Centrifugal fans take air from an inlet, then add velocity using kinetic force, and expel the air at a 90° angle from the original intake direction. The air usually enters through the side, and is accelerated by a series of impellers encased in a circular housing. After the air moves through the fan wheel, and is radially turned 90 degrees, it exits the fan housing through an outlet. Centrifugal fans are used extensively in industrial applications. At a constant fan speed, they move a consistent volume of air under diverse conditions. The air speed is relatively fixed, even if the air mass is not. To their advantage, centrifugal fans are usually simpler in construction and cheaper to manufacture than axial fans.
