  • Abstract
    This paper resumes the frictionless fan concept which was introduced at itherm 2012 [1]. This concept was based on a flexible polymer blade, the vibration of which is, as opposite to the piezoelectric driven fan principle, driven by means of a magnetic field. This type of fan can be of interest in regions where otherwise the fluid flow would be stagnant.
