Purpose of Fans
To develop moderate pressure of the Air or gas in order to transport it from one place to another at desired Parameters.
Classification of Fans
Centrifugal Fans
Single Suction Double Suction Impeller may have Radial, Forward or Backward curved blades on the basis of application
Axial Fans
Single Stage Double Stage Axial fans are further classified as Propeller, Tube axial and Vane axial

Damper Control
Fan flow and pressure can be changed by varying the cross section at the suction or discharge side of the fan. This type of control has been provided on the suction ducts having rectangular cross section, which is achieved by damper regulating mechanism powered by different types of motors.
Speed Control
Flow and pressure can be controlled by varying the speed of the fan by using either a infinitely variable speed hydraulic coupling by using a variable frequency electric motor. Many ID Fans in the thermal power plant have been provided with infinitely variable speed hydraulic coupling.
