the effectiveness of a fan in ventilating a space or cooling an environment. The speed at which a fan moves air can be influenced by the fan’s size, shape, and RPM.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ WS = \frac{3.14159 \times 4 \times 1200 \times 60}{5280} \approx 171.36 \]

The Fan Wind Speed is approximately 171.36 miles per hour.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ WS = \frac{3.14159 \times 3 \times 1500 \times 60}{5280} \approx 160.65 \]

The Fan Wind Speed is approximately 160.65 miles per hour.
