2. Fan (machine) - Wikipedia

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

   Domestic extractor fan: Wall- or ceiling-mounted, the domestic extractor fan is employed to remove moisture and stale air from domestic dwellings. Bathroom extractor fans typically utilize a four-inch (100 mm) impeller, while kitchen extractor fans typically use a six-inch (150 mm) impeller as the room is often bigger.

3. Kitchen hood - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitchen_hood

   A kitchen hood, exhaust hood, hood fan, extractor hood, or range hood is a device containing a mechanical fan that hangs above the stove or cooktop in the kitchen. It removes airborne grease, combustion products, fumes, smoke, heat, and steam from the air by evacuation of the air and filtration. [ 1 ]

4. Whole-house fan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whole-house_fan

   A whole house fan pulls air out of a building and forces it into the attic space or, in the case of homes without attics, through an opening in the roof or an outside wall. This forces air from the living areas into the attic and out through the gable and/or soffit vents, while at the same time drawing air from the outside into the living areas ...

5. Centrifugal fan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_fan

   Figure 1: Components of a centrifugal fan An external motor belt driven inline centrifugal fan discharging inline to the exterior of a building through a duct. Unlike non-inline/non-concentric impeller casing design with a cutoff blade above, the concentrically symetric cylinder casing and impeller geometry of inline type redirects the outflow around so that it is parallel to the inflow of gases.

6. Attic fan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attic_fan

   An attic fan installed underneath a roof. A powered attic ventilator, or attic fan, is a ventilation fan that regulates the heat level of a building's attic by exhausting hot air. A thermostat is used to automatically turn the fan off and on, while sometimes a manual switch is used. An attic fan can be gable mounted or roof mounted. Additional ...

7. TEFC motor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TEFC_motor

   An external fan blows outside air over the frame of the motor to cool it. This motor is arguably the most commonly used motor in ordinary industrial environments. TEFC enclosed motors usually cost more than open motors, but offer increased protection against weather, dirt, and moisture. TEFC motors are constructed with a small fan on the rear ...

8. 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]

9. Ducted fan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ducted_fan

   The most common ducted fan arrangement used in full-sized aircraft is a turbofan engine, where the power to turn the fan is provided by a gas turbine. High bypass ratio turbofan engines are used on nearly all civilian airliners , while military fighters usually make use of the better high-speed performance of a low bypass ratio turbofan with a ...
