2. Axial fan design - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_fan_design

   An axial fan is a type of fan that causes gas to flow through it in an axial direction, parallel to the shaft about which the blades rotate. The flow is axial at entry and exit. 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 ...

3. Turbine inlet air cooling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbine_Inlet_Air_Cooling

   The performance of a gas turbine, its efficiency and the generated power output strongly depend on the climate conditions, which may decrease the output power ratings by up to 40%. [4] To operate the turbine at ISO conditions [ 5 ] and recover performance, several inlet air cooling systems have been promoted.

4. CFE CFE738 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CFE_CFE738

   There is an axial combustion chamber between the compressor stages and the HP turbine. A mixer is built in to the jetpipe to mix cold bypass air with the hot exhaust gases. The engine has an overall pressure ratio of 35:1, which is extremely high for an engine with a centrifugal compressor.

5. Fan (machine) - Wikipedia

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

   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 conditioning and industrial process applications. Standard axial flow fans have diameters of 300–400 mm or 1,800–2,000 mm and work under pressures up to 800 ...

6. Gas turbine engine compressors - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_turbine_engine_compressors

   In the axial compressor the air flows parallel to the axis of rotation. Axial compressors are made to be multi-staged. A stage consists of a row of rotating blades called the rotor, which are connected to the central shaft and a row of stationary or fixed blades called stator. In axial flow compressor, the air flows from stage to stage.

7. Blade solidity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blade_solidity

   Blade solidity is an important design parameter for the axial flow impeller and is defined as the ratio of blade chord length to spacing. Airfoil nomenclature. Blade Solidity = c/s; Where = / is the spacing; is the mean radius; is blade number

8. Affinity laws - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affinity_laws

   The affinity laws (also known as the "Fan Laws" or "Pump Laws") for pumps/fans are used in hydraulics, hydronics and/or HVAC to express the relationship between variables involved in pump or fan performance (such as head, volumetric flow rate, shaft speed) and power. They apply to pumps, fans, and hydraulic turbines. In these rotary implements ...

   Axial compressor animation showing rotating blades and stationary stators The 17-stage axial compressor on the General Electric J79. Air moves from left to right. Air moves from left to right. Each compressor stage is a row of rotor blades which give the air tangential velocity followed by a stationary row of stator blades which slow the air ...
