Unlike radial blowers, axial blowers are often used when it comes to transporting large volume flows in connection with low pressures. This property is put to use by FIMA, for example, in wind tunnel fans to ensure an extremely homogeneous flow distribution.
Wind tunnel blowers
Wind tunnel blowers are used in performance tests and driving simulations with vehicles on chassis dynamometers to simulate the actual wind conditions that would be present outside of the simulation environment.
In addition to the usual wind tunnel blowers, FIMA manufactures and supplies machines with an L-shaped design. This space-saving variant provides an extremely homogeneous flow distribution and makes the simulation flow conditions reproducible. At the same time, the verified uniformity of the outlet velocity is guaranteed. Braking and acceleration can be simulated in real time with no delay times.
