Obtaining the efficiency when supply air and exhaust air volumes differ
The efficiency obtained from the intake side air value in each characteristic curve can be corrected with the air volume ratio
in the chart on the right.
If the intake side and exhaust side duct lengths differ greatly or if a differential air volume is required, obtain the intake side
efficiency from the chart on the right.
