    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

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 'A practical way to vaporize fuel for high MPG?'

Here's a video by “driving 4 answers” who seems to me to be well versed on the details of Internal Combustion engines. The video does cover something that's a bit shrouded in 'conspiracy theory', and he touches on that, but of course for phys.org, I'm only interested in the actual science involved. He analyzes the claim of achieving 100 mpg with a 427 cubic inch V8 1970 Ford Galaxy in 1977. Only the fuel supply system was modified. I was surprised that he feels the claim could have been...

Thread 'Turbocharging carbureted petrol 2 stroke engines'

Hi everyone, online I ve seen some images about 2 stroke carbureted turbo (motorcycle derivation engine). Now.. In the past in this forum some members spoke about turbocharging 2 stroke but not in sufficient detail. The intake and the exhaust are open at the same time and there are no valves like a 4 stroke. But if you search online you can find carbureted 2stroke turbo sled or the Am6 turbo. The question is: Is really possible turbocharge a 2 stroke carburated(NOT EFI)petrol engine and...
