Hello everyone .
I am still reading my ventilation in mines book and have hit a very interesting subject Fans for working mines
For example
The sirocco fan
Diameter range 98? installed at Wellesley fifeshire
All the way up to a big boy 154? double inlet Carlton mine Yorkshire
Then their is a waddle fan with a picture of a 15ft 400rpm and does 500,000 cubic air a minute with a 5ft water gauge in the book sorry I cannot do the photos on here ! But this range goes up to 30ft !
I was wondering if any of these monsters still exist today to view ?
Regards Tom
