Can an air circulator be used as a fan?

Air circulation fan as a brand new fan products, after entering the market, by a lot of people love, however, for the first contact with the air circulation fan consumers, a common problem is: air circulation fan can be used directly like the traditional fan to achieve the effect of cooling? This article will from the working principle, technical characteristics, comfortable experience, price and applicable scenarios and other dimensions, the air circulation fan and the traditional fan for a detailed comparison, in order to help consumers to make a more intelligent choice.

1, the working principle

The most unique core of the air circulation fan is the unique aerodynamic design. It drives the turbofan through a strong motor, and the air is sucked in and forms a spiral columnar wind through the flow guide grid, so as to realize the rapid convection and circulation of indoor air. This design allows the air circulation fan to generate a steady wind over a long distance, effectively improving the indoor air quality.

An ordinary fan uses a motor to drive the blades to rotate, creating a straight line of wind. This design makes the wind of the ordinary fan mainly concentrated in front of the fan blade, and the wind direction is relatively simple, which is suitable for local cooling or ventilation.

2, technical characteristics

The air circulation fan adopts DC brushless motor, which has the advantages of good speed regulation performance, low noise, long life, etc., and the blade design of the air circulation fan is mostly the use of multi-layer or double-layer multi-leaf design, which can produce a soft sense of wind, and has the 3D three-dimensional wide-angle shaking function of the upper and lower left and right, which can achieve a full range of air convection.

Ordinary fan using AC motor, this motor speed performance is poor, larger noise, but the cost is low, ordinary fan blade design is relatively simple, usually single-layer fan, lack of blower design, wind dispersion, short air supply distance, ordinary fan usually can only shake the head around, the wind direction is more fixed, it is difficult to achieve a full range of air convection.

3, the effect of comparison

Traditional fans reduce the body surface temperature by blowing direct air, and the cooling effect is immediate, but only in the area where the fan blows directly. Air circulation fans, on the other hand, accelerate the flow of air in the room, so that the temperature distribution throughout the room is more even. Although the initial cooling may not be as rapid as the direct air, but over time, the overall comfort of the room will be significantly improved.

Traditional fans blow directly on the human body, which may cause local excessive cooling over a long period of time, causing headaches, joint discomfort and other problems. In contrast, the air circulation fan reduces the need for direct blowing by promoting air circulation, thus improving the comfort of use, especially suitable for the elderly, children and people with weak physique.

Traditional fans have limited coverage and can usually only effectively cool the area directly in front of the fan. Air recirculating fans circulate through the air and are able to affect the temperature of the entire room, making them especially suitable for large Spaces that require quick and even cooling.

4, the price

The price of air circulation fan is usually more than 500 yuan, although the price is higher, but the performance of air circulation fan is superior, can provide further air supply distance, softer wind sense and lower noise, air circulation fan with air conditioning use, but also can significantly reduce the energy consumption of air conditioning, long-term use can save electricity.

The price of ordinary fan is low, usually between 100 yuan and 300 yuan, the function of ordinary fan is relatively single, mainly to provide local cooling effect, it is difficult to achieve the whole house air convection, the energy consumption of ordinary fan is relatively high, and the long-term use of electricity costs are more.

5, the application scenario

Small space: In small Spaces such as bedrooms and study rooms, traditional fans are often more popular because of their direct and rapid cooling effect. Especially at night, people may be more inclined to directly feel the cool breeze of the fan to help them fall asleep.

Large space/open space: For large Spaces such as living rooms and dining rooms or open living environments, the advantages of air circulation fans are more obvious. It can quickly stir the air in the whole space, avoid local overheating, and reduce the dependence on a specific location, making the whole space more comfortable.

Specific needs: For the need to quickly remove moisture, odor or improve indoor air quality, such as newly renovated houses, wet basements, etc., the circulation function of the air circulation fan is particularly critical, which can effectively accelerate air circulation and promote the discharge of harmful gases and moisture.

To sum up, air circulation fans can not only be used as fans, but also surpass traditional fans in many ways. It is not only able to quickly and evenly reduce the indoor temperature, but also improves the indoor air quality by promoting air circulation and reducing the health risks caused by direct blowing. Although the initial investment may be slightly higher than traditional fans, air circulation fans are certainly an option worth considering given their higher energy efficiency, wider applicability and positive health effects.
