FAN CONTROL APPARATUS AND FAN CONTROL METHOD
FIG1 is a diagram illustrating an example of the configuration of a fan control apparatus according to a first embodiment of the present disclosure
FIG1 illustrates an example of the configuration of a fan control apparatus according to the embodiment. As illustrated in FIG1, a fan control apparatus X according to the embodiment controls an RF fan 3 placed (at the boundary) between, for example, a first room such as a room A and a second room adjacent to the first room, such as a room B. The RF fan 3 can switch the direction of airflow between the room A side (AR1) and the room B side (AR2). Pressure sensors A5 and B7 are placed in the rooms A and B, respectively. A measured pressure value acquired by each pressure sensor is inputted into a controller 1. Moreover, an RF fan control signal SG1 and an RF fan rotation signal SG2 are exchanged between the controller 1 and the RF fan 3. In this example, the pressure sensor A5 measures the atmospheric pressure in the room A. The pressure sensor B7 measures the atmospheric pressure in the room B. The RF fan 3 is controlled automatically in such a manner that the atmospheric pressures in the two rooms are the same. FIG1 illustrates the example where the pressure sensors perform sensing. However, it is also possible for the automatic control to adjust the temperatures with temperature sensors. Furthermore, it is also possible to adjust the humidities with humidity sensors.
