Open Source In-Line Duct Fan
(Redirected from Centrifugal Fan)
Basics
- A Fan powered by a Brushless DC Motor that is placed in-line with Ductwork to propel the air
- Use One Per Zone, and thus allow for a per zone Variable Air Flow system (also software control of all the rates etc
- Need to see if "blast gates" would still be needed/useful
- Main use is in an HVAC or solely Ventilation system for a building, but it would also have use for greenhouses, and fume hoods/laminar flow hoods etc
