Answer / vivek gulhare
As per American
Society of Mechanical Engineers
(ASME) the specific ratio - the
ratio of the discharge pressure
over the suction pressure – is
used for defining the fans,
blowers and compressors
Fans - Up to 1.11
Blowers- 1.11 to 1.20
Compressors - more than 1.20

Answer / shwan
fan is used for lower pressure and less than the blower
but yhe compressser used for high pressure.
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 42 Yes | 26 No |
Answer / harender saini
fans has a compression ratio upto 1.1
blowers have compression ratio from 1.11 to 1.20
compressors have compression ratio above 1.20

Answer / chaitanya pithawa
fan is just used for air moving.Its blade are axailly bladed.
fans usually move large volumes of air at low pressure.
blower is a centrifugal fan,blower is a machine for moving
volumes of a gas with moderate increase of pressure.

Answer / ayyam perumal
IF THE COMPRESSION RATIO IS 1: 1, THAT IS FOR FAN,
IF THE COMPRESSION RATIO FROM 1:1 TO 1: 4, THEN IT IS
BLOWER,
IF THE COMPRESSION RATION IS ABOVE 1:4, THAT UNIT IS CALLED
AS COMPRESSOR
