   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_heater

   Portable fan heater A Japanese kerosene fan heater that burns kerosene for fuel. It contains an electric fan and computer controls. Electric fan heater. A fan heater, also called a blow heater, is a heater that works by using a fan to pass air over a heat source (e.g. a heating element). [1]

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).

4. Fan (machine) - Wikipedia

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

   Some fans may be indirectly used for cooling in the case of industrial heat exchangers. While fans are effective at cooling people, they do not cool air. Instead, they work by evaporative cooling of sweat and increased heat convection into the surrounding air due to the airflow from the fans. Thus, fans may become less effective at cooling the ...

5. Radiant heating and cooling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiant_heating_and_cooling

   Radiant systems, encompassing both heating and cooling, transfer heat or coolness directly through surfaces, such as floors, ceilings, or walls, instead of relying on forced-air systems. These systems are broadly categorized into three types: [19] thermally activated building systems (TABS), [20] embedded surface systems, and radiant ceiling ...

6. Heat recovery ventilation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_recovery_ventilation

   Diagramatic operation of a thermal wheel Ljungström Air Preheater by Swedish engineer Fredrik Ljungström (1875–1964). A thermal wheel, also known as a rotary heat exchanger, or rotary air-to-air enthalpy wheel, energy recovery wheel, or heat recovery wheel, is a type of energy recovery heat exchanger positioned within the supply and exhaust air streams of air-handling units or rooftop ...

7. Fan coil unit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_coil_unit

   A fan coil unit (FCU), also known as a Vertical Fan Coil Unit (VFCU), is a device consisting of a heat exchanger (coil) and a fan. FCUs are commonly used in HVAC systems of residential, commercial, and industrial buildings that use ducted split air conditioning or central plant cooling.
