Types of Industrial Fan Blades: A Complete Selection Guide

Types of industrial fan blades fall into two broad categories based on how they move air. Centrifugal designs, including airfoil, backward inclined, radial, and forward curved blades, pull air in and push it out at an angle. Axial designs, including propeller, tubeaxial, and vaneaxial blades, push air straight through parallel to the shaft. Each of…
