A centrifugal fan, also known as a blower, is a mechanical device that moves air or gases using the centrifugal force generated by a rotating impeller. Unlike axial fans, which move air along the axis, centrifugal fans push air at a 90-degree angle to the intake, allowing for higher pressure airflow in confined systems.

Working Principle of Centrifugal Fans

The Working Principle of Centrifugal Fans Explained What Is a Centrifugal Fan? A centrifugal fan, also known as a blower, is a mechanical device that moves air or gases using the centrifugal force generated by a rotating impeller. Unlike axial fans, which move air along the axis, centrifugal fans push air at a 90-degree angle to the intake, allowing for higher pressure airflow in confined systems. How Does It Work? 1. Air Intake The process begins when air enters the fan through the center, or inlet, of the impeller. This central location is known as the eye of the fan. 2. Impeller Action Once the air is drawn in, it hits the rotating impeller blades. These blades are designed in various shapes (forward-curved, backward-curved, or radial) to control the direction and force of airflow. 3. Centrifugal Force As the impeller spins, it creates centrifugal force, flinging the air outward toward the edges of the fan housing. This increase in kinetic energy results in higher air pressure. 4. Outlet Discharge The high-pressure air is then directed out through the fan outlet, usually at a 90-degree angle to the intake. This pressurized flow is ideal for ventilation through duct systems or across large industrial areas.
