Power consumption of fan at increased voltage
Power consumption of fan at increased voltage
(OP)
Hi,
Do you know what the power consumption of the 624HH Papst fan is at voltages from 18-30V?
624HH fan

Its rated 18-28V, but we intend to run it mainly at 30V. The boss says so.
(we only know it draws 3.6W at 24v input)

RE: Power consumption of fan at increased voltage
Power consumption change with voltage change really depends on what sort of brushless controller is provided, as the electronics that do brush switching could be a constant speed, or speed proportional to voltage. The load is a fan so Fan Laws apply.
Running a motor rated for 28 Volts at 30 volts is possible, but you run a risk of letting the magic smoke out.
Type
624 HH
Nominal voltage VDC 24
Nominal voltage range VDC 18 .. 28
Speed (rpm) min -1 8200
Power consumption W 3.6
Air flow m3/h 56 (free air)
RE: Power consumption of fan at increased voltage
So power will remain the same within 10% as nothing is that accurate at 3.6W...
Also the fan curve don't give you the power curve so it will depend on flow and dP across the fan.
Is it really that important to know??
Remember - More details = better answers
Also: If you get a response it's polite to respond to it.

I think one would call it a "brushless DC motor". A permanent magnet DC motor has brushes.

And now i am ashamed of myself, because there is (generally) a difference between a PMDC and a BLDC, and i have forgotten it....
I think a PMDC has sinusoidal air gap field, but a BLDC has trapezoidal air gap field?

BL = "brushless"
A normal permanent-magnet conventional DC motor has a fixed permanent-magnet stator and a wound-rotor with a commutator and brushes. It can be fed plain ordinary DC power from a battery without any fancy schmancy electronics involved, and work.
A normal brushless motor has a permanent-magnet rotor and a wound stator which has to be fed AC in order to work. It is not a DC motor at all - it is an AC synchronous motor with an electronic controller that serves the commutating function (to chop up DC into the AC that the windings need in order for them to work. Viewed as a complete assembly together with the electronic controller that makes it work, that's how it looks like a DC motor.

I think that's true. But the details are a bit muddy to me.

TPS54070 have current limit also, so may add current protection.
