The aeration capacity of the aerator:

The main performance indicators of the aerator are specified as aeration capacity and power efficiency. Aeration capacity refers to the amount of oxygen that an aerator adds to the water body per hour, in kilograms/hour; power efficiency refers to the amount of oxygen that an aerator consumes 1 kilowatt-hour of electricity to increase water, and the unit is kg/kWh . For example, a 1.5-kilowatt waterwheel aerator with a power efficiency of 1.7 kg/kWh means that the machine consumes 1 kWh of electricity and can add 1.7 kg of oxygen to the water body.

Suggestions on the configuration of waterwheel aerators for shrimp farms:

The configuration of the aerator is mainly determined by the water source condition, breeding density, and the total energy consumption of water in and out.

1. Water source status: Whether the water source is abundant and whether the water quality has been maintained in good condition; if the water quality is good, consider less allocation, otherwise, more allocation, only change the water more when the water quality is good.

2. Breeding density (yield per mu): the high is more with, the low is with less.

3. The total energy consumption of the intake and drainage: If the energy consumption of the intake and drainage is less, the aerator can be considered less equipped; the energy consumption is larger, and the configuration amount should be larger.

4. Economic analysis: Consider the relative ratio of electricity bills and shrimp prices. If the local electricity bill is relatively high and the price of shrimp is relatively low, consider less allocation; otherwise, more allocation.
