Evaporative Cooler Calculator

Welcome to Puravent’s Mobile Evaporative Cooler Calculator, part of our extensive range of Number Crunchers designed to provide you with everything you need to make an informed decision on your next evaporative cooler purchase.

This calculator is perfect for anyone who is looking to calculate the airflow capacity of a mobile evaporative cooler required for cooling a room. By taking your room size, average air temperature and typical humidity we are able to tell you what airflow you should be looking for from an evaporative cooler. The reading will be given to you in m3/hr.

You can then use these results to browse our full range of mobile evaporative coolers. Simply click the link and use the filter systems to access what you need, or contact us directly.

Why are these results important?

You need to understand the required airflow of your evaporative cooler so that it can serve the environment you are putting it into effectively.

Heat Load	Watts	BTU
Average The Room Is A Normal Residential Room, Office, Reception Area Or Similar, Where There Is Not Overly Crowded With People, Computer And Office Equipment.
Above Average There Are Factors That Contribute To Additional Heat Being Generated In The Room E.G. Strong Lighting, Overcrowding With People And Office Equipment, Conservatory Type Room, Or Flat Roofed Room.
High There Are Factors That Contribute To A High Heat Load In The Room. E.G. Commercial Cooking, Much Computer And Server Equipment, Switchgear, Temporary Building With Thin Walls And Flat Room, Plain Glass Conservatory.

Variable	Units	Notes/Guidance
System Airflow	M3/Hr	If you have it in cfm then multiply your cfm value by 1.7 to get m3/hr
Average Combined Pressure Drop Of Filters Of Higher Than F6 Efficiency	Pascals	F8 bag filters pressure drop - typical clean clean to dirty, 160 - 250 Pascals F9 compact filters pressure drop - typical clean to dirty, 160 - 350 Pascals H10 HEPA filter pressure drop - typical clean to dirty, 250 - 600 Pascals 9.8 Pascals = 1 mm wg, & 249 Pascals = 1 inch wg
Carbon Filters Pressure Drop	Pascals	For compact type carbons pressure drop between 100 - 150 Pa Bonded carbon panels typically 150 - 170 Pa Loose granular carbon panels typically 130 Pa
Annual Operational Hours	Hrs/Annum	8760 hours in a year If operating for 5 days a week, excluding public holidays, for 12 hrs/day = 3000 hrs
Cost Of Power	Pence Per Kwh	Huge variance in what different companies pay. heck your last bill to be sure, otherwise put in 10p
Fan Efficiency	(As Decimal Value, Eg 100%=1)	Would typically be around 60%, so if you don’t have specific information use 0.6
Fan Motor Efficiency	(As Decimal Value, Eg 100%=1)	Larger motors should be around 90%, so if you don’t have specific information use 0.9

The Total Average Pressure Drop Over Your Higher Efficiency Filters And/Or Carbon Filters Is;		Pascals
This Pressure Drop Is Costing In Energy Alone	£	Per year
It Is Probable That A Sanuvox In-Duct System Could Break Down The Biological, Chemical And Odourous Contaminants On This Air Flow For Between 16 And 25% Of This Running Cost	£	Lower energy cost estimate of an equivalent Sanuvox system (16%)
	£	Higher energy cost estimate of an equivalent Sanuvox system (25%)
