Manufacturer: Osaka Blower
Product Type: Forced Draft Fan for Boilers

A blower for operating steam turbine engines

• The Forced Draft Fan is a blower that supplies combustion air to the boiler of a steam turbine engine.
• In a steam turbine engine, the boiler burns combustion air and boiler off-gas to generate steam, which drives the turbine. The generated power is then transmitted to the propeller to propel the ship.
• If the Forced Draft Fan fails, the turbine, which is the power source of the ship, cannot operate. Therefore, high reliability of the Forced Draft Fan is essential to support the ship’s operation.
• Since operating a large ship requires immense power, the Forced Draft Fan must be a large-capacity blower that supplies a massive airflow to the boiler. To meet these demands, we have built an advanced in-house testing facility and manufacturing system.
• As the only domestic supplier of Forced Draft Fans, we support the operation of ships worldwide. Additionally, to ensure safe operation for our customers, we dispatch supervisors globally to provide technical support.
