Zhukovskii Central Aerodynamic Institute (TsAGI) in the fields of aerodynamic axial fans, experimental techniques, and mathematical support for modeling the surfaces of complex shapes and automated design made it possible to build a set of pro- grams which contain a system to automate the design of an axial fan. The system makes it possible to automate the basic stages of design and construction, from choosing of the design parameters to obtaining the technical documentation, the program to build the blades on digi- tally controlled machinery, and the production equipment. The aerodynamic calculations of the fan are done in three basic system blocks (Fig. i). The initial data for the aerodynamic calculation are the pressure PV, the capacity Q, the rotation frequency n, the rotor diameter D, and the loss coefficient ~ in the elements con- necting the fan with the power source. It is also possible to specify the working point parameters in dimensionless form - the pressure and capacity coefficients ~ and ~. This form is convenient for including higher-level system elements in the program set to TI - Automated design system for an axial fan JF - Chemical and Petroleum Engineering DO - 10.1007/BF01147761 DA - 2005-01-28 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/springer-journals/automated-design-system-for-an-axial-fan-usZ2UYDFLf SP - 159 EP - 161 VL - 28 IS - 3 DP - DeepDyve ER -
