WARNING Prolonged Exposure May Damage Hearing | Fan Showdown S4E2

[@CADmade]

That worked pretty much how I expected it would. Maybe even better lol. It was lots of fun though and I’m glad I could participate! Some of the more complex designing I’ve done in a while. Hopefully I didn’t damage your ears too bad!

[@shadowopsairman1583]

The Duplicator needs gap filling bearings Hoppees

[@madAlric]

i loved it! the biggest change i’d make is some bearings for the gear shafts, it’s a super fun design, though! i was thinking during the video that that and staggered-height fans might allow for longer blades and smoother movement.

[@legoman786]

What about helical cut gears, instead of straight cuts?

[@neshugg9486]

The little fans need a shroud. I think not having it made the air disperse a lot. Also could some blades(2~4) be added to the main gear? Just not as big as a normal fan. Half of the space being used by those blades and half by the gears. There are many ways to approach this design haha

[@stevecade857]

It just needs more oil to make it quieter. About a gallon in a bucket would do. Great fun fan.

I'm most impressed with the missing blade fan; it still pushes reasonable air, is not crazy loud, and is shockingly well balanced given its wonky appearance. Great job Marnix!

[@justinwatson1510]

Thats the power of calculus. I'm assuming they used calculus, I would hate to try to solve that problem with trial and error.

[@Power5]

I love how the smoke was even like, "no way am I getting close to that loud fan." Those back swept blades on the falchion seemed to make quite smooth airflow. Not sure if it is the fences or the blade direction not funneling all the air towards the middle like a forward swept blade. I always forget if you are using the stock a12x25 fan or the 3D printed fan for the standings. If the injection molded, smoothed, production quality one, then I think you should change it out for a 3D printed version just to keep finish quality from affecting standings.

[@prydzen]

I also would like to see how it translates into cooling performance. Center moving air vs uniform flow. Although i guess the straightener on the cheater showed it improves it. I also would like to see 3d printed noctua and t33 as reference on the board.

[@cowrocket3870]

He did an episode a while back discussing surface finish. It has no measurable effect outside the margin of error. Weight of the blade would matter though.

[@zetsubou3704]

iirc He did do a 3d printed a12x25 and it had almost no performance difference.

[@zenntrox8695]

[@chubbysumo2230]

the missing fan blade method is a method currently employed by many automakers, and was used as early as the 1950's on radiator fans to change the audio profile to something less annoying and choppy. it actually works, and moves just as much air as if the fan blade was there.

[@Thommie_techno]

Ah yes! This is indeed true! I remembered again thanks to you

[@matthewnardin7304]

Pretty sure another fan did a similar thing. Maybe in season 1.

[@qazaq25]

Always a good day when a new Fan Showdown episode comes out and I'm already looking forward to the next! Two quick notes for anyone designing a gear fan based on my research and experience designing the contra (+the update I'm working on) First the distance I used from the top of the motor to the underside of the frame was 2.5mm based on the prior video this seem to be a good ball park figure to keep in mine to avoid parts rubbing. Second, gears with smaller teeth at a higher tooth count should produce less noise. For the contra I played it safe with straight cut gears and a module of 1 but in some recent test prints I've gotten gears with a 30 degree helix and a module of 0.5 to print beautifully on a 0.4 print head so getting noise down to a "reasonable" level might be achievable

[@seeker1015]

Spur gears are inherently noisy which is why older gear boxes in cars & trucks make a lot of noise and why vehicle makers moved to helical cut gears in the late 50s early 60s. Many still left 1st, 2nd and reverse as spur cut and this is evident when cars/trucks of this vintage move off or back up. Parson's turbine put into a Royal Navy ship used Helical cut gears for this reason. The noise would have been unbearable plus Helical cut distribute load better across the teeth reducing gear stripping. Effectively two teeth are engaged at once whereas a spur cut gear hops from one tooth to the next. As you note, smaller teeth make less noise simply because the 'hop' is smaller. More precision can help too.

[@travisSimon365]

Two things: the missing blade fan sounds amazing (from the perspective of a musician (who doesn't have to listen to it all day long)). And the duplicator is amazing - it looks like a special effect entry into the fan showdown. Maybe not optimal performance, but that airflow is wild.

[@WDMurphy]

These clockpunk fans are cool even if not really practical.

[@iamzid]

the spinny duct fan makes me wonder how well a cone shaped fan would work, with the small end of the cone being the intake. it seems to be throwing a good deal of air back out and i think it must be because of the angled part at the blades acting with centrifugal force.

[@njalsand133]

A nozzle of sorts could work

[@leifvejby8023]

Yes, seems to me he rotated it the wrong way-

[@smokie3248]

Definitely seems it needs to be reversed. Look at how a rocket nozzle is designed for Instance. I bet it would perform decently well.

[@mauricerohrer]

Exactly, Spin the other way and it will perform much better.

[@EnderMalcolm]

The Spinning Duct kinda looks like a restaurant's Hood Exhaust Fan system. What if we made one as a case fan, since they obviously do a great job at getting air out of an area?

[@EinhanderSn0m4n]

Spinny Duct, like the last iteration of that idea, keeps trying to act as a centrifugal pump. Perhaps time to abandon that idea. Missing Blade sounds like a variant of the uneven spaced blade idea for noise reduction. The Falchion is rather quiet given that anyone who owns an EVGA 10 series GPU could tell you about how loud the back swept fan blade design on them can get! Duplicator gets no comment from me other than that it makes my teeth itch how loud it is for so little airflow.

[@Cynyr]

lean all the way into that and go for the housed fan arrangement.

[@EinhanderSn0m4n]

@@Cynyr That's essentially The Cheater.

[@martindinner3621]

@@EinhanderSn0m4n okay, so take the Cheater one step farther and apply deLaval nozzle principals to it.

[@blahorgaslisk7763]

Or you could reverse the blades on the Spinny Duct so the blades push the air in the same direction as the centrifugal forces. But even then I feel the spinning duct idea isn't that promising. To high a load on the bearings in the fan motor is just part of the problem. The design could however probably be adapted to be used as the cone part of the Cheater. It would be interesting to see three different configurations for this. Just the cone, the cone with the blades as they currently are and the cone with the blades reversed. With the blades retained in the cone they would act as a stator for the actual fan. However usually the stator is placed on the outlet side of the fan. So it would be interesting to see if adding a stator on the intake improves or decrease the performance and is so what it does for the noise. Edit: Yes the missing blade fan changes the frequency spectrum for the noise, and that's why some fans has had uneven blade geometry. Instead of one sharp spike in the frequency graph the noise is supposedly spread out over a wider spectrum, but with less energy in any one frequency that what you get with evenly spaced fan blades. And the frequency graph seems to support this.

[@EinhanderSn0m4n]

@@martindinner3621 De Laval nozzles are exclusively for supersonic flow or pressures exceeding a few entire atmospheres of pressure. If your fan setup is generating supersonic flows or massive pressures, something absolutely bugfuck insane is going on and you need to show it to Pratt and Whitney or Aerojet Rocketdyne.

[@ibrake4trees1]

I really want to see some of the top fans pitted against THEMSELVES, traditionally printed vs resin printed. It'd be super cool to see how a smoother surface changes performance

[@anthonymunoz6013]

I'm no physicist but the "spinny thingy" appears to work against itself as the centrifugal energy is forced backwards in the cone/duct. It would be interesting to see the inverse of the cone where it used the CF to assist in moving the air through the fan by creating more of a vacuum aft making the air to "want" to flow through duct faster. Just some thoughts. Awaiting patiently.

[@ValTek_Armory]

the filament is less of a yellow and more of a Shrek green. I love it!

[@linsen8890]

The Duplicator gear fan is way, way louder than the air compressor in my shop! I don't think I have time to work on it, but for me it would be super interesting to design the quietest fan possible that still moves air well (like about as well as the reference fan).

[@deltatrooper0078]

id maybe put spinny ducts on the duplicator's mini fans to stop it acting like a centrifugal pump and forcing air into the middle

[@slavko5666]

7:06 Do it in a diagonal order, to make it more balanced. Same thing is done on car wheels.

[@sheldonhall4572]

Few suggestions to the duplicator: I think if you added some thin clacking strips and a striker, add the smoke machine and turned the fan to a random pulse you have yourself an automatic New Years Cela-tron 2000 lol.

[@Leon-Jordan]

I feel like the fan gears should be helical due to them having less resistance and being quieter. It's worth a test. Edit: also some small electronics gear oil would be great for sound reduction.

[@jasonvick6617]

Should've made the center gear a helical gear so it also moves a little bit of air. Wouldn't have made a huge difference but it would probably be worth something.

[@Mykul403]

I was thinking that too, but then the smaller gears would have to turn the other way, possibly nullifying any benefit of the helical gear. However, helical gears might make it quieter.

[@coler154]

or a harringbone gear

[@BalisticBJ]

Thanks for printing my fan! I designed the spiny duct and seeing the test results and reading the comments gave me some great ideas. I redesigned it to have a smaller inlet and larger outlet. Also reduced the weight by almost 80% so it should spin much faster. Hoping V2 performs much better than V1.

[@Kualinar]

The Duplicator's gears need to be MUCH finer. It need about 3 to 4 times the current teeth number. Then, making them chevron type will also help reducing the noise level.

[@zj6074]

Would also help to have a second brace on the rear of the frame to better stabilize the gears against the hub.

[@likesbikes77]

I wonder if the spinny duct was so turbulent because it was producing magnus effect?

[@Oblithian]

Not just its spinning. You could see it slapping air back out the mouth with how much it wobbled.

[@NafrytiNosferatu]

if that spinning duct fan had impeller pegs at the angle shift point, it would kick off that airflow adhering to the sides of the outside of the duct, just something i learned from another KZbinr, airflow will stick to surfaces and with the taper going backwards, it's effectively flowing air backwards on the outside of the duct.

[@pdxcerealkilla9847]

You should release a supercut of every smoke test to use as a visualizer while listening to music and working!

[@Mutantroosta.Gaming]

spinnyduct needs its blades reversed for it to work, alot of the smoke looked to be hitting the skirt and get flung back the way it came

[@tigheklory]

The Spinny duct being tapered has centripetal forces working against it and pushing air out the front starving the blades, if anything the taper should be the opposite, narrower the further out that would accelerate the air to the blades.

[@TesserId]

[@tylerm124]

The like 1000 blade fan will spin, but suck because like half of each blade is directly over the motor meaning any air pulled to that area will get pushed sideways and make a bunch of dirty air that the fan itself cant grab so drop the efficiency to like poopoo. Thats my guess.

[@Artrobull]

[@DUKE_of_RAMBLE]

The spiny duct isn't a Velocity Stack, at least not as designed there. A velocity stack has a few distinct features, namely, the leading surface is curved to act like an airfoil and accelerate air into the mouth (via high/low pressure differences), and also has a progressive taper to the inlet. Pretty sure the straight sides in this design was one contributing factor in the air not wanting to enter (another reason, as someone else mentioned, could be Magnus Effect... although that might the proper name for what I was pointing out? haha 😊😅)

[@jamesdrake2135]

Some cars use a fan blade set-up somewhat like the "missing blade" for their radiator fans, with the blades unevenly spaced but balanced. This setup results in a less harmonized or droning sound which is more pleasant over long duration (at least to the test audiences).

[@jamesmichael6415]

the ducted fan has a wobble the sound it makes is it hitting the frame of the fan rig, and that slow smoke on the geared fan was perfect

[@seldoon_nemar]

Random fun fact. if you get a light meter, there is a theater trick where if you get just the right amount of fog, everything looks like it's underwater. I only mention this because you play with fog enough, you could just do your closings "underwater" occasionally for giggles

[@alexp974]

I had high hopes for the spinny duct, I think the creator is on the right track for success by integrating a shroud and fan together. It just needs the blades reworked.

[@galfisk]

Maybe it needs blades all the way out, to counteract the centrifuge effect. And an actual flare at the opening, since that's what makes air able to flow around the edge smoothly.

[@aaronsantics1470]

You should increase fan size and stagger the height on the duplicator.

[@Tom5TomEntertainment]

Yo dawg, we heard you like fans so we put fans on your fans

[@huntercarter5426]

I don’t know if you’ve perhaps mentioned this at some point in the series but I figured it was worth noting. Noise is energy. So therefore the noise level of a fan can, not always of course but in a majority of cases, indicate the level of efficiency. At least in the cases above 55 db. Most of the time that extra noise is lost energy.

[@nialltracey2599]

The unusual sound quality of the MFBBSB is what's termed "octave reinforcement" in acoustics. Because the gap between the heavy blade pair is twice that of the gap between all other pairs, the frequency of sound it generates is a whole octave lower. Although it's a much weaker wave than the wave an octave up, the higher frequency supports the lower one, and assists our ears in picking it out, so you end up with an overall effect that your ear is *receiving* sound that is very similar to most fans, but is *perceiving* a much lower tone. To my ear, this also makes the fact that there is any tuned pitch at all much more obvious.

[@jimmybaldino5026]

Some older truck engines included cooling fans with asymmetrical blade spacing to change the harmonics of the airflow noise

9:35 where do you get so much smoke?

[@Matthew_Lang]

Wow, 2 impressive fans for sure! I love seeing what people can come up with. I just wonder what would happen if the blades were extended to the end of the SpinnyDuct, but have the fan blades taper off the closer they get to the edge of the duct. And man, the Duplicator! While it didn't set any records at all, it is still very impressive! I'm just curious if it's because the fan blades all spin the same way. The trick would be to figure out how to get every other fan hub to spin the opposite way, similarly to how some of the GPU's have one set of fins and hub setup to spin the opposite direction. That in itself may be a feat for someone to take on. I don't care if it finished last, I don't care if it was loud. It put a smile on my face, and I'm glad you do the smoke test, because I was wondering what the air flow looked like. I've said it before, and I'll say it again, Keep up the great work! I do enjoy the weekly uploads, and I always look forward to them. Cheers!

[@JBMetalShop]

The large ducted fan is a cool idea, but more mass equals more slowerer. But really, the friction from the ring moving seems ot throw the air away not help draw it in, ideally we want to turn that Kinetic energy of the fan to velocity in the through the fan direction not so much radial velocity. Other cool thing i learned: The fans can add velocity, pressure, and head. You can have all three or any one, but thats what fans and pumps do.

[@jeffwells641]

The Spinning Duct seems to create an internal vortex that plugs up the hole rather than assisting flow like a duct stack normally does.

[@loughkb]

I'd put that missing blade fan on my bedside table at nap time. Something about that sound was so very soothing.

[@Roy-K]

I’d be curious to see how different lengths of intake ducts affect airflow - so for a given fan design, how does it help performance if you add a 10mm long intake? 20mm? 50mm? Like how much would it take to notice an effect, and would that be a reasonable sized mod for a normal PC?

[@EpicATrain]

[@BJL2142]

[@dafoex]

I'm wondering, since the spinning duct, uh, spins the duct, is there something weird like the Coandă effect happening, meaning air near the surface of the duct is pushed back out? Its potentially not the coandă effect, but its the only thing that is coming to mind right now

[@mrbluelynxchannel5207]

Hey uhh... Where can I go to get the sound of these fans alone? I think the noise would add some character to the sounds I make in abelton.

[@GordieGii]

The effect of centrifugal force is so often overlooked. If the blade in The Spinning Duct were canted the other way it would probably do an amazing job at blowing the air the other way.

[@dakota5041]

Curious if alternating the pitch on the duplicators blades push/pull might help move air around better

I'm loving these multi part fans!! It made me think of a ridiculous fan. The ifbiaac (inefficient fan because its actually a clock).

It would be the loudest thing in the world, and take 1000x more power than a regular clock, yet it seems fitting for this show.

[@volodymyr.kushnir]

#suggestion 1) it seems for most designs (but not crazy ones...) you can try to check same cooler with different amount of blades. It is quite interesting how blades impact on the overall performance. 2) also you need another top list for cases 3) consider adding more top lists by most important factors

[@HelloKittyFanMan.]

Oooh, you brought back the spin-up shot for one fan, nice, thanks! Also thanks for putting CF(P)M in big text right below (L)FPM. But can I just ask: Why the quotation marks around the CFM figure? It's like you think that's kind of a fake number. What did you mean for real: parentheses (or even no punctuation)?

[@JointerMark]

Would the current draw be different each fan? A higher current draw would, l think, add to the cooling load making the cooling effectiveness of the fan all the more important?

[@17473039]

If I designed and printed a mod for the stock fan that noticeably improved the fans static pressure, with a very slight improvement in unreatricted flow to boot, would that be something that might be interesting for this format?

[@gustavobalmaceda2346]

sticking the funnel of that to the propellers is counterproductive. by adding weight you will decrease the speed of rotation of the propeller decreasing its efficiency. In addition, the larger and heavier the propeller is, the more difficult it is to balance, so it can charge a lot and lose efficiency if too. And all that without taking into account how annoying it would be to have all that plastic sticking out of a PC chassis. In short, it's a very bad idea. With the 3rd I would be very surprised if those little fins were taken away from the turn it would make any difference in the volume of air it moves. After all, a fan works very differently than an airplane wing or propeller, they have very different objectives. And what about the super complex, its design is bad wherever you look at it.

[@veloxsouth]

the wing fences don't prevent the wing from stalling all at once. They prevent the wing tip from stalling first, which would cause a violent roll.

[@reignandbongao9497]

I think we could push the duplicator concept further, split the sungear into two layers; with the first one being the regular spur gear and the bottom one being a fan of its own
