Study on Noise Generation in a High Speed Centrifugal Fan

Article Preview

Abstract:

This study presents the investigation of aerodynamics and aeroacoustics of centrifugal fan using commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code. The unsteady turbulent flow of the fan is simulated with Detached Eddy Simulation (DES) and the acoustics sources are computed based on the pressure fluctuations. The Ffowcs Williams and Hawking model is used to predict the tonal noises in aeroacoustics simulation.
