Have you ever thought about the gigantic fans with large blades, which are present in some large spaces where there is no way for ventilation or exhaust? You might think that if regular fans are doing the same work, then why have they used these huge fans, and even they are not giving much cooling than a regular fan, and don’t even rotate fast.
So, let’s understand these fans and why they are preferred in large spaces.
What are HVLS Fans
HVLS (High Volume, Low Speed) Fans are the giant fans having a diameter of more than 7 feet (2.1 m) in diameter with large blades. These mechanical fans are mounted in large areas to provide massive airflow. The fans are made with a larger circle of circulation where the air movement is needed, such as commercial compartments, warehouses, and factory plants.
The low-speed, big-volume capacity of the HVLS fan also amplifies air movement, and it enables optimal control of humidity, which enables large rooms to be in the desired humidity, thus making such rooms humid or dry when needed. This can help make the environment more comfortable and help save on energy used to cool or warm any place where cooling and heating are necessary.
Working of HVLS Fans
HVLS fans operate based on a principle of using a large multiplier in blade area rather than high velocity or speed as a way of transporting large air masses at low air velocities. Take more advantage of a regular air blowing law, according to which the movement of air disintegrates the moist boundary layer around the body and facilitates the evaporation of the sweat, causing a cooling effect. When the ceiling fans are rotating, a column of air is created. This column of air falls onto the floor. Known as a horizontal floor jet, it is a deep wall of horizontal moving air and proportional to the size of a fan and, to a lesser extent, the speed of a fan. When the floor jet gains its potential, it travels outward until hitting a side wall or some other vertical surface.
When perfect conditions are maintained, a 2.4 m diameter (8 ft) fan would generate a 36-inch (910 mm) deep floor jet of air. A fan of 24-foot (7.3 m) diameter throws a 108 inches (2,700 mm) deep (10 ft (3.0 m)) floor jet, deep enough to submerge a standing human or cow, its original development target.
The difference between commercial HVLS fans and residential ceiling fans concerns diameter, rotational speed, and performance. Several fans use modern blades to circulate air, but other techniques are also being employed to increase the efficiency of air circulation, such as airfoils.
HVLS Fans for Temple
HVLS (High Volume Low Speed) fans are beneficial for places where there is a higher chance of a crowd gathering at the same time. A temple is a place where the number of devotees does not decrease due to their faith in God. Now, there is a higher chance that a large number of devotee comes on the same day or at the same time(especially during a religious occasion). This may lead to suffocation as there is no place for the air to escape.
So, a place like a temple or other large spaces needs a solution that handles the air circulation and maintains the oxygen level, and also the humidity in the air. That’s where HVLS fans help to exhaust the air and maintain the air quality, and also in temperature regulation for their comfort. These giant fans cover a large area and circulate them so the hot air can escape from the space. In return, it provides a cooling effect and maintains the room temperature.
Key Benefits of HVLS Fans
Amongst the advantages HVLS fans have over the traditional fans are:
Energy Efficiency: Since the fan is of low speed and displaces an immense amount of air, the HVLS fans consume less energy compared to conventional fans.
Enhanced Comfort: The smooth, non-obtrusive air flow provided by HVLS fans has the potential to make a room more comfortable, particularly in rooms with high ceilings.
Better Air Circulation. Improved air circulation can be achieved through the horizontal air movement produced by the HVLS fans, which helps in eliminating hot/cold spots in a room.
HVAC Costs: HVAC costs can also be reduced with the help of HVLS fans since they improve the air circulation and make the temperature less varied across a room.
Low maintenance: HVLS fans do not need as much maintenance as traditional fans due to the reduced number of moving parts.
