   A High-volume low-speed fan. A high-volume low-speed (HVLS) fan is a type of mechanical fan greater than 7 feet (2.1 m) in diameter. [1] HVLS fans are generally ceiling fans although some are pole mounted. HVLS fans move slowly and distribute large amounts of air at low rotational speed– hence the name "high volume, low speed."

   It is even worse to have a ceiling fan circulating "clockwise" in the summer than is not having a ceiling fan at all. The reasoning for the quotes around "clockwise" is because on 90% of ceiling fans, counterclockwise is downward air flow and clockwise is upward air flow, and the other 10% it is the other way around.

   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] This heats up the air, which then leaves the heater, warming up the surrounding room. They can heat an enclosed space such as a room faster than a heater without a fan, [2] but like any fan, create a degree ...

7. 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).
