2. Geared turbofan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geared_turbofan

   In a geared turbofan, a planetary reduction gearbox between the fan and the LP shaft allows the latter to run at a higher rotational speed thus enabling fewer stages to be used in both the LP turbine and the LP compressor, increasing efficiency and reducing weight. However, some energy will be lost as heat in the gear mechanism and weight saved ...

3. 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).

5. Turbofan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbofan

   A turbofan or fanjet is a type of airbreathing jet engine that is widely used in aircraft propulsion.The word "turbofan" is a combination of references to the preceding generation engine technology of the turbojet and the additional fan stage.

6. Computer fan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_fan

   A small blower fan is used to direct air across a laptop computer's CPU cooler. A case fan may be mounted on a radiator attached to the case, simultaneously operating to cool a liquid cooling device's working fluid and to ventilate the case. In laptops, a single blower fan often cools a heat sink connected to both CPU and GPU using heat pipes.

7. Noise control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_control

   Noise control for aerodynamic sources include quiet air nozzles, pneumatic silencers and quiet fan technology. Since many mechanical sounds are inherently loud, the principal design element is to require the wall or ceiling assembly to meet certain performance standards, [ 21 ] (typically Sound transmission class of 50), which allows ...
