How can you use ceiling fans in winter?

How can you use ceiling fans in winter?

In a closed space like a room with still air, the cooler air stays at the bottom, and the warm air rises to the ceiling. This segmentation of air happens due to the difference in the densities, and this phenomenon is called stratification. This becomes a problem in winters as the much-needed warm air recedes to the ceiling leaving the space close to the floor cooler. When heating elements are used to warm the space, it requires more heat generation…

THERMAL ADAPTABILITY AND CEILING FANS

THERMAL ADAPTABILITY AND CEILING FANS

Comments 0 Comment

Thermal adaptation is the ability of the human body to adjust to temperatures. The human body works to maintain the core body temperature at 37° celsius. The loss or gain of heat from the environment activates the thermal regulators in the body to warm or cool respectively. The thermal regulation system in our body functions intending to keep ourselves at a comfortable temperature. The core of our body passes on heat to the skin to maintain comfort during cold climates,…

Formulae 1 to 4 can be applied to any fan provided the diameter does not change. If the diameter does not change the fans must be geometrically similar. The units of density, fan rotational speed and diameter are not important as long as both are the same. In formulae 5 to 8 the units shown in the nomenclature must be used to satisfy the formulae Volume Flow Pressure Absorbed Power Sound Power Level Density Fan Total Efficiency % Fan Total…

How ceiling fans move air? A ceiling fan is a simple electrical appliance with blades mounted on a motor which rotates the blades to push the air and create airflow. The airflow from ceiling fans is measured in Cubic Meter Per Minute (CMM). The airflow has two components, the volume of air moved and the speed at which that volume of air moves. Fan designers vary the two components to make fans suitable for different applications with the same airflow….

Government of India through the Ministry of Power operates an agency called Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) that assigns energy efficiency rating to appliances that are participating.  The efficiency is rated in a star-based system, with ‘5 stars’ indicating the most efficient and ‘1 star’ the least efficient. BEE formulates an efficiency parameter and its required value for each appliance. Many of us are familiar with the star rating in ACs & refrigerators. Recently, it was ruled that from Jan…
