This is a shorter clip taken from a tour of the Mersey tunnel • Mersey Tunnel Tour 2022. this is just the fan that supplies the Queensway tunnel with fresh air.
Driven through the Mersey Tunnel many times and often thought about the infrastructure behind the scenes. I missed the chance of a guided tour years ago, and always regretted it. Thanks for the video, Cheers!
I do too, if I'm in a small room and there is like an old vent fan or something it literally makes me anxious. I'm cool with normal cooling fans (no pun intended) but anything like this or some of the others you see around fill me with anxiety and yet I don't know why....
BIG VENT GUY!!!! I, from Ukraine, dream of visiting such a place! I love mechanical fans! At the Farmak Plant, where I installed Internet LAN connection systems somewhere in the period of 2005-2006, I saw ventilators more than 2 meters long (there is an exhaust system installed for filtering medical drugs! )
Lol i like the fans. There is a lot of urban exploring in my country so i often get so see abandoned fan systems as this and i think its rly fascinating.
@@seriouscat2231 Did you watch the video to the end? I'm a retired engineer, not a retard. It _IS_ still accelerating when the video cuts off. It is NOT done accelerating. Open your eyes before you open your mouth.
This is the tour it was taken from. not sure it gets to the speed requested because we had to move on but it may have a bit more on it. ua-cam.com/video/FX9GRVb8I1c/v-deo.html

They do regular tours now, This is most days
I have a fan phobia, I find these thighns frightening but mesmorising
I also have a fan phobia
Fan phobia exists?

Man that was loud but cool.
When was all this constructed?
They started mid 20s and it opened 1934. Same day as Walton hall park was also opened both by the King
I know boss your the man I love you
The motor is 6600 Volts ac three phase
50 Hz? Or 49.9999 Hz? Depending on time of day ...
Like the x files episode where the guy got sucked in.
Is this a blower or fan, it looks odd
It brings in air through the ventilation shaft and pumps it in to the tunnel
@@veryhighguy ok
What is that supposed to be for😅❓
Its the ventilation fan for the Queens way tunnel ( Old Mersey Tunnel ) it drags in air and pumps it in to the tunnel.
@@veryhighguy Ok thanks 👍
What is the power of the motor?
havnt a clue, listen to the guy talking at the start he is giving out details
@@veryhighguy I listened to him a couple of times but he didn't say anything about the motor
the max.power is 315 kw
@@saschafunk1644 At 6.6Kv.
Probably about 7000 hp I guess 😅
WHERES THE REST OF THE VIDEO SHOWING IT AT FULL SPEED??? WHY CUT IT SHORT??
This is the tour it was taken from. not sure it gets to the speed requested because we had to move on but it may have a bit more on it. ua-cam.com/video/FX9GRVb8I1c/v-deo.html
