    Fan Pump
AI Thread Summary
For a mist fan designed for evaporative cooling, a finer mist requires higher pressure, which is critical for effective cooling. The pump specifications should focus on achieving sufficient pressure to create a fine mist, particularly in high temperatures like those in Karachi, Pakistan. Tube diameter and nozzle specifications also play a significant role in the misting system's efficiency. The water flow rate must be considered to ensure adequate mist coverage. Properly selecting these components will enhance the cooling effect for birds in hot climates.

Dear All,

Would you please guide me regarding I want to make a mist fan. A low level mist is required almost 4 to 5 feet. I need all information regarding tube dia, nozzal specification specially pump specification.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Kashif Usman

Welcome to PF!

How misty? The finer the mist, the higher the required pressure. If you're looking to "mist" flowers, it won't need to be too high, but if you are looking to do evaporative cooling for people, you'll want a much finer mist and higher pressure. And how much water (flow rate)?

Thanks for reply. its all about cooling but not for people... I am bird lover and in Karachi, Pakistan temperature is almost 42 C. Water is stored in tanks.

Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'

Scenario 1 (figure 1) A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material. The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm). At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force. Key numbers...

Thread 'Cantilever help'

I'm trying to decide what size and type of galvanized steel I need for 2 cantilever extensions. The cantilever is 5 ft. The space between the two cantilever arms is a 17 ft Gap the center 7 ft of the 17 ft Gap we'll need to Bear approximately 17,000 lb spread evenly from the front of the cantilever to the back of the cantilever over 5 ft. I will put support beams across these cantilever arms to support the load evenly
