Abstract
Fans are playing a major role around the globe for effective and pocket friendly cooling, especially in the region of Asia where humidity is high. Thermal comfort being one of the most important factors for improvement in working environment for better quality of work. Moving of air around the body helps sweat evaporation and makes body feel comfortable. Mixing of air from top to bottom of the area so as to neutralize the change in temperature is done by fans effectively than any other means. Destratification of air is the biggest problem faced in any enclosed area which can be rectified by using fans. CFD Analysis is performed on the designed ceiling fan to analyze the airflow around the area of interest
