Hi
How is best to calculate the required airflow to a rack cupboard
The cupboard is width, depth, height - 40" x 40" x 100"
The rack is outputting 2000 BTU of heat per our
The adjoining rooms are heated to 21 degree C
Are you able to calculate how much air we would need to move out of the rack cupboard to keep it at 23 C or below ?

If you call Active Thermal Management (CA) he will help you over the phone.
If you give your email address you get a tech email every once in awhile that is pretty useful.

There is no truth anymore. Only assertions. The internet world has no interest in truth, only vindication for preconceived assumptions. |

A seat of the pants estimate that can be used is: 1CFM/square foot of floor area- this is what's used for bathrooms, but for maintaining temperature, part of the formula involves the temperature of the replacement air. If there's a large differential, less air flow is needed.
