What is a blower, its device and principle of operation

The basis of the simplest device is a centrifugal fan. It is powered by either a gasoline or electric motor. The principle of operation looks like this:

  • air is first sucked in through the center of the "cochlea";
  • it is then ejected at a fairly high speed through a long nozzle that provides a directed and powerful flow.

Blowers are of different types:

  • manual;
  • with a rigidly fixed branch pipe;
  • knapsack.

The branch pipe of the latter is connected to the fan by means of a flexible hose.

Models that operate on the principle of ordinary vacuum cleaner, that is, they can suck in air using a bell, collect rubbish in a bag provided for this.
