Dyson Invents The Air Multiplier–A Fan Without Any Blades!

Written by ohryankelley / October 16, 2009 9:26 pm / 1 Comment

We're still wrapping our heads around this one so bear with us, but if we understand this correctly the Dyson Company is one step closer to building hovercrafts! This week Dyson announced the Dyson Air Multiplier, a new fan that accelerates and amplifies air to cool you down. From the same company that created the bagless vacuum and the dual drum washing machine now comes the amazing technology of a fan with no blades. By circulating air and multiplying it by FIFTEEN, Dyson has created a fan that is not only safer than traditional bladed fans but also more eco-friendly by reducing energy consumption!

But how is this possible? How does the Dyson Air Multiplier work?

  1. Air is sucked in through the motor at the base of the fan
  2. The air then enters a large loop that has gaps that run around the entire inner circle
  3. The air shoots through the loop, picking up speed and is then forced over a curved ramp inside the loop which creates a mini tornado effect
  4. The air is then multiplied 15x it's normal speed and is then pushed out of the loop
