This paper introduces the design method of the centrifugal turbo fan and the process of developing the design program of it. The developed design program confirmed the applicability by experimental performance data. Here, we proposed new velocity coefficients and considered various losses such as impeller inlet loss, vane passage flow loss, casing pressure loss, recirculation loss power, and disk friction loss power. Especially, the inlet and outlet widths of the impeller were newly determined by reflecting the experimental results. As a result, this fan design program shows a good performance result regardless of the types of impeller and is expected to be a very useful design tool.
