01 / Overview

Fans play an important role in daily life, as they can cool down, increase air convection, and provide a comfortable environment. So, what principle does the fan blade use to achieve these functions? Here, you can learn about the scientific principles of fan blades and personally assemble them for testing. Quickly activate your engineer's thinking and try assembling fans of different shapes!

02 / How visitors use it

The unit is designed for unsupervised public use: controls are recessed or shielded, moving parts are enclosed, and the interface is operable by a child of about six with no instruction. Where a screen is used, the language can be switched without changing the hardware, and the content can be replaced on site.

03 / The science behind it

Fan blades generally have a curved shape and follow the principles of aerodynamics. Ship shaped blades are commonly used in the design of fan blades, and their curved shape can provide maximum air thrust. The curved shape of the blades can quickly move air and accelerate the speed of air flow. In addition, the number and arrangement of fan blades also affect the effectiveness of the fan. Usually, fans use multiple blades, and according to the principle of air flow, the blades are arranged at specific angles to make the air flow smoother and more efficient. Engineer thinking is a systematic problem-solving approach that emphasizes starting from first principles and creatively applying scientific principles to solve problems. This way of thinking not only focuses on the essence of the problem, but also emphasizes practicality and feasibility, and is a closed-loop process from thinking to action.

04 / Built for a public floor

Every unit leaves the factory after a running test: mechanisms cycled, electronics burned in, edges dressed, fixings torqued and marked. Wear parts — bearings, sliders, lamps, belts, touch panels — are modular and listed on the spare-part sheet, so a venue technician can replace them without returning the exhibit. Crating is plywood with foam blocking; the loading plan and packing list travel with the shipment.
