Ventilateur centrifuge. Dans ce type, le fluide traverse l'aubage mobile dans le sens radial, du centre à la périphérie, et est recueilli par un diffuseur, généralement en forme de volute, muni d'une ouïe d'aspiration et d'un refoulement [...] Le ventilateur centrifuge peut aussi avoir deux ouïes d'aspiration disposées symétriquement. 3, record 1, French, - ventilateur%20centrifuge%20%C3%A0%20une%20ou%C3%AFe%20d%27aspiration

Single inlet(SI) fans are often tested for rating purposes in an arrangement without any inlet bearing; hence, the performance of SI fans with an inlet bearing will be slightly less than the catalogued value. The performance reduction will be proportionately greater for smaller fans than for larger fans due to the relatively greater blockage area. The reduction will be greater for higher-pressure fans than for low-pressure fans due to the larger bearing and bearing support. 3, record 2, English, - higher%2Dpressure%20fan
