Mechanical Fan Hp Loss at Tyson Bathurst blog

Mechanical Fan Hp Loss. Just changing from a flex fan to a proper clutch fan is good for a bunch of gas mileage. I set out to do fan/hp loss testing and cfm measurements (really a secondary project in and of itself), alternator load losses, and a last minute. Mechanical fans take power to spin but properly (factory) sized you'll probably find the loss correlates pretty well with the engine's. A mechanical fan has to operate effectively at idle to keep a car cool in traffic. It definitely impacts gas mileage. Horsepower loss with a mechanical fan (answers) a few of us were discussing power loss through the pulley system on our supercharged engines and yesterday i came upon a hot rod sight where they actually dyno tested a 350hp v8, then tested again with several different popular mechanical cooling fans in common use. Fan and installation loss (system loss) the installation of a fan will influence on the overall system efficiency dp sy = x sy p d (5) where dp sy. I have read many times a mechanical cooling fan can use a lot of power, some claim 20 hp at higher rpm's.it wasn't too long ago that a. In every dyno test i've seen over the years, the flex fan has about the same hp loss as a thermostatic clutch fan does at high rpm. This can equate to 20hp at 6000+rpm with a fixed.
