Broadband Noise Reduction of a Two-Stage Fan with Wavy Trailing-Edge Blades

open access: yesAerospace
In this paper, a numerical investigation is performed to study the broadband noise of a fan stage with wavy trailing-edge blades. A study of the wavelength and ratio of amplitude to wavelength (H/L) is conducted to better understand the noise reduction ...

A compact inflow control device for simulating flight fan noise [PDF]

open access: yes
Inflow control device (ICD's) of various shapes and sizes have been used to simulate inflight fan tone noise during ground static tests. A small, simple inexpensive ICD design was optimized from previous design and fabrication techniques.

Electronics Cooling Fan Noise Prediction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Using the finite volume CFD software FLUENT, one fan was studied at a given flow rate (1.5m3/min) for three different operational rotating speeds : 2,000, 2,350 and 2,700 rpm. The turbulent air flow analysis predicts the acoustic behavior of the fan. The

Analysis of aerodynamic and aeroacoustic performances of axial flow fans with variable winglet curvature in chordwise direction

open access: yesResults in Engineering
This study introduces a novel concept for axial-flow fans with winglets featuring gradually decreasing curvature along the chordwise direction. The objective is to mitigate the formation of leakage vortices in the gap flow region between the fan blade ...

Development of low-noise and large-air flow rate bionic serrated blades for multi-blade centrifugal fans in heat pump dryers

open access: yesCase Studies in Thermal Engineering
A heat pump dryer usually adopts a centrifugal fan with multi-blades for generating large flow rate of air, but faces the problem of high aerodynamic noise. The application of bionic serrated blades instead of straight-edged blades in fans is a promising

Acoustic performance of two 1.83-meter-diameter fans designed for a wind-tunnel drive system [PDF]

open access: yes
A parametric study was made of the noise generated by two 1.83-m (6-ft) diameter fans operating up to a maximum pressure ratio of 1.03. One fan had 15 rotor blades, 23 stator blades, and a maximum rotational speed of 1200 rpm.
