How Air Blowers Work: The Principle <\/span><\/h2>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”|30px|||false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”|0px|||false|false” custom_padding_phone=”|0px|||false|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|tablet” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]An air blower uses a rotating impeller\/rotor to create a vacuum. This vacuum causes air to rush into the blower. The air enters the centre of the impeller and is divided by the rotating blades. Centrifugal force increases the speed of the air and volume of the air stream within the housing.<\/p>\n

Effectively, the kinetic energy of the impeller is transferred to the air. Pressure builds up as the volume of the airstream increases inside the housing. The air is then discharged from the housing towards a defined point.<\/p>\n

This targeted channelling of the air is what differentiates an air blower from a simple fan. Air blowers, designed in as part of an air knife system<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, will create a balanced airflow \u2013 reducing wasteful over-generation of excess volume and pressure.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”37px|60px||||” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_cta title=”Need more details?” button_url=”https:\/\/www.aircontrolindustries.com\/us\/air-knife-systems\/air-knife-guide\/” button_text=”GUIDE” _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” header_text_color=”#c8963e” body_text_color=”#003366″ body_font_size=”18px” body_line_height=”1.6em” background_enable_color=”off” background_enable_image=”off” width=”80%” custom_padding=”|15px|40px|15px|false|true” link_option_url=”https:\/\/www.aircontrolindustries.com\/us\/air-knife-systems\/air-knife-guide\/” border_width_all=”1px” border_color_all=”#D6D6D6″ box_shadow_style=”preset2″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Air blowers may look and sound simple enough at headline level. But it\u2019s very important to specify the correct type for your application \u2013 otherwise you risk compromising blower performance and\/or paying for more energy than you need.<\/p>\n

These are the various types of air blower, based on their impeller design:
\u2022 forward curved centrifugal
\u2022 backward curved centrifugal
\u2022 backward inclined aerofoil
\u2022 radial
\u2022 axial fans.<\/p>\n

And here are the advantages of each type\u2026<\/p>\n

Centrifugal air blowers can move high volumes of air at low pressure \u2013 making them up to 90% cheaper than compressed air. Here\u2019s how and why\u2026<\/p>\n

The air velocity (in metres\/second) in a blower is fixed. But the mass flow rate (the number of kilograms of air passing a defined point per second) is not fixed. Centrifugal air blowers operate at lower pressure because they can use less air to create the required high-velocity airstream.<\/p>\n

Lower pressure equals lower energy bills \u2013 for the same (or better) performance.<\/p>\n

The impellers in forward curved centrifugal air blowers look a lot like hamster wheels. And as risible as that may sound, it\u2019s probably the best visual description. It\u2019s not one you\u2019re likely to forget.<\/p>\n

These are some of the most common air blowers \u2013 delivering medium levels of pressure from a medium level of power. The impellers can be either left- or right-handed to suit the application.<\/p>\n

Which is better? Left- or right-handed? It depends on the application and where it is most advantageous for the motor to sit in relation to the discharge.<\/p>\n

Backward -curved blades flick the air \u2013 rather than cut it. So size-for-size, they deliver higher volumes of air at lower pressure. This means greater performance for less power (should the application demand it). Centrifugal? \u2018Centri-frugal\u2019 more like.<\/p>\n

They\u2019re not just more energy-efficient, they\u2019re also quieter. So you\u2019ll find them used in a lot of air conditioning systems and for data centre cooling.

Backward inclined aerofoil blowers such as the belt-driven EP10A<\/span><\/strong><\/a> have a different type of impeller. The rotor in this type of blower is much flatter, making them more compact.<\/p>\n

But don\u2019t underestimate their small size \u2013 they\u2019re designed to blast out medium volumes of air at high pressure. The EP10A in particular has state of the art impeller design and superior belt technology, creating less friction. The belt\u2019s tension is lower too \u2013 putting less load on the bearings so they last longer.<\/p>\n

These are very tough blowers. They\u2019re particularly recommended for marine\/offshore applications or hot\/cold environments. They\u2019re not quite \u2018fit and forget\u2019 but they are very hard-working blowers.<\/p>\n

The impeller blades radiate from the centre to the outside edge like the paddles on an old Mississippi steamboat. These blades are usually sandwiched between protective layers \u2013 resulting in greater strength and more efficient air movement.<\/p>\n

ACI\u2019s range of radial fans offers flow rates of up to 212,000 m\u00b3\/hr (360,000CFM) and pressures up to 300 Mbar (120 In.Swg).<\/p>\n

The impellers on these high volume, low pressure units look like desk fans. They\u2019re best suited to cooling large volumes of air cost-effectively.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll find them in wind tunnels and some HVAC systems (not big ducted systems though because they\u2019re low-pressure fans). They\u2019re also good for destratification in buildings \u2013 mixing air to help stop stratified layers of heat becoming trapped near the ceiling.<\/p>\n

ACI offers Euroventilatori axial fans with flow rates of up to 75,000 m3\/hr (44,143 CFM) and static pressures up to 3 In.Swg (75 mmWG)<\/p>\n
