Operating Principle:
Common medium-pressure fans are centrifugal fans, with the impeller covered by a mechanical casing, and the center of the impeller being the intake. As the medium-pressure fan operates, the power equipment drives the impeller to rotate, drawing air into the intake. During the rotation of the centrifugal fan blades, they impart dynamic force to the gas, increasing its pressure and velocity, and the gas is expelled from the exhaust port along the blade channel under the action of centrifugal force.
During operation, although the rotation of the impeller increases the pressure and velocity of the gas, the various change amounts are relatively small. Therefore, in the design and use of centrifugal fans, the gas is usually treated as an incompressible fluid. The gas processing process of medium-pressure fans is all completed within the same radial plane, hence the medium-pressure fans are also known as radial flow centrifugal fans.
Technical Specifications: In the technical parameters of medium-pressure fans, the most important factors to consider during selection include gas flow rate, pressure, power transmission, efficiency, and impeller speed. The gas flow rate parameter of a medium-pressure fan represents the volume of gas the fan can process in a unit of time. The pressure of a medium-pressure fan refers to the internal gas pressure value during its operation.
The efficiency of medium-pressure fans refers to the ratio of the shaft power of the fans to the effective power of the actual gas being processed. The full pressure efficiency of centrifugal fans is approximately 90%, and in the future development of centrifugal fans, efficiency values will be one of the targets researchers continue to pursue.
Medium-pressure fans are widely used for dust removal and cooling in factories, mines, tunnels, cooling towers, vehicles, ships, and buildings; ventilation and exhaust in boiler and industrial furnace kilns; cooling and ventilation in air conditioning equipment and household appliances; grain drying and sorting; wind tunnel air source and air cushion ship inflation and propulsion, etc.
