An axial fan is a type of fan commonly used within everyday applications, such as air conditioners and computers. It causes both air and gas (depending on the application) to flow directly through it in an axial direction. Allowing the air/gas flow to be axial at both entry and exit. The most common versions tend to have fewer blades than a conventional ducted fan which have similar operations.
