What additional function does a blower have compared to a fan?

A blower is designed to move air or gas with a higher pressure than a typical fan, and its primary function is to channel air to specific locations with a focused flow. This is often achieved through the design of the blower, which typically includes a narrower output compared to the broader and less directed airflow of a fan. This characteristic makes blowers excellent for applications where directional airflow is needed, such as in ventilation systems, drying processes, or in applications requiring specific air delivery to certain areas.

In contrast to a fan, which provides a more widespread and less intense airflow, blowers can effectively direct air to a specific spot, enhancing their utility in various industrial and mechanical applications. This capability allows blowers to serve more specialized functions compared to the generally broader service provided by fans.
