Abstract

This study experimentally investigates the effect of fan configuration and air velocity on evaporation rates. Four different fan configurations were tested under controlled experimental conditions: central opposite blowing, one-sided blowing, top blowing, and strong fan blowing from the short side. The results indicate that opposite blowing significantly enhances evaporation, while one-sided blowing has limited effectiveness due to reduced air-water contact. Top blowing and the use of strong fans also notably increase evaporation rates. These findings provide valuable insights for optimizing water management practices and contribute to strategies aimed at reducing water losses.

Özet

Bu çalışma, fan konumlandırmasının ve hava hızının su buharlaşma hızları üzerindeki etkisini deneysel olarak incelemektedir. Kontrollü deneysel koşullarda yapılan çalışmada dört farklı fan konfigürasyonu test edilmiştir: merkezden karşılıklı üfleme, tek taraflı üfleme, üstten üfleme ve kısa kenardan güçlü fan üflemesidir. Sonuçlar, karşılıklı üflemenin buharlaşmayı önemli ölçüde artırdığını, tek taraflı üflemenin ise hava-su temasının azalması nedeniyle sınırlı etkili olduğunu göstermiştir. Üstten üfleme ve güçlü fan kullanımının ise belirgin bir şekilde buharlaşma hızlarını artırdığı görülmüştür. Bu bulgular, su yönetim uygulamalarını optimize etmek için değerli içgörüler sunmakta ve su kayıplarını azaltma stratejilerine katkıda bulunmaktadır.
