Abstract

A automobile front-end cooling fan are designed and tested in the present study. The design technique is developed using the one-dimensional inviscid flow through the fan blade, the empirical equations, and the performance prediction models. Numerical calculations of the three-dimensional turbulent flow around the designed cooling fan are carried out. Flow characteristics and pressure distributions on the pressure and suction side of the fan are investigated. Performance test results of the total pressure and flow rate are presented.
