  2. Axial fan design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_fan_design

    The stall zone for the single axial fan and axial fans operated in parallel are shown in the figure. [4] The Figure shows the Stall Prone Areas differently for One fan and Two fans in parallel. [4] The following can be inferred from the graph : For the Fans operated in parallel, the performance is less when compared to the individual fans.

  3. Industrial fan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_fan

    The axial fan is often contained within a short section of cylindrical ductwork, to which inlet and outlet ducting can be connected. Axial fan types have fan wheels with diameters that usually range from less than a foot (0.3 meters) to over 30 feet (9.1 m), although axial cooling tower fan wheels may exceed 82 feet (25 m) in diameter.

    It is a no-load condition in a gas turbine, turbocharger or industrial axial compressor but overload in an industrial centrifugal compressor. [29] Hiereth et al. [30] shows a turbocharger compressor full-load, or maximum fuelling, curve runs up close to the surge line. A gas turbine compressor full-load line also runs close to the surge line.

  5. Affinity laws - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affinity_laws

    They apply to pumps, fans, and hydraulic turbines. In these rotary implements, the affinity laws apply both to centrifugal and axial flows. The laws are derived using the Buckingham π theorem. The affinity laws are useful as they allow the prediction of the head discharge characteristic of a pump or fan from a known characteristic measured at ...

  6. Centrifugal fan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_fan

    A centrifugal fan is a mechanical device for moving air or other gases in a direction at an angle to the incoming fluid. Centrifugal fans often contain a ducted housing to direct outgoing air in a specific direction or across a heat sink; such a fan is also called a blower, blower fan, or squirrel-cage fan (because it looks like a hamster wheel).

  7. Flow conditioning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_conditioning

    The velocity profile should be referred to as the axial velocity profile. As the velocity vector can be resolved into three mutually orthogonal components, the velocity profile only represents the axial component of velocity. fig.(2) showing the Swirl Angle which explains the definition of flow swirl and swirl angle.

  9. Blade solidity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blade_solidity

    In an airfoil, the mean line curvature is designed to change the flow direction, the vane thickness is for strength and the streamlined shape is to delay the onset of boundary layer separation. Taking all the design factors of an airfoil, the resulting forces of lift and drag can be expressed in terms of lift and drag coefficient.
