  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. Fan chart (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_chart_(statistics)

    A dispersion fan diagram (left) in comparison with a box plot. A fan chart is made of a group of dispersion fan diagrams, which may be positioned according to two categorising dimensions. A dispersion fan diagram is a circular diagram which reports the same information about a dispersion as a box plot: namely median, quartiles, and two extreme ...

  4. 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 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor_map

    A compressor map is a chart which shows the performance of a turbomachinery compressor.This type of compressor is used in gas turbine engines, for supercharging reciprocating engines and for industrial processes, where it is known as a dynamic compressor.

  6. Industrial fan - Wikipedia

    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.

  7. Fan (machine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_(machine)

    An axial box fan for cooling electrical equipment. Axial-flow fans have blades that force air to move parallel to the shaft about which the blades rotate. This type of fan is used in a wide variety of applications, ranging from small cooling fans for electronics to the giant fans used in cooling towers. Axial flow fans are applied in air ...

  8. Computer fan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_fan

    Where noise is an issue, larger, slower-turning fans are quieter than smaller, faster fans that can move the same airflow. Fan noise has been found to be roughly proportional to the fifth power of fan speed; halving the speed reduces the noise by about 15 dB. [22] Axial fans may rotate at speeds of up to around 38,000 rpm for smaller sizes. [23]

  9. Thermodynamic diagrams - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_diagrams

    The main feature of thermodynamic diagrams is the equivalence between the area in the diagram and energy. When air changes pressure and temperature during a process and prescribes a closed curve within the diagram the area enclosed by this curve is proportional to the energy which has been gained or released by the air.
