Calculate the brake kw of the fan if efficiency is given


A centrifugal fan is to be used to take a flue gas at rest (zero velocity) and at a temperature of 352.6 K and a pressure of 749.3 mm Hg and discharge this gas at a pressure of 800.1 mm Hg and a velocity of 38.1 m/s. The volume flow rate of gas is 56.6 std m^3/min of gas (at 294.3 K and 760 mm Hg). Calculate the brake kW of the fan if its efficiency is 65% and the gas has a molecular weight of 30.7. Assume incompressible flow.
