Optimization Design and Experimental Study of Low-Pressure Axial Fan with Forward-Skewed Blades

This paper presents an experimental study of the optimization of blade skew in low pressure axial fan. Using back propagation (BP) neural network and genetic algorithm (GA), the optimization was performed for a radial blade. An optimized blade is obtained through blade forward skew. Measurement...
