200 watt fan enough for 9.6 kW duct heater?

wrote: I have a 2x2 feet 200 watt square box fan. I measured its power consumption with a Kill-a-watt watt meter, and it measured at about 205 watts on the highest setting. It perceptibly blows a lot of air and creates quite a wind. Keeping in mind that I have not yet even received the heater... Would a 200 watt fan move enough air to cool down a 9.6 kW coil? thanks i 200 watts would be enough, if the blade design is right for the application. The volume and velocity of air required depends on several variables: desired hot surface temperature (coil) hot surface area back pressure My 100,000 BTU/hr (29.3 KW) unit heater has about a 200 watt fan on it. It also has a lot of heat exchanger area. |
