2. Industrial fan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_fan

   Acid gas blowers - These very heavy construction blowers are suitable for inlet pressures from full vacuum to 100 psig. Materials are selected for corrosion resistance to the gases and particulate handled. Specialty process gas blowers - These blowers are for high pressure petrochemical processes.

3. Actual cubic feet per minute - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actual_cubic_feet_per_minute

   Actual cubic feet per minute (ACFM) is a unit of volumetric flow. It is commonly used by manufacturers of blowers and compressors. [1] This is the actual gas delivery with reference to inlet conditions, whereas cubic foot per minute (CFM) is an unqualified term and should only be used in general and never accepted as a specific definition without explanation.

4. Air-start system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air-start_system

   The gas turbine compressor required to start a J79 with impingement starting was sufficient to start two J79 engines simultaneously in a B-58 when using air turbine starters. [7] An ATS has its own turbine and gears to change its low torque and high speed to low speed and high torque at the engine mounting pad.

5. Fan (machine) - Wikipedia

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

   High-pressure gases such as steam can drive a small turbine, and high-pressure liquids can drive a pelton wheel, either of which can provide the rotational drive for a fan. Large, slow-moving energy sources, such as a flowing river, can also power a fan using a water wheel and a series of step-down gears or pulleys to increase the rotational ...

6. Centrifugal fan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_fan

   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). Tiny ones used in computers are sometimes called biscuit blowers. These fans move air from the rotating inlet of the ...

7. Rotary-screw compressor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary-screw_compressor

   The term "blower" is applied to rotary screw, roots-type, and centrifugal compressors when utilized as part of an automotive forced induction system. The term 'cabin blower' is also used for the pressurisation of aircraft for high altitude flight, which used Roots type compressors particularly in the 1950s (see Marshall supercharger).
