You might try the WW Grainger web site.  I believe it is grainger.com.  They have a lot of fans, blowers, and louvers in the catalog along with engineering charts.

Good luck.....Dave

RE: Warehouse aeration/ventilation

there are standards for ventilation published in the ASHRAE codes - in the appendix.  If not meet your situation- the rule of thumb is two complete air changes an hour- of course tempered ventilation is prefered in heating climates.
