How can i tell what Cold Fraction my Vortex Tube is set to?
There two ways to find out what Cold Fraction you are currently using on your STREAMTEK Vortex Tube. (1) By using the Performance Data chart found here. You can measure the temperature of cold air exhausting and compare it to the chart. It’s important to note that the air temperatue should be taken immediatley out of the Vortex Tube as the airflow will quickly warm as it mixes with abient air. (2) An air flow meeter can also be used to measure the volume of air both coming out of the unit and going into Vortex Tube. Then use these values and compare the cold or hot flow of the unit. By comparing the cold or hot flow rate to the total will give you accurate hot or cold fraction.
