dc.description | This work, which is focused on improving the performance of specific products, was carried out in collaboration with the University of Huddersfield and Halifax Fan Limited, United Kingdom. A centrifugal fan with backward inclined blades that hold the industrial model named “Mistral” is investigated in this thesis. Furthermore, a special hub designed by the manufacturer for the high temperature fan applications is also explored in this work. The aim of the work is to characterize and improve the aerodynamic performance (i.e. increase the pressure and the efficiency of the fan) by altering the geometrical parameters of the impeller blade angle and shroud angle. Additionally, to achieve a lower temperature at the bearing region, it is important to improve the thermal performance of the hub. | |
dc.description.abstract | One of the most commonly used machines for industrial and ventilation purposes is the centrifugal fan as it can provide high static pressure rise and higher flow rates. However, the aerodynamic performance of large centrifugal fans can be significantly improved. Additionally, centrifugal fans are also used in high temperature applications where the heat transferred from the source can either damage or reduce the performance of the bearing unit and the electric motor. Thus, a special hub containing a cooling disc can be used to prevent the overheating of the bearings and the motor. The usage of a hub with superior thermal performance can also provide a longer useful life for the fan system. | |
