Parametric Optimization Design of Double-Circular Arc Blade Used in Multi-Blade Centrifugal Fan and Its Aerodynamic Analysis
In order to improve the aerodynamic performance and noise characteristics of multi-blade centrifugal fan
combining with the characteristics of high degree of freedom in the design of inter-blade flow channel of double-arc blade and based on a single-arc blade multi-blade centrifugal fan with better performance
a full parameter matching optimization design of double-arc blade is carried out through the combination of CFD and experiments. Taking the air volume of the fan under 0 Pa static pressure condition as the optimization goal
the Box-Behn
ken response surface experimental design method is used to determine the inlet angle
outlet angle
inner to outer diameter ratio
arch point diameter and central angle for parameter design
and 46 sets of sample spaces are obtained. Through the quadratic regression fitting of the design parameters and the sample results
the functional relationship between the parameters of the double-arc blade and the air volume
as well as the optimal parameter combination
is obtained. The results show that the inlet angle and outlet angle have the highest sensitivity to the air volume in all main effects
while the inlet angle
the outlet angle
the inner diameter to outer diameter ratio and the central angle have the highest sensitivity to air volume in all interaction effects. The CFD and FW-H methods are used to calculate the aerodynamic performance and sound field characteristics of the optimized double-arc blade fan and the prototype fan. The results show that the air volume of the optimized fan increases by 118 m

compared to the prototype fan
with a relative increases of 9.7%. The optimized blade can effectively suppress the generation and development of vortex flow in the inter-blade flow channel. The inlet angle and outlet angle of the blade are more consistent with the inlet and outlet flow angles of the airflow
which effectively reduces the pressure pulsation caused by the impact of the blade leading edge and the unsteady interaction of wake flow and volute. The test results show that the power of the fan under the same air volume is reduced by 4.7% compared with the prototype
