Question 48
MNNAT2 marksNeeds review
In a mine, 200 and 250 persons are deployed in the Panels A and B (shown in figure) respectively in the largest shift.

The panels produce 400 and 500 tonne/day respectively. The resistances of panels A and B are 0.3 Ns²m⁻⁸ and 0.4 Ns²m⁻⁸ respectively and the combined resistance of shaft and trunk airways is 0.5 Ns²m⁻⁸. The operating static pressure of the fan in Pa to provide the minimum air quantities in the panels as per CMR 1957 is ________
