Greenheck Fan 452413 manual Exhaust Air Balancing Baffles Eabb, Checking for Balance

Exhaust Air Balancing Baffles (EABB)

This is a guide to assist in determining if multiple hoods on one fan can be balanced to have equal static pressure. For multiple hoods on one fan to achieve their designed exhaust flow, all of the hoods must have equal static pressure at their designed exhaust flow.

The laws of physics force the static pressure for each branch of a duct system on one fan to always be equal. This will happen by the flow rate increasing in low static branches and decreasing in high static branches until the static pressure is equal in all branches.

Checking for Balance

Every hood with Exhaust Air Balancing Baffles (EABB) has a range for its static pressure. The low number in this range is given by the standard calculation for hood static. (Static that is printed with the CAPS submittal). The maximum increase above the low number can be calculated from the duct velocity at the low static, (also given on CAPS submittal). This is then added to the low number to get the highest static pressure possible with an EABB.

The maximum potential increase in static is given in the graph, or can be calculated from:

Max. Increase = 0.00000036 x (Duct velocity)2

After the range for each hood is calculated, it should be compared to the hood with the highest static pressure. If the highest hood falls inside of the range, then the hoods can be balanced with the EABB. If it is higher than the range, the hoods cannot be balanced.

Example 1:

Hood 1: Ps = 0.58 in. wg

Duct Velocity = 1900 FPM

Hood 2: Ps = 0.44 in. wg

Duct Velocity FPM

Duct Velocity = 1800 FPM

Hood 2 has the lower Ps, at 1800 FPM the maximum increase in Ps is 1.17. The range for Hood 2 is

0.44to 1.61. Hood 1 is less than 1.61 so these hoods can be balanced. Example 2:

Hood 3: Ps = 2.00 in. wg

Duct Velocity = 2000 FPM

Hood 4: Ps = 0.44 in. wg

Duct Velocity = 1500 FPM

Hood 4 has the lower Ps, at 1500 FPM the maximum increase in Ps is .81. The range for Hood 4 is 0.44 to 1.25. Hood 3 is higher than 1.25 so these hoods cannot be balanced.

Note 1: For many systems, an EABB may not be needed on the hood that has the highest static pressure. The exception to this is if the individual ductwork has uneven static pressures.

Note 2: When sizing the fan, use the static pressure from the highest hood and sum the CFM from all the hoods.
