  • Page 11: Appendix C - Airflow Volume Calculations

    APPENDIX C - AIRFLOW VOLUME CALCULATIONS To calculate cubic feet per minute (CFM) from a measured air velocity (FPM), you need the calculated cross-sectional area of the air f ow stream: Volume Flow (CFM) = Velocity (FPM) X Area (sq ft). In a rectangular duct this cross sectional area equals the Width times the Height.

  • Page 17: Appendix G- Viewing And Capturing Data

    APPENDIX G- VIEWING AND CAPTURING DATA (IF EQUIPPED WITH EITHER USB OR RS232 OUTPUTS) There are many ways to capture the serial port data from the Instrument. The simplest method is to use a terminal emulator program. Using a terminal emulator allows the serial COM poirt to be opened, with the above port settings, and real-time data to be viewed from the instrument.
