Anyone responsible for selecting or
operating industrial axial flow fans needs some basic knowledge of fan design
and utilization in order to make optimum decisions. Moore has prepared a number of short
technical articles, one printed page or less, covering these basic subjects. We
hope you will find these "Tech NOTES" helpful. For more
in-depth information, select see “Engineering Papers”
section below.

Engineering Papers and Owner's manuals for Moore fans below require
Adobe Acrobat Reader®. (Acrobat Reader 5.0 or newer is recommended) If
you do not have Acrobat Reader® on your computer, a free download is

TECH NOTES:
- HOW TO RECOGNIZE A
HIGH-EFFICIENCY FAN Describes the complex blade shape necessary
to provide uniform flow, the most important requirement of a fan wheel.
- WHY MOORE FANS HAVE TWO HUBS Explains
the considerable difference between the aerodynamic and structural
requirements of a fan hub.
- METHODS FOR MODULATING AIRFLOW Compares the three common methods for
reducing airflow as conditions permit, to reduce power use and lower noise
level.
- HOW TO SELECT A LOW-NOISE FAN Noise
level calculation formulae indicate performance considerations for
reducing noise and other means of lowering noise are discussed.
- THE ADVANTAGES OF RESILIENT
"HELICOPTER" BLADES Discussion of the reduction of stress and the avoidance of
critical speeds using variable-speed motors.
- COOLER UPGRADING: A TIMELY TOPIC
ENGINEERING
PAPERS:
- THEORY OF RATING The basic definitions and
formulas used in fan selection.
- FAN DESIGN Considerations in the design of
axial flow fans for high energy and efficiency.
- RESONANCE OF PIVOTED BLADES Calculation of resonant
frequencies for Moore
fans with pivoted fan blades.
- NOISE LEVEL PREDICTION Gives formulas used by Moore to predict
noise levels at user-defined locations and for multiple aerial cooler
fans.
- MODULATING AIR FLOW Gives formulas that can be
used to estimate horsepower, PWL and SPL resulting from modulating air
flow.
