Abstract

A study for increase of fan flow rate by geometric modification has been conducted to decrease temperature rise of marine generator inner part. Through experiment of a real product, a performance curve for various flow resistances was obtained. Flow analyses for each cases were done by using commercial code-FLUENT and the results were very similar to experimental data (0.7% deviation at normal operating condition). Through flow analysis results for various design geometric modification, a scroll type fan was adopted as a best design geometry with 100Pa more pressure and 22% more flow rate than original fan.
