2. Ventilation (architecture) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventilation_(architecture)

   An axial belt-drive exhaust fan serving an underground car park. This exhaust fan's operation is interlocked with the concentration of contaminants emitted by internal combustion engines. Mechanical ventilation of buildings and structures can be achieved by the use of the following techniques: Whole-house ventilation; Mixing ventilation

3. Axial fan design - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_fan_design

   The fan is designed to produce a pressure difference, and hence force, to cause a flow through the fan. Factors which determine the performance of the fan include the number and shape of the blades. Fans have many applications including in wind tunnels and cooling towers. Design parameters include power, flow rate, pressure rise and efficiency. [1]

4. Industrial fan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_fan

   Mixed-flow fans - The gas flow patterns these fans produce resemble a combination of axial and centrifugal patterns, although the fan wheels often appear similar to centrifugal wheels. There are various types of mixed-flow fans, including gas-tight high-pressure fans and blowers.

5. Fan (machine) - Wikipedia

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

   A household electric fan A large cylindrical fan. A fan is a powered machine that creates airflow. A fan consists of rotating vanes or blades, generally made of wood, plastic, or metal, which act on the air. The rotating assembly of blades and hub is known as an impeller, rotor, or runner. Usually, it is contained within some form of housing ...

6. Ceiling fan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceiling_fan

   With this design (which consists of a basic stator and rotor), the fan's blades mount to a central hub, known as a flywheel. The flywheel which is made of either metal or reinforced rubber can be mounted either flush with the fan's motor housing (concealed) or prominently below the fan's motor housing (known as a "dropped flywheel").

7. 19-inch rack - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/19-inch_rack

   A difficulty with forced air fan cooling in rack equipment is that fans can fail due to age or dust. The fans themselves can be difficult to replace. In the case of network equipment, it may be necessary to unplug 50 or more cables from the device, remove the device from the rack, and then disassemble the device chassis to replace the fans.

8. Turbofan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbofan

   In a high-bypass design, the ducted fan and nozzle produce most of the thrust. Turbofans are closely related to turboprops in principle because both transfer some of the gas turbine's gas power, using extra machinery, to a bypass stream leaving less for the hot nozzle to convert to kinetic energy.

9. Fan death - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_death

   Fan death is a misconception that people have died as a result of running an electric fan in a closed room with no open windows. While the supposed mechanics of fan death are impossible given how electric fans operate, belief in fan death persisted to the mid-2000s in South Korea , [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] and also to a lesser extent in Japan .
