Well?

It’s a simple enough question.

I've been to Florida where it has been 5 to 10 degrees hotter than this, yet there you simply stay in the air conditioned buildings if it's too hot. Whereas here it's almost worse as our houses heat up like ovens with little respite.

Fans are cheap and widely available. I have a large fan for each room at home and they keep me nice and cool at a fraction of the cost and energy use of newfangled American air conditioning.

But I was told that fan motors give off heat and ultimately make the room warmer. dontpanic

I tried to explain how fans worked to my mother the other day.

I needed a lie down in a dark room with a towel over my head after that.

Work as in how they keep you cool, not how they spin.

I'm glad I've cleared that up.

Yes, but the fan is making you cooler in two ways:

1. heat from your blood warms the air next to your skin. The fan blows that air away and replaces it with cooler air, so the process can continue. There's a constant transfer of heat heat from you to the air.

2. sweat on your skin evaporates. The energy required to evaporate it is drawn from the surroundings, ie your skin and blood, making them cooler. The fan blows the evaporated sweat away and brings drier air into contact with your skin, so the process can continue.
