Mine Ventilation Airflow Calc
MSHA Airflow CFM & Pressure
$1.99 · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Professional field calculator for industry professionals.
Planning underground ventilation and need to know the required CFM for your crew size, diesel equipment, and airway dimensions? This calculator gives you MSHA-compliant airflow requirements in seconds.
Select mine type (coal, metal/non-metal, or tunnel), enter airway shape and dimensions, and specify personnel and diesel HP underground. Get required airflow, air velocity, and resistance calculations instantly.
WHAT YOU GET:
- Required CFM based on personnel count (MSHA minimums)
- Diesel dilution airflow requirement
- Airway cross-section area for rectangular, arch, or circular openings
- Air velocity at the calculated flow rate
- Airway resistance using Atkinson friction factors
- Fan pressure requirements
MINE TYPES:
Coal (30 CFR 75.325), Metal/Non-Metal (30 CFR 57.8520), and Tunnel — each with correct minimum CFM per person and velocity requirements.
AIRWAY SHAPES:
Rectangular, arch (horseshoe), and circular — with proper area and perimeter calculations for each.
RESISTANCE:
Atkinson friction factor input with typical ranges for smooth (40-60) and rough (80-120) airways.
Works completely offline. No account required. Built for mining engineers, ventilation planners, and safety officers who need fast, MSHA-referenced airflow calculations underground.
