    Effect of the computational domain selection on the calculation of axial fan performance
    (International Symposium on Transport Phenomena and Dynamics of Rotating Machinery, ISROMAC 2016, 2019) İlikan, Ayhan Nazmi; Ayder, Erkan
    In this study, the aerodynamic performance of a jet fan (considered as a free-inlet free-outlet axial fan which does not contain any duct at the upstream or downstream) is obtained by using CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) method. The numerical calculations are performed by using the commercial software ANSYS CFX. Three different inlet and outlet computational domain shapes that are widely used for simulations of axial flow fans are evaluated. In the first method, the fan is modeled inside a circular pipe. The second approach does not contain the domain of a pipe at the inlet and the outlet but large inlet and outlet domains connected instead directly to the fan casing. The third method is similar to the second approach except a bellmouth located at the inlet of the fan that is not present in the second approach. The aerodynamic performance of the fan at atmospheric conditions is obtained by three approaches and the results are compared to each other and to the ones obtained experimentally. The results show that the simulation of a jetfan as if it works in a pipe brings an error of 45 % in flowrate which can be decreased to 25 % by placing a bellmouth at the intake of the fan casing.

    A refinement of asymptotic predictions and full numerical solution of helicopter rotor noise in the far field
    (Multi-Science Publ Co Ltd, 2012-09-01) Delale, Can Fuat; Zafer, Baha; Aslan, Alim Rüstem
    The asymptotic analysis of Parry and Crighton [1] for propeller noise in the far field, which is based on Hanson's formulation [2] of the FW-H equation, is refined to second order by Laplace's method [3] for evaluating integrals, accounting for second order contributions near the blade tip for loading and thickness noise. The full numerical solution of Hanson's integrals for both thickness and loading noise is also presented. In particular, the theory is applied to a four-bladed helicopter rotor with tip Mach numbers ranging between 0.5 and 0.7. The aerodynamic loading in this case is obtained using a 3D compressible code based on finite volume method with intensified grid density near the blade tip. The far field angular SPL noise distributions of a helicopter rotor in hover show that the present second order asymptotic formula is in better agreement with full numerical computations than that of the first order formula, especially for thickness noise.
