        A solid-state fan is a device used to produce an airflow with no moving parts
. Such a device may use the principle of electro-aerodynamic pumping, which is based on corona discharge
.
It has advantages over mechanical fans such as that it is noiseless and more reliable.
Moving parts
The moving parts of a machine are those parts of it that move.  Machines comprise both moving  and fixed parts.  The moving parts have controlled and constrained motions....
