Ventilation Exhaust Fan CFM Calculation Formula:

Air Flow (CFM) = (Volume of Space) * ACH / (1.7)
  • CFM= Cubic Feet/Minute
  • Volume of space = area * height
  • ACH= Air Change Per Hour, it is obtained from ASHRAE 62.1 table 6-4 and table 6-1
  • Dividing by 1.7 is to convert from CMH (Cubic meter per hour) to CFM (Cubic Feet per minute)
