2. Computer fan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_fan

   Axial fans may rotate at speeds of up to around 38,000 rpm for smaller sizes. [23] Fans may be controlled by sensors and circuits that reduce their speed when temperature is not high, leading to quieter operation, longer life, and lower power consumption than fixed-speed fans. Fan lifetimes are usually quoted under the assumption of running at ...

Vertical aluminium ...

4. Computer fan control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_fan_control

   A standard cooling fan is a DC motor with blades attached. By varying the voltage input across the acceptable range for a fan, the speed of the fan will increase (to added voltage) and decrease (to reduced voltage); a faster fan means more air moved and thus a higher heat exchange rate.

5. Fan coil unit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_coil_unit

   These motors are sometimes called DC motors, sometimes EC motors and occasionally DC/EC motors. DC stands for direct current and EC stands for electronically commutated.. DC motors allow the speed of the fans within a fan coil unit to be controlled by means of a 0-10 Volt input control signal to the motor/s, the transformers and speed switches associated with AC fan coils are not required.

6. Heat sink - Wikipedia

   A fan-cooled heat sink on the processor of a personal computer. To the right is a smaller heat sink cooling another integrated circuit of the motherboard. Typical heatsink-fan combination found on a consumer laptop.

7. Centrifugal fan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_fan

   Centrifugal fans are, like axial fans, constant-volume devices, meaning that, at a constant fan speed, a centrifugal fan moves a relatively constant volume of air rather than a constant mass. This means that the air velocity in a system is fixed, but the actual mass of air flowing will vary based on the density of the air.
