    External Static Pressure is basically and simply the pressure required by a fan to deliver the required / design airflow rate. ESP has to be calculated for different scenarios to ensure that the calculated ESP is indicating the maximum ESP drop in the system. The calculation sheet below is very simple and all engineers can make use of it in order to estimate / calculate the External Static Pressure of a fan.
