Using compressed air or steam, Hurricane air blowers provide high volumes of air with NO MOVING PARTS. Hurricane blowers are used in supplying or exhausting applications such as: tanks, towers, refineries, process plants, pressure vessels, cooling/drying applications, foundries, sand blasting and shipyard applications, manholes, cargo holes, and other similar confined work areas. Hurricanes are also suited for use in hazardous atmospheric locations.
VENTURI AIR BLOWERS PRINCIPLE
OF OPERATION
In the Hurricane, air or steam enters a concentric manifold chamber
surrounding a Venturi throat. A series of orifices located symmetrically
around the chamber are positioned to expand the air or steam into the
reaction zone downstream of the throat. It is here that the high
velocity air or steam imparts its energy to slower moving air and
accelerates it, which in turn draws more air through the throat into the
reaction zone. A conical-shaped diffuser controls direction and
expansion of the accelerated air.
