Abstract
A three-dimensional aerodynamic design method for half-ducted propeller fan has been presented. The half-ducted propeller fan has internal and external flow feature. It is important to take into account non-uniform meridional flow distributions around it. The present design method consists of two parts: a three-dimensional inverse design of fan rotor blade and an axisymmetric viscous flow calculation on the meridional plane. Continuing the process between the blade design using the three-dimensional inverse design method and the evaluation of the viscous flow fields around the rotor using the axisymmetric viscous flow calculation, the blade shape matching the flow fields around the rotor is converged. It is found that the present design method is useful to the half-ducted propeller fan design tool.
