摘要：Blowers play an important role in air-conditioning, furnaces, low pressure cooling and dust or fumeextraction systems because they can achieve high pressures compared to fans. In this paper an industrial blower withthree different volute geometries is investigated by using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). And then two newvolute geometries are modelled and analyzed based on the air flow through the blower. The numerical investigationrevealed that blowers with modified volute geometries have better outlet velocities. For this work, impeller is modelledusing Solid Works and meshed in ICEM CFD. The post processing is carried out using CFD POST. CFD simulationsare performed using the commercial CFD software package FLUENT.
