User account low karma. What is the difference between fan flow rate and airflow?
I have been checking specs for several floor fans, and some of them list two figures for the amount of air they move. This came from a manual for a 16" floor fan I found:

What is the difference between these figures?
I tried googling it and I only got a straight answer from Gemini which seems wrong. The actual results talk about other fan parameters, but not the fan flow rate.
Gemini says the fan flow rate would be unobstructed, while airflow would consider some static pressure. This seems wrong since the airflow figures are always higher than the fan flow rate ones.
