EXH100 PERFORMANCE
(Tested at Auckland Ventilation Services,
Sept 2000, test results available on request)
Step Two: Calculate the required Free Area of the
louvre.
Free Area = Volume Flow Rate/Free Area Velocity
Free Area = 1.8 (m3/s)/4.5 (m/s) = 0.40 (m2)
Step Three: Select a suitable louvre from the Free
Area (m2) table. Some suitable louvres from
the Free Area Table are:
- 0.750m wide x 1.000m high
- 0.500m wide x 1.500m high
- 0.450m wide x 1.700m high
- 2.250m wide x 0.400m high
