2. 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).

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. Industrial fan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_fan

   The centrifugal design uses the centrifugal force generated by a rotating disk, with blades mounted at right angles to the disk, to impart movement to the air or gas and increase its pressure. The assembly of the hub, disk and blades is known as the fan wheel, and often includes other components with aerodynamic or structural functions.

5. Computer fan - Wikipedia

   A small blower fan is used to direct air across a laptop computer's CPU cooler. A case fan may be mounted on a radiator attached to the case, simultaneously operating to cool a liquid cooling device's working fluid and to ventilate the case. In laptops, a single blower fan often cools a heat sink connected to both CPU and GPU using heat pipes.

6. 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 ...

   The centrifugal blower ran about 10 times engine speed. Exceeding that RPM was fatal, and in a truck a single missed downshift could mean a failed engine." [3] For that reason a Roots type blower was made available as an option after about 1952. Later high performance versions were available with turbochargers.
