Vent for Wood Mantle Hood

I am renovating my kitchen and I plan to keep my gas range, GE Model # JGBP88SEK3SS, 30" standard size. The power burner is 16,000 BTU's and the sum of all 5 burners is 47,000 BTU's. I do not see any reference in the manual regarding the appropriate CFM's for venting. What is appropriate? 470 CFM?

I currently have this range installed with an over the range microwave that recirculates the air (via a loud fan) and makes the room very hot. In the renovation, I plan to get a wood mantle hood and I must order an internal vent that will be installed on an outside wall and vent to the outside.

Can you recommend a quite fan that is appropriate for my gas range and / or give me some info on websites that rate these types of vents.

Thank You.
