Research on the Numerical Simulation of Internal Flow Field and Energy Efficiency of Ventilator

Article Preview

Abstract:

In the present study, the effects of ventilator geometries on the its performance were numerically simulated using the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) program. For a certain type ventilator, three-dimensional inner flow field was derived firstly, such as local flow field at the meridional and rotary plane of ventilator, the gap flow between the impeller and air outlet, and the secondary flows in impeller channel were studied in detail, and some suggestions are given to improve the profile of velocity. The above results would be helpful to the optimization and modification of ventilator.
