87-12: Anomalies in Fan Efficiency Calculations Lightning ProtectionFan total efficiencies as calculated by the CTI Field Test Handbook (Chapter 5. 5) can, in certain situations, exceed 100%. This has caused confusion among specifiers and users. Therefore, efficiencies calculated from experimental data are sometimes adjusted downward to maintain credibility. The net result is that fan motor horsepower, as specified, are sometimes higher than actually needed. The reason for this anomaly is the incorrect assumption that
It is not uncommon to encounter systems where complete penetration has occurred within 4 to 8 years after initial commissioning
Pulsation on the fan ring is directly caused by the movement of the cooling tower fan
