Cooling Fans

Fans move air by creating a pressure differential. If the air is blocked, pressure builds up and no air moves. If the fan is out in the open, there is no pressure across the fan, and airflow is maximized. Many industry members will agree that miniaturization is a major trend in electronics. The popularity of small devices over large and clunky ones is truly no surprise; smaller electronics are easier to handle, carry, and store. In the quest to create ever smaller devices, manufacturers have miniaturized everything from consumer electronics to highly precise medical tools. Many electronic products rely on cooling fans, with sizes varying from 10″ blowers to 8 mm micro-fans. A few thermal design equations can narrow down the selection options. Early system prototypes can help refine fan selection. The complexity of airflow means that choosing the right fan may require trial and error. A best practice is to start the thermal design early in electronics prototyping. IBS Electronics supplies the widest selection of quality axial fans and blowers, which includes DC brushless fans, micro DC blowers, CPU coolers, graphic card coolers and AC fans.
