Which way does the cooling fan blow?
The fan should blow air toward the engine (i.e., same direction as the air flow when the vehicle is in motion). If the fan is not OEM, the air volume may be off and the electrical characteristics could be different.
Should radiator fans push or pull?
A Push configuration is more efficient in cooling when its blowing cool(er) air from outside the plenum through a radiator. A Push also makes your build louder. In Pull configuration the fan or fans are drawing an air stream out of the radiator.
Which way should fan face on radiator?
If the radiator is mounted on the side of the vehicle, the fan should pull air in. The reasoning is that pulling outside air inwards will mean that cooler air will flow through the fins on the radiator instead of pushing hot air from around the hot engine through the radiator.
Which side of radiator fan goes on?
All shrouded fans should be on the engine side of the radiator.
How do you tell if a fan is pushing or pulling?
If there are no arrows, then you can tell by the sticker on the center of the fan. The one with the company logo on it is usually on the side that the air is flowing to. For example, if the fan is on the top of the case and the logo is facing up, then it is pulling air out of the case.
How do you know which side of the fan is intake?
The side with the brand logo on the center of the blades is the intake side. That’s where cool air is taken in and directed to your computer’s internal hardware components. Take a look at the pieces of plastic holding the middle hub or the center of the fan where the motor is mounted.
Which way should front case fans face?
When mounting case fans, air flows across the open side towards the side with the protective grille, like so: So the open side of the fan should face outside the case for intake fans on the front or the bottom, and it should face inside the case for fans on the rear or top.
Can I put fans on both sides of the radiator?
A push/pull setup is sometimes the best way to go. Using fans on both sides of the radiator is fine but if your radiator is cooling as well as it possibly can with fans on only one side, doubling your fan count is only going to cost more money and make the whole setup louder.
Which way should a fan be placed?
Which direction should a fan turn in the summer?
During summer months, your ceiling fan blades should be set to spin counterclockwise. When your ceiling fan spins quickly in this direction, it pushes air down and creates a cool breeze. This helps keep a room’s temperature consistent throughout the day and reduces the need for an air conditioner to run constantly.
