    The Exhale bladeless ceiling fan creates a vortex in your room. This Tesla inspired design utilizes the science of laminar flow. We created this video to show the vortex flow of the Exhale fan in water. We also added small, slightly less than buoyant material to aid in the visualization. The fan and tank are about 1/6th scale and represent a standard 34" Exhale fan in a 9x10' room with a 12' ceiling. Enjoy!

    An impeller implies that there are vertical fins or blades. The Exhale fan does not contain either, but you are correct in saying that (like an impeller) it draws air up through the center and expels it through the sides. Impeller fans are also generally noisy due to their fins slicing through the air.

    The air does create a vortex in your room, but it is not strong enough to pick up items and move them around. It is a very smooth and gentle air circulation. The vortex is created by the low pressure directly under the fan drawing air upward and the downward flow of rotating air along the outside walls. This is the main reason the Exhale fan is more effective at mixing the air and stabilizing temperatures.

    Boundary layer drag propells the air outward along a very thin layer over the surface of the disc, while laminar flow or 'streamline flow' is the uniform unobstructed air between the discs.
    A low pressure is created near the input causing a scavenging effect, pulling additional air through the fan.

    I truely liked the idea, but doesn't it pick up the tiny dust particles from the floor and blow it back to us ? Seems so... Does it?

    I would like to see this in an open room with smoke. Because the fan is in a liquid medium, there is more resistance... thus the vortex. Since the fan was designed to move air, I would like to see the effect on air not water.

    I like the bad ass music for a fan demonstration.

    wouldn't there be an extra turbulent wind right under the fan?

  • @DerekDickerson

    why didn't they use color smoke though?

    Do you guys have any videos without music so we can hear the fan in action?

    God help you if you ever step into the center of the room.

  • @Exhalefans

    The larger spacing allows the Exhale to maximize the scavenging affect and ultimately increase airflow at lower (Ceiling fan rated) RPMs.

    So it will distribute dust 360 degrees

    Is it like a centrifugal pump, but instead of using blades to push against the air it is the surfaces of the spinning discs dragging that put the air in motion?

    So what are the spiritual effects of this "vortex"?

  • @iYourDaddy
    @iYourDaddy 12 років тому +2

    so it doesn´t take out the particles? just move them? you can do a demo with smoke this is confusing, I thought that besides a fan will work as a vacuum....

    Very cool demonstration, although the tank could have been slightly wider to further show the homogenization taking place.

  • @tommysmith8801

    I'm surprised at the disc spacing as Nicola tesla's model used 2mm spacing. As this would decrease the height stack of the unit and further increase pressures at both points thus allowing the unit to be made even smaller in height by removing discs.

    what sort of Reynolds numbers is this thing running at?

  • @dewskie

    So it will create a tornado in my room? :P
    Looks cool, but I wish you had a more in-depth explanation of how it works somewhere on your site or indiegogo page.

    It's just an impeller. The entire body rotates and draws air through the middle and expels it through the sides.

  • @Exhalefans
    @Exhalefans  12 років тому

    Actually the entire unit is spinning in the same direction. It works based on the same principal as the bladeless turbine from 19th century inventor Nikola Tesla.

    I think Dyson bladeless fans have met their match.

    i think , these 9 hollow cylindrical discs move in reverse direction to each other !

    Dont know how quiet this is, seems like it would be pretty silent. Just thoguht it would be badass if this kinda technology could somehow make its way into helicopter technology for super quiet helicopters or drones.

  • @tiagotiagot
    @tiagotiagot 12 років тому

    I would expect it got a power button wired somewhere...
    .
    This is not perpetual motion, it is using regular electricity from the wires hidden in the ceilings; worse case scenario you engage the Madagascar protocol and shutdown the power for your whole house on the breakers :P
