Is there a way to evaluate the potential maximum air flow that an oil cooler can support? The restriction of the fins must limit the amount of air that can be reasonably moved through the cooler. I'd like to be able to evaluate an oil cooler and see if fans would be able to move enough air. As always I'm looking for quantitative analysis information.
I'm hoping 900 CFM would hopefully be enough air for this cooler. (28"x3.5"x3.5") (IMG:http://www.fluidyne.com/images/pg4e.gif) |
