Default Mathmatical conversion question?

If an active blower created 180 cfm (cubic feet per minute), how many psi would it create? TIA.

Default The units don't work....

cfm is a pumping speed and psi is pressure.

Default Yep, 180 cfm exchages air in an 800 cu. ft. room in 4.5 minutes...

how can this be converted to psi (pounds per square inch)?

Default But....

So in the case of a supercharger such as the PES G2, isn't that just an air pump like an active blower?
