Exhaust Fan Sizing
Exhaust Fan Sizing
(OP)
Hi all, I am sizing an exhaust fan system for a 56x25x18 ft building. The building is basically wide open inside, made of 8 inch cmu and built up roof. I am trying to figure out the cfm needed for the exhaust fan to maintain a comfortable indoor temperature during the summer. Fan will be on the roof, pulling air through louvers on the side walls. Is this a simple air changes per hour thing, or is there a detailed formula? I was thinking 6 ac/h, but it should probably be more. Any help is appeciated.

A 35ºC summer will NOT cool the room to a comfortable temperature, unless you're breeding chickens
