  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 ...

  4. Formwork - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formwork

    For removable forms, once the concrete has been poured into formwork and has set (or cured), the formwork is struck or stripped to expose the finished concrete. The time between pouring and stripping depends on the job specifications, which include the cure required, and whether the form is supporting any weight; it is usually at least 24 hours ...

  5. Concrete slab - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_slab

    For a ground-bearing slab, the formwork may consist only of side walls pushed into the ground. For a suspended slab, the formwork is shaped like a tray, often supported by a temporary scaffold until the concrete sets. The formwork is commonly built from wooden planks and boards, plastic, or steel.

  6. Insulating concrete form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulating_concrete_form

    Like other concrete formwork, the forms are filled with concrete in 1-foot to 4-foot high "lifts" to manage the concrete pressure and reduce the risk of blowouts. After the concrete has cured, the forms are left in place permanently to provide a variety of benefits, depending on materials used: Thermal insulation; Soundproofing

  8. Thermal destratification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_destratification

    Because axial fans are designed to blow air straight down at the floor, they can be used in ceiling and roof structures over 100 ft. tall. Because axial destratification fans can achieve destratification with low CFMs, it is imperative that the air leaving the nozzle achieve an air speed at the floor of between 0.2 and 0.5 m/s.

  9. Airflow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airflow

    The direction of airflow is determined by the direction of the pressure gradient. Total or static pressure rise, and therefore by extension airflow rate, is determined primarily by the fan speed measured in revolutions per minute (RPM). [7] In control of HVAC systems to modulate the airflow rate, one typically changes the fan speed, which often ...
