Ceiling fan use for comfort cooling is growing in popularity as part of low energy HVAC solutions in commercial and industrial applications. While ceiling fans are a well-known technology, there has been very little design guidance or performance data to support engineered solutions, especially in commercial buildings. This seminar covers recent advances in ceiling fan research and design guidance, as well as industry practice, including results from field studies, case studies and design guides.
