    A High-volume low-speed fan. A high-volume low-speed (HVLS) fan is a type of mechanical fan greater than 7 feet (2.1 m) in diameter. [1] HVLS fans are generally ceiling fans although some are pole mounted. HVLS fans move slowly and distribute large amounts of air at low rotational speed– hence the name "high volume, low speed."

  3. Ceiling fan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceiling_fan

    A pendulum fan or flap fan is a type of low velocity ceiling fan that can be used for air circulation around a targeted area. The back and forth motion increases turbulence around cooling sources, like chilled waterfalls at the Lavin Bernick Center at Tulane , helping to cool a greater volume of air.

  4. Room air distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Room_air_distribution

    The high-velocity supply air stream causes turbulence causing the room air to mix with the supply air. Because the entire room is near-fully mixed, temperature variations are small while the contaminant concentration is fairly uniform throughout the entire room. Diffusers are normally used as the air outlets to create the high-velocity supply ...

    In summer, ceiling fans and table/floor fans circulate air within a room for the purpose of reducing the perceived temperature by increasing evaporation of perspiration on the skin of the occupants. Because hot air rises, ceiling fans may be used to keep a room warmer in the winter by circulating the warm stratified air from the ceiling to the ...

    When the high-velocity winds arrived, all it took was a spark in just the wrong place, MacDonald said, and “a perfect fire storm” drove the fire into the Palisades. Flames raced westward until ...

  7. Displacement ventilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Displacement_ventilation

    Displacement ventilation is best suited for taller spaces (higher than 3 meters [10 feet]). [2] Standard mixing ventilation may be better suited for smaller spaces where air quality is not as great a concern, such as single-occupant offices, and where the room height is not tall (e.g., lower than 2.3 meters [7.5 feet]).
