Default EDF Jet fan data

Hello All,

I am new to the field of EDF jets and am currently working on a new aerodynamic design using SolidWorks and Flow SImulation for aerodynamics testing. For my computer model, I can enter data for a fan that I would like to use for the thrust of my models, and I'm wondering if there are any good brand EDF manufacturers who provide a lot of technical data on their fans? Specifically, I'm looking for a curve that plots the volumetric flow rate of air vs. pressure difference created by the fan. With this information, I can create a model of the fan for simulation purposes. Would anyone have any recommendations for the best manufacturers to contact for such information?

Any help/tips greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Yes,

Contact www.edfhobbies.com

That guy has more data on fans than anyone should have ever...

They already know about EDFH... wanted to know how to measure air volume though... that's one thing that's not known

Afaik no one measures volume, I have been asked this many times over the years for non rc applications, a lot of my alloy fans are being used in industry for extraction and force feeding, especially where only 12-24v power is available.
