Abstract
A modular fan assembly includes a center hub assembly and a first blade attached to the center hub assembly. The center hub assembly includes a first plate having an outer edge, and a second plate having an outer edge. The first blade has a mounting pad and a working portion. The mounting pad is positioned in between the first plate and the second plate. The working portion extends beyond the outer edges of the first and second plates of the center hub assembly. A thickness of the first blade is smaller proximate the outer edge of the first plate than at the mounting pad to create a first gap between the first blade and the first plate at the outer edge of the first plate.
