I'm trying to figure out how much space I need around my PC for proper airflow. I have a fan at the back for exhaust, two fans on top, and three at the front. My new desk is only 48cm tall, while my PC is 45cm. Will this setup provide enough room for airflow, or should I be concerned?

It's tough to predict airflow just from dimensions alone. The best way to know is to actually monitor your PC's temperatures while it's running. If the temps are within safe limits, then you're good to go! But if you're seeing higher temps, you might want to consider adding some extra space or improving airflow.
Are you using air cooling or an AIO setup? Just asking because I don’t even have a top exhaust on my air-cooled system, and I think that clearance should be just fine for you.
