Measurement and Prediction of Aerodynamic Noise from Sirocco Fans

시로코 홴 성능 및 공력 소음 예측에 관한 연구

The prediction method of the performance and aerodynamic noise from a sirocco fan was developed and compared with measured data. To predict the performance of the sirocco fan, the well-known slip coefficients and various loss models were tested and applied to forward curved sirocco impellers. Using loss models proposed for both impeller and casing, the predicted performance characteristics were in good agreement with measured ones by an ANSI test plenum. Various scaling models for aerodynamic noise from the sirocco fan were evaluated and tested against measured power levels in terms of flow coefficient. It was shown that the turbulent broadband sound power from the sirocco fan can be modeled successfully by trailing edge noise.
