Hi, Vern. My main concern in the firm´s project is the air flow, since we
have to keep an eye on gas consumption.
But it is difficult to obtain precise numbers, since the way I found to
measure the mean airflow while playing a harmonica was to blow into a tube
thinking of it as being a harmonica. Not very scientific, though. I have
done the same with pressure, but don´t recall the figures. Would have to try
again, and I´ll update you on the numbers.
Best regards,
Fernando
