今人皆曰风扇乃现代发明,然细究我国科技发展史,此话约摸也只对了一半。因为说到风扇,今唯指电风扇,而电的发现和利用不过百来年的历史,这样算来,当然电风扇的历史就更短了。本文要揭示的是,风扇在中国古已有之,且有长期的应用,只不过不是用电力驱动而已。 Today, all are saying that the fan is a modern invention, however, a careful study of the history of the development of science and technology in China, this remark about only half of touch. Because when it comes to the fan, this refers only to the fan, and the discovery and utilization of electricity, but a hundred years of history, so that, of course, the history of the fan is even shorter. What this article reveals is that fans are ancient in China and have long-term applications, but they are not driven by electricity.
