SPECIAL FEATURES OF AP FAN
• For the given conditions maximum
efficiency can be obtained compared
to other Fans
• Power loss at low loads is minimum
• Total weight is less
• Less unstable region.Can be operated
safely at low loads without stalling
• Fast response to load changes
• Regulation loss is less

SPECIAL FEATURES OF AN FAN
• Mechanically simple construction
• Easy to maintain
• Can be utilized for dust laden gas
applications
• Re blading of the impeller is possible
up to four times
• More Economical
 FORMATION OF FAN NOISE
• FAST MOVING GAS
• EDDIES
• NOISE CONTROL MEASURES
– anti-noise covers (sound insulation)
– silencers (sound absorption)
SILENCER
 SILENCER
Sound attenuation in fans can be achieved by
• Untuned absorption silencers
• Resonantsilencerstunedtocertainfrequencies

Baffles are arranged within a housing,

parallel to the direction of flow
 SILENCER
• Absorption Silencer
Space between the baffle walls, built of
perforated plate, is filled with sound
absorbing mineral wool
The molecules in the gas stream excited to
produce sound oscillations are impeded
by the mineral wool packing in the baffles
such that the sound energy penetrating
the perforations is converted to thermal
energy by the friction of the molecules.
