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!

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

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.
