Test Setup / 测试配置
| Parameter / 参数 | Value / 数值 | 3D Printer / 打印机 | Creality Ender-3 (modified with direct drive) | Hotend / 热端 | Creality Spider high-temperature hotend | Nozzle temperature / 喷嘴温度 | 220°C (PLA) / 240°C (PETG) | Bed temperature / 热床温度 | 60°C (PLA) / 80°C (PETG) | Print speed / 打印速度 | 60mm/s (normal) / 120mm/s (high speed test) | Ambient temperature / 环境温度 | 24°C ± 1°C | Fan tested / 测试风扇 | Stock Creality fan (4010) vs FH2510 (25x25x10mm) |
|---|
Test 1: Hotend Throat Cooling Performance / 喉管散热性能测试
Test method: Printer operated at 240°C for 4 hours. Hotend heatsink temperature measured with thermal probe. Clogging incidents recorded.
测试方法：打印机在240°C下连续运行4小时，用热探头测量热端散热片温度，记录堵头次数。
| Parameter / 参数 | Stock Fan (4010 Sleeve) | FH2510 (25x25x10mm Ball) | Heatsink temp after 1hr / 1小时散热片温度 | 52°C | 42°C (-10°C) | Heatsink temp after 2hr / 2小时散热片温度 | 58°C | 44°C (-14°C) | Heatsink temp after 4hr / 4小时散热片温度 | 63°C | 46°C (-17°C) | Clogging incidents / 堵头次数 | 2 times | 0 times |
|---|
Conclusion / 结论： FH2510 reduced hotend heatsink temperature by up to 17°C compared to stock fan, effectively eliminating clogging during extended high-temperature printing.
Test 2: Part Cooling Efficiency / 模型冷却效率测试
Test method: 3D printed overhang test model (45°, 55°, 65°, 75° overhangs) with 100% fan speed. Surface quality assessed visually.
测试方法：打印悬垂测试模型（45°、55°、65°、75°悬垂），风扇100%转速，目测表面质量。
| Overhang Angle | Stock Fan Result | FH2510 Result | 45° | Clean | Clean | 55°
为什么Minor sagging / 轻微下垂 | Clean | 65°
|
75°
|
|---|
Conclusion / 结论： FH2510 enabled clean printing up to 65° overhangs, improving overhang performance by approximately one angle grade. 3D printing communities have confirmed that high-static-pressure blowers can improve overhang performance by 5-10°.
Test 3: Noise Level Comparison / 噪音对比测试
Test method: Noise measured at 50cm distance from printer using decibel meter. Measurements taken at 50% and 100% fan speeds.
测试方法：在距离打印机50cm处用分贝仪测量噪音，分别在50%和100%风扇转速下记录。
| Fan Speed | Stock Fan (dBA) | FH2510 (dBA) | 50% speed / 50%转速 | 38 dBA | 34 dBA (-4 dBA) | 100% speed / 100%转速 | 48 dBA | 42 dBA (-6 dBA) |
|---|
Conclusion / 结论： FH2510 is 4-6 dBA quieter than the stock fan across all speed ranges, providing a noticeable improvement for home/office printing environments.
Test 4: Power Consumption & Airflow / 功耗与风量测试
| Parameter / 参数 | Stock Fan | FH2510 | Rated voltage / 额定电压 | 24V DC | 12V/24V DC | Rated current / 额定电流 | 0.10A | 0.15A (12V) / 0.08A (24V) | Power consumption / 功耗 | 2.4W | 1.8W (12V) / 1.9W (24V) (-21% to -25%) | Max airflow / 最大风量 | 4.5 CFM | 5.2 CFM (+15%) | Max static pressure / 最大静压 | 3.2 mmH₂O | 5.8 mmH₂O (+81%) |
|---|
Conclusion / 结论： FH2510 consumes 21-25% less power while delivering 15% more airflow and 81% higher static pressure, making it significantly more efficient.
