Air enters a fan through a duct  velocity of 6.3 m/s and an inlet static  pressure of 2.5cm of water less than the  atmospheric pressure. The air leaves the fan  through the duct at a velocity of 11.25 m/s  and a discharge pressure of 7.62cm of water  above the atmospheric pressure.

 Air enters a fan through a duct 
velocity of 6.3 m/s and an inlet static 
pressure of 2.5cm of water less than the 
atmospheric pressure. The air leaves the fan 
through the duct at a velocity of 11.25 m/s 
and a discharge pressure of 7.62cm of water 
above the atmospheric pressure. If, the 
density of the air is 1.2kg/m3
and the fan 
delivers 9.45m3
/s, what is the fan efficiency 
when the power input to the fan is 13.75 kW 
at the coupling.
