2. Prandtl–Meyer expansion fan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prandtl–Meyer_expansion_fan

   The figure shows one such ideal expansion fan. A supersonic expansion fan, technically known as Prandtl–Meyer expansion fan, a two-dimensional simple wave, is a centered expansion process that occurs when a supersonic flow turns around a convex corner. The fan consists of an infinite number of Mach waves, diverging from a sharp corner. When a ...

3. Ceiling fan - Wikipedia

   Also, if one is carrying a long and awkward object, one end may inadvertently enter the path of rotation of a ceiling fan's blades, which can cause damage to the fan. Building codes throughout the United States also prohibit industrial ceiling fans from being mounted with the blades closer than 10 feet from the floor for these reasons.

4. Fan (machine) - Wikipedia

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

   Fans inside audio power amplifiers help to draw heat away from the electrical components. Variable pitch fan: A variable-pitch fan is used to precisely control static pressure within supply ducts. The blades are arranged to rotate upon a control-pitch hub. The fan wheel will spin at a constant speed. The blades follow the control pitch hub.

5. High-volume low-speed fan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-volume_low-speed_fan

   Larger diameter fans can move more air than smaller fans at the same speed. A turbulent, high velocity air jet dissipates very quickly. A large column of air, however, "travels" farther than a small one due to the friction between moving air and stationary air, which occurs at the periphery of the moving column.

6. 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.

7. Axial fan design - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_fan_design

   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] Axial fans generally comprise fewer blades (two to six) than centrifugal fans. Axial fans commonly ...
