Calculations

Min. Smoke Flow Rate (Mf) = 0.188 x P x Y1.5

= 11.2912 kg/s

Temperature Rise (Tr) = Q / (Mf x Cp)

== 350.7388 Deg.c

Max. Smoke Temp. (Tc) = To + Tr

== 390.7388 Deg.0c 664 K

Air Volume Flow rate (Ma) = Mf x Tc / (1.2 x To)

= 19.95316 m3/s

= 42300 cfm
Note:
As per ANSI/ASHRAE standards 62.1.2004
Recommendation provide 3.7 lit/sec/m2
Parking Area= 18000 m2
139900 cfm
Shall be divided into 4 exhaust fans two speed fire protected each one is 38 000 cfm for ventilation.

Direct drive two speed smoke exhaust fans of 14.1 m3/s (64,000 cfm) rating shall be provided in each parking
zone , Fire rated for 300oC for 1 HR. Motor and Bearing shall be out of air stream.
