Please test this: I think the bladeless fan would move more air with only the outer shell and all internal shells deleted.
this is some big nerd shit but i fuckin love it
Petition for a competition using carbon fiber as the substrate
You really should take Trinity and put a ring the outside the the 3 blades...that should drive up the flow rate and drive down the noise also... Your losing flow and making excess noise by tip vortices.
1:47 The bow tie
Why didnt you try to put more voltage in the bladeless fan ?
What would happen if you took the bladeless fan and glued the same design and printed twice and glued them back to each other making a ventri effect. You may have to invert it from a sphere to a cone type shape to make a converging diverging or just play with the openings on each side..
This is strangely entertaining and interesting. Even if its just little PC fans.
I’ve been unsubbed from your channel 3 times now. What’s the deal?
Enis is pronounced like penis but without the "P."

is there any reference to noctua's own design or are we not even getting close?
Did he say PROPS to Sean
Where can I find the stl file for the 3 bladed fan?
Centrifugal. Centrifugal ugh he said it sooo wrong
Where can I get that shirt?
In 20 years this channel be like *Yes, lads, it's time again for GPU showdown! Yet again you guys have submitted your GPU designs...*
✝️God loves you so much ! Jesus is king ! ✝️
I love how he rips a fat vape and calls it air testing. Genius 👌🏾😆
It's a Tesla turbine. With gasses the gaps need to be quite small en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_turbine
that airfoil fan though makes so much sense. if it can perform lift on an airplane then maybe it'll pull more air into the PC seems that hypothisis was correct.
compare these designs should be with the same size. Large one is always better than small one. Large one has better performance like low noise , large flow rate & low power.
What sorcery is this? I just randomly got here? What am I watching lol.
Поделка неочём...
Pc needs that
yo it sounds like there's 2 N's but like there isnt tho
Could you beat the bladeless with just a large heatsink with no fan? what's the largest air cooler that can be bought retail that doesnt use a fan (or could safely run with the fan removed)?
@Thomas farquhar I know a fan is more efficient than no fan, but im just wondering if (and not for my build, purely for experimential learning) a large heatsink and no fan. Can do better than a small cooler with a shit fan. The benefit being: No fan at all = ultimate noise test winner
A heatsink works with the cold air going over it and pushing the heat energy out, thus meaning a fan would still make it way more efficient
I think you need more RGB in the background. I’m not sure that I was thoroughly distracted by the current level of blinking color shifting light! Also the noise reduction R&D is cool but without CFM and Static pressure data is it really useful?
It's just a horizontal fan
Alternate title: Fan guy simps Sean the crazy bladeless fan inventor
Wait what if it’s pronounced ennis and he is a girl?
"vapes into fans"
Day 265: Finally, I gave myself up to youtube's weird 3D printed fan algorithm...
should've said "btw my name is prounounce like dennis but note WITHOUT the d" i already feel with him on his childhood struggles
Collab with Linus!
It`s not baldeless, it just have a blade with a different design.
The fission I didn't think I would like the fission until I seen it running and it has a really cool like shimmering pattern. There was a time I was all about fan performance and had a bunch of Scythe Ultra Kaze 3000s (133 cfm fans) on my wet bench but it was such overkill they never spooled up unless I raised the baseline, so I put some RGB Corsair fans in it with the lights in the hub instead of the housing because it looks much better and more even lighting. My water loop can quite possibly keep the CPU cool without any fans on the rad given the volume of water, and radiator surface area. I think I'm going to test it actually. Anyway my point was I can sacrifice airflow (going to much lower performing fans) for appearances with 0 change to my temps so why not have some fun with it? =)
fans sending fans. and one of then is the biggest fan of fans. or so I hear.
do you post the 3d files of the winners anywhere for us to download and print?
The Bladeless would win at an RPM that makes it sound like the competition.
Can the stl file be shared for the bladeless?
The youtube algorithm is wild. A few minutes ago I was watching videos of prison fights and now I'm watching a video on 3d printed fans
Winglets
Is there a fan using the force like a tornado does?
It isn't bladeless. The connecting bits act as blades.
Maybe I missed it, but have you ever shown us how loud the test bench is with NO fan? I’m curious what’s the effective minimum decibels.
Oh no , Im a Fan
one of these days, someone's gonna send you an average enjoyer
The “blade-less” fan isn’t free from “blades” they aren’t exposed in the traditional sense, but there are still blades and they are just enclosed. The vertical structure walls that run the length of the cone and have a pretty substantial width are in a sense directing the airflow down and to the layers of circular channels while exiting out the concaved slits. It’s just a different design.
So sad, Trinity fan had airfoils backwards! Who else noticed?
First video I've seen of yours. Very interesting approach, good eye candy, well put together. I grant you +1 subscriber. :D
Well some more engineering in the bladeless and it will be the one
I noticed in one of the videos you had an air speed meter could you not print a funnel to go from the fan to the meter this would give the exact flow of the fans.
'airfoil" should have been named ax
Someone should combine the bladeless and the three fan design to see what happens
Wouldn't it be easier to see the air flow if there was a wall that divided the smoke side from the clear side? 7:15
I'm all for the fan using less plastic.
someone should make a fan that focuses more on the air being pulled in near the center, the closer to the centrifuge, the better
how about levitating fan with magnates
the fans looks a bit heavy, i think that the beering of a normal fan will have a trastically reduced lifetime.
Welp, had no idea their were people 3d printing or showcasing Fans. Cool
Im pretty interested in these and i regret not clicking on the bell
The other video aside you should DEFINITELY try acetone smoothing the bladeless design for better performance. It's counterintuitive but what you've basically got there is a modified Tesla Turbine design. It's relying on what Tesla called "adhesion" to induce movement in the working fluid and adhesion works best with glossy smooth rotors.
As part of the smoke test what if you use a smoke ring shooter, so we can also see how the fans effect existing air currents?
Just stumbled across your vid. Always good to see new designs made. All good and well, video nice quality, decent sound, some humor, decent pace (apart of too long smoke sequences) but one massive thing missing if this is to be anyhow serious and to have any meaningful take off - you simply have to have a proper testing methodology. Sucking some smoke is good for cigar lovers but totally useless for measuring performance of cooling fans. Also, compared to mainstream fans (it is a pity you didn't have one as a bench mark, at least we would have had some meaningful comparison ) the temperatures you achieved are simply not worth the trouble, those deltas could be achieved with large heatsink and fanless open case :). I like your style hence some advice, of course you tell me to take a hike ;). I started playing with with PC cooling 20 years ago where we soldered potentiometers to graphic cards and mother boards and were hunting dumps for old fridges for multi stage freezer coolers lol. I was inot TEC tech and built the first passive TEC cooler system ever to work. I wish I had 3D printing back then :). Anyways, good luck and I subscribed to see how are you doing
Can you print just the hub and glue a CD onto it to get a measurement of the fan motor's sound output under load but without moving air?
I advise the use of a Schlieren setup to better visualize the airflow.
You were soooo pulling bongs in the smoke test! 😂😜
0:00 I've never been here.
Nice only fans video
but it does have blades?
The bladeless may have lost in total cooling power, but it was quiet. It that way it was the best of them. I wonder what would happen if you turned down the RPM on the other fan designs so that they were all 42dB so we could compare total cooling power at the same noise level.
I made the mistake of trying to contact you via thingiverse. Not even sure why I try using that site anymore... Is there a place where you've centralized the leaderboard results? Trying to figure out the current rankings involves re-watching ALL the videos.
damn. you told a story with sean's fanless fan. you set it up. you let it ride and you brought it home. it was an emotional journey!
nice.. vape..
nice.. vape..
It’s amazing how you can make fan testing so fun.
i love your fan showdowns and it would be really cool if you made a tutorial on how to submit including designing and all that stuff :)
The fans must have an ODD number of blades. Then he will be quiet.
You should work on creating a cheap wind tunnel system around your fan motor module to calculate the actual Cubic Feet Per Minute (CFM) each fan displaces.
Once i heard the music i had to pause,comment,now im gone ✌🏽..........
Can I pump water trough the heat pipes from my air cooler think was a great hybrid cooling for gpu and cpu
and the winner is...Nikola Tesla... This is a perfect example of a tesla turbine principle of work applied in the reverse way...
I want to replace the blades in the extractor fan in my kitchen... the current fan is, well... WEAK! I go in the kitchen to vape and turn the fan on when doing so, but even blowing vape directly at the fan, it's not verry effective at drawing the vape out of the house, allowing a good 50% and sometimes more to simply float down the walls into the living room and subsequently has set of the smoke alrm on occasion. so I ask you/challenge you! -which fan design do you suppose would be the most effective at extracting my vape? and terrible cooking smoke of course :D
The Bladeless design priniple is also often used a asynchrones motors. The fan only works with the fanshroud.
If I may the smoke test can give a better show if you build a see through box with the fan built in the wall then use the smoke machine to fill the box and see how fast the fan get the smoke out .
So you review onlyfans?
Wanted to listen how the cool one would perform; *puts heavy dark metal as sound*
Make an only’fans 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Blade less has blades lol. And it sucks 😂
Do people send STLs in or STP files? People are so crap at setting the right tessellation level, you always see polygons in the 3d prints.
"i know funnest is a word because i just said it" not even a joke, this is actually how language works. Too many people think the dictionary can disprove the ability to use a word and have people know what you mean. If you can use it, it's a word, mirriam and webster can go suck an egg
I need to get myself a 3D printer.

This is a genius idea for a show - I love it
As an idea to measure how much air the fans propel, how strong they are, use scales and put them on top to see how much lighter the fan gets if you understand what i mean.
There are fans like this everywhere
the last video, possible s3e1 ? is 'private" ? :)
Very interesting experiments!! Pero creo que el ventilador sin aspas funcionaría mucho mejor si el diseño fuera en forma espiral con cierto grado de inclinación para absorber el aire hacia adentro con mucha fuerza y empujarlo a manera de torbellino. Grüße aus Deutschland!! 🍺😎👌👌👌
Can you measure the RPM of the trinity fan?
