Abstract

Optimization design of an impeller is critical for the energy performance of a fan. This paper takes the promotion of fan efficiency and pressure rise as the optimization objectives to carry out multiparameter and multiobjective optimization research. Firstly, an experimental test bench is built to measure the energy performance of the original fan and verify the accuracy of the numerical method. Then, the hub outlet angle of impeller β 1 , the impeller outlet angle increment Δβ 1 , the wrap angle φ , the hub outlet angle of diffuser β 2 , and the diffuser outlet angle increment Δβ 2 are set as the optimal parameters to conduct orthogonal optimal design. The results show that the efficiency of the optimal fan increases by 11.71%, and the pressure rise increases by 50.15%. The pressure and velocity distributions in an optimal fan are uniform, the internal flow separation is weakened, and the influence of tip leakage flow is reduced, which makes for the improvement of energy performance for the fan.
