4.3 Measurement of the air volume and wind pressure
Mitsubishi measures the machine's air volume and wind pressure with a device as shown below according to the Japan
Industrial Standards (JIS B 8628).
Measuring device using orifice (JIS B 8628 standards)
Test unit
Blower
Measurement method
The unit is operated with the throttle device fully closed. There is no air flow at this time, and the air volume is 0. The maximum
point of the static pressure (A point, the static pressure at this point is called the totally closed pressure) can be obtained. Next,
the throttle device is gradually opened, the auxiliary fan is operated, and the middle points (points B, C and D) are obtained.
Finally, the throttle device is completely opened, and the auxiliary fan is operated until the static pressure in the chamber
reaches 0. The maximum point of the air volume (point E, the air volume at this point is called the fully opened air volume) is
obtained. The points are connected as shown below, and are expressed as air volume, static pressure curves (Q-H curve).
