Centrifugal Blowers & Exhausters

What is a centrifugal blower? A centrifugal blower is a type of fan or air-moving device designed to increase the velocity of air or gases and deliver them to a specific location. The fundamental principle behind a centrifugal blower is to convert rotational energy into kinetic energy, resulting in a high-pressure airflow. 

How does a centrifugal blower work? The core component of a centrifugal blower is the impeller, which is a rotating disk with blades or vanes attached. Air or gas enters the blower through an inlet at the center of the impeller. As the impeller spins, the centrifugal force pushes the air or gas towards the outer edges of the impeller, increasing its velocity. When the impeller spins, it creates a centrifugal force that throws air or gas outwards. The high-velocity air or gas is then expelled through a discharge port or outlet and results in a high-pressure airflow that can be directed to the desired location.
