Axial Flow Fan is unique on its own and differs greatly from that of a Centrifugal Fan. An Axial Flow fan comprises of the main motor, casing, and a propeller as its main components. It is simpler in construction compared to Centrifugal Fans or Blowers. Unlike Centrifugal fans, Axial Fans process air through the same direction. It employs cooling systems and the air generated gets pulled back into the atmosphere. Centrifugal Blower draws the air into the inlet side of the blower housing with one of the seven types of wheel.

We at AS Engineers provide our customers with optimally designed and engineered Axial Flow Fans. The purpose of this fan is simple air delivery through the system, keeping in mind the relation between efficiency of the fan and power consumption. It is designed to meet the exact demands of commercial and industrial ventilation in hot, humid, dusty and corrosive environments.

The materials of construction used for this Fan depends on the application of the Fan. Mild-steel, Aluminum and many different MoC are used depending on the purpose. The impeller is made of cast aluminum alloy along with an aerofoil blade for reduction in weight.

Axial fans, also known as axial flow fans or vane axial fans, are a type of fan that moves air in an axial direction, along the axis of rotation. These fans are widely used in a variety of industries and applications, such as process industry, mine ventilation, ship ventilation, tunnel ventilation, metro ventilation, nuclear power plants, steel industry, pharmaceuticals, cement industry, and emergency smoke extraction. AS Engineers is a leading manufacturer of axial fans that cater to the diverse needs of these industries.

Axial fans are characterized by their ability to move large volumes of air at relatively low static pressures. They are often used in applications where the primary objective is to move air or other gases from one location to another, rather than to increase the pressure of the air stream. Axial fans can be further classified into tube axial fans and vane axial fans, depending on their design and construction.

Tube axial fans are designed to move air through a cylindrical duct or tube. The air is drawn in through the inlet of the fan and discharged through the outlet. The fan blades, which are usually mounted on a shaft that rotates within the duct, create a flow of air that moves parallel to the axis of rotation. Tube axial fans are often used in applications where the air flow needs to be directed through a specific path, such as in ventilation systems, air conditioning systems, and process cooling applications.

Vane axial fans, on the other hand, are designed to move air in a more radial direction, perpendicular to the axis of rotation. The fan blades are mounted on a hub that rotates within a cylindrical casing. As the fan blades rotate, they draw air into the center of the fan and discharge it through the outlet of the casing. Vane axial fans are often used in applications where the air flow needs to be spread out over a large area, such as in ventilation systems, air conditioning systems, and process cooling applications.

In process industry, axial fans play a crucial role in maintaining optimal operating conditions for various industrial processes. For example, in the pharmaceutical industry, axial fans are used to control temperature and humidity levels, as well as to provide ventilation in production areas. In the cement industry, axial fans are used to supply air for cooling, ventilation, and dust control in kilns, clinker coolers, and finish mills.

In the steel industry, axial fans are used for ventilation, cooling, and process air supply. For example, in a blast furnace, axial fans are used to supply process air for combustion, cooling, and ventilation. In rolling mills, axial fans are used to supply cooling air to the rolls, bearings, and gears.

In mine ventilation, axial fans play a critical role in maintaining air quality and temperature levels in underground mines. They are used to supply fresh air to workers, remove fumes and gases, and regulate air temperature. In ship ventilation, axial fans are used to provide fresh air to crew quarters, engine rooms, and cargo holds.

In tunnel ventilation, axial fans are used to control air quality and temperature levels in road and rail tunnels. They are used to supply fresh air, remove fumes and gases, and regulate air temperature. In metro ventilation, axial fans are used to provide fresh air and remove fumes and gases from metro systems.

In nuclear power plants, axial fans are used for cooling and ventilation. They are used to supply air to the reactor core, control rooms, and other areas where cooling is necessary.

Finally, axial fans are also used in emergency smoke extraction applications. They are used to provide smoke and heat ventilation in buildings and other structures, helping to prevent the spread of smoke and fire in the event of a fire emergency. Axial fans are designed to operate quickly and efficiently in smoke extraction systems, helping to maintain a clear and safe escape route for building occupants.

In conclusion, axial fans play a crucial role in a variety of industries and applications. Their versatility, efficiency, and ability to move large volumes of air at low static pressures make them ideal for use in a range of applications, including process industry, mine ventilation, ship ventilation, tunnel ventilation, metro ventilation, nuclear power plants, steel industry, pharmaceuticals, cement industry, and emergency smoke extraction.
