I keep mine in the 80's. if you dry too fast, the outside will dry out and the inside wont dry. For the first couple weeks, I keep it fairly high and gradually decrease, still never under 70-75%

You can calculate the velocity based on the speed if you were forcing the air through a duct, so probably there is a formula where you factor in the size of the chamber and the amount of resistance. Having said that, .1 to .5 meters per second is very mild air movement. Keep in mind that the reason that we want a small amount of air movement in the chamber is not that we want to dry the sausages with the air speed, but rather to homogenize the humidity inside the chamber. Excessive air velocity will result in case hardening. Often it is not necessary to install a fan inside the chamber for the purpose of air circulation if you are using a frost free fridge that turns on on a regular basis, since that task is performed by the fan inside the fridge.
