Summary

This article describes the development of a streamer used in air coolers. Contrary to other known accessories the streamer, which can be mounted on the guard grill of the fan, provides a higher air throw of the cooler without any disadvantages like increased power consumption or noise level. It was shown that the improvements are based upon an advanced velocity profile behind the fan by turning centrifugal velocity components into axial direction. LDV measurements are used to find the optimal design of the streamer blades with no relevant aerodynamic losses.
