6. A forced draft centrifugal fan draws air at 1.32 cubic meter/sec towards a combustion chamber of a steam generator. The static pressures are 15mm. water below atmospheric at suction and 10mm. water above atmospheric at the discharge. The inlet duct is 30cm in diameter and the discharge duct is 27cm in diameter. The fan mechanical efficiency is 70%. The air is measured at 25 degrees Celsius and 760mmHg. Determine:
