Analysis on Performance and Noise Characteristics of the Design Parameters of a Cross-Flow Fan and its Optimization
횡류홴 설계 인자들의 성능/소음 특성 해석 및 최적화
Abstract
The performance and noise characteristics of the design parameters of a cross-flow fan are investigated by computational methods. The incompressible Wavier-Stokes equations in moving coordinates are time-accurately solved for obtaining the pressure fluctuations due to the aerodynamic interactions between the impeller blades and the stabilizer, and sound pressure is then computed by the Ffowcs Williams-Hawkings equation. Design parameters of the cross-flow fan include blade setting angle, exit-diffusion angle, and stabilizer installation angle. Also, an optimization of the aforementioned design parameters has been peformed using the Taguchi method.
