    if this is for part cooling you'll find way more designs using 5015 blowers than 4020.

      I have enough space for two 5015 so I can use a 4020 as the "biggest"... is there a great difference in term of efficency between them?

        Which 4010? Which 4020? Which 5015?

        As far as I know, Noctua do not make any radial fans - only axial.

          I have never talked about Noctua.. in my opinion they are totally unuseful for part cooling...

            @thedragonlord my general finding is that bigger means more air flow which is what you want for part cooling.
            However, there are also massive differences between different makes of fans for the same size. I had a 4010 radial fan on my delta that I got cheap from ebay which barely did anything. I then bought one of the GDSTime 4010 radial ones, similar to what E3D use on the hemera tool, which is pretty decent. Ideally I'd still like more cooling though in some cases...

              Fourth post in the thread does, though.

              I'd still be interested in seeing what 4010 / 4020 / 5015, 24V, centrifugal blowers you are considering - 24V centrifugal fans seem to be relatively rare beasts, so a source of a good one would be useful to know.

                  Doesn't Hemera use a radial 4020 for part cooling? Like this https://www.amazon.it/gp/product/B07HRH15R1/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

                    @thedragonlord nope, it's a 4010 radial:

                    Admittedly they dont make that very clear on the product pages...
