the Dyson bladless fan relies on forcing air out along one side of the rim of a ring, so drawing air from the other side of the ring to create more airflow
the household implementation of the fan uses an ordinary air compressor at the base to pump the air into the ring, and this creates a noise which is more prominent than that which is produced by the blades of a regular fan
does anyone know , if anyone has used the bladless fan in such a way as to have the compressor at a remote location, and the ring connected by high pressure air hoses to the compressor?
furthermore, for the pump/compressor, it needs to be able to have a high air flow rate, especially when it is supplying compressed air to many bladeless fans...would a design like the compressor stages of a jet turbine engine work well?
the idea is that it would compress the air, causing it to heat up... the hot compressed air would then pass through a radiator section where flowing air bypassed from the pump (somewhat like the bypass air from modern jet engines) will cool the air to near ambient temperatures... when the compressed air reaches the fans, the decompression will cause a temperature drop in the air, thus provide an air conditioning effect, in addition to supplying fresh air in the building and causing large amounts of air circulation due to the function of the bladless fan
