How Does a Dyson Fan Work?
The Dyson Air Multiplier consists of a large metal ring set upon a cylindrical base, creating a localized low-pressure environment to circulate air without using blades. You can safely reach your arm through the ring and all you'd feel would be the rush of air.
Air Intake and Expulsion
The Dyson's base houses a turbo-charged impeller --- a small fan that draws air into the base. The impeller expels the captured air through a small aperture into the ring, which creates a jet of air.
Vacuum Effect
The air expelled from the ring creates a low-pressure area that sucks the surrounding air into the ring's other end. This action multiplies the air volume flowing through the ring by 15 times, allowing the Dyson fan to circulate 118 gallons of air per second.
Airflow
Bladed fans chop the air passing through them, creating a turbulent sensation when you're close to them. Thanks to its lack of spinning blades, the Dyson Air Multiplier delivers a smooth flow of air that feels like a breeze.
