An analysis is presented which treats the noise generation from an axial flow fan row by given forces including the effects of a moving medium. The linearization of Euler’s equations to yield tractable problems for fan noise is discussed. The three-dimensional problem is decomposed into several two-dimensional problems. Finally, full details are given of a two-dimensional analysis to predict the amounts of acoustic energy, at the blade passing frequency and its harmonics, radiated up and downstream of a blade row due to its interaction with a neighboring row.

This paper deals with an experimental investigation into the influence of a vaned recess casing treatment on the performance of an industrial-type axial-flow fan with a hub-tip ratio of 0.4. The treatment has been tested in a variety of configurations relative to the fan, with an emphasis on the amount of fan blade tip exposure to the treatment. Two sets of blading, one of which is of the fully reversible type, have been investigated. Detailed flow measurements have been carried out with a slanted hot wire probe to provide an insight into the operation of the device and into the nature of the rotating stall in the solid casing configuration. Strain gauges have been employed to enable blade stresses to be recorded and an in-duct microphone to enable comparative tests on fan noise has also been used.

This paper discusses the present methods of controlling tonal noise in axial flow fans and puts forward some basic parameters for use in the design and selection of this product. Descriptions are given of the effects of fan casing geometry, the interaction of fixed duct elements and fan rotating parts, the effect of inlet disturbance and changes in noise level with radial clearance. Finally, guidelines are given for users of axial How fans in order to minimise noise levels.
