Fan Performance
The fan performance curves discussed so far are typical of both the centrifugal
and fixed-pitch vaneaxial fans. To complete the discussion, the fan performance
curves of the variable-pitch vaneaxial (VPVA) fan will be reviewed.
While this type of fan operates at a constant speed, the pitch (angle) of its
blades can be adjusted to match the airflow and pressure requirements of the
system.
