Numerical Simulation and Experiment Research of the Whole Flow Field inside a Multi-Blade Centrifugal Fan

摘要

The full flow field model of a widely used multi-blade centrifugal was built, using the CFD method, the steady and unsteady numerical simulation of the inner flow in the fan at different working conditions are presented. The numerical simulation results were validated by contrasting to the experiment results. The results displayed the characteristics of the velocity field, pressure field and pressure fluctuate in the centrifugal fan. The results can provide basis for optimizing the fan design and the internal flow, and have important value of engineering applications in the increase of the overall performance in operation.
