Airflow guide stator vane for axial flow fan and shrouded axial flow fan assembly having such airflow guide stator vanes

摘要

An airflow guide stator vane for an axial flow fan and a shrouded axial flow fan assembly having such stator vanes are disclosed. The airflow guide stator vane has a leading edge line, a trailing edge line, and an airflow guide surface extending from the leading edge line to the trailing edge line. The stator vane is radially positioned in an axial flow fan and is curved so that its leading edge line is perpendicular to oblique velocity components of an airflow each of which is a sum vector of a rotation-directional velocity component and a radius-directional component of an air particle of the airflow. The axial flow fan assembly comprises an axial flow fan and a shroud. The axial flow fan consists of a circular central hub connected with a driving shaft of a motor and a plurality of blades radially arranged along the circumference of the hub. The shroud consists of a housing surrounding the peripheral ends of said axial flow fan and forming an airflow passage, a motor support being positioned at its center portion and holding a motor for driving said axial flow fan, and the above-described stator vanes.
