after the fact. I sure have. After rethinking this I've made a list and I'm pissed I didn't have more time, I would have:

- measured the air flow from the fan with a wind gauge

- tested both sides

- tested with and without the shrouds

- found a set of RS4's and/or AWE's to compare

- actually put them on a bench

- recoreded tenths

- cleaned the stockers

It wasn't a labratory flow test/efficiency test, but it isn't throw away data either. Hopefully it's value to at least one person with similar opjectives as mine.

Excellent testing! One question... were the stockers clean inside? - reefer_bob 2006-09-02 11:38:24 (132 views)

Ah.. good question... - LI-S4 2006-09-02 14:06:58 (187 views)

Another thing, is I would isolate the IPPs from the concrete floor... It might skew your numbers. - reefer_bob 2006-09-02 15:26:19 (136 views)

Or the stockers are getting benefit of air flow under the "bottom" against the floor while the IPP - Beeman'S4 2006-09-02 19:36:29 (83 views)

Consider the area you're talking about in that case. - Flyboy 2006-09-05 08:50:01 (110 views)
