The centrifugal fan rotor group is the core rotating component of a
centrifugal fan for gas transportation and energy conversion. It
converts mechanical energy into the kinetic and pressure energy of
gas through high - speed rotation. Its performance directly
determines the efficiency, stability, and service life of the fan.
The following is a detailed analysis from multiple dimensions:
- Core components and material characteristics
- Impeller: As the core working part, the shape and layout of its
blades directly affect the aerodynamic performance. Forward -
curved blades are suitable for low - pressure and large - flow
conditions. Backward - curved blades are known for high efficiency
and energy - saving. Radial blades have a simple structure and
strong wear resistance, and are often used in dusty environments.
The impeller materials vary significantly according to application
scenarios. Common carbon steel (such as Q235) has a low cost and is
suitable for normal - temperature clean air. Stainless steel (such
as 304, 316) is corrosion - resistant and is often used in the
chemical and food industries. High - temperature alloys (such as
nickel - based alloys) can withstand temperatures above 800°C,
meeting the requirements of industrial furnaces and boiler induced
- draft fans. Fiberglass impellers are preferred in the waste gas
treatment field due to their light weight and acid - alkali
resistance.
- Main shaft: As a key shaft part for transmitting torque, it is
usually forged from 45# high - quality carbon steel or 40Cr alloy
steel. After quenching and tempering treatment, its comprehensive
mechanical properties are improved. The surface can also be chrome
- plated or nitrided to enhance wear resistance and fatigue
strength. The accuracy requirements of the main shaft are extremely
high. The errors of cylindricity and coaxiality need to be
controlled at the micron level to avoid vibration during operation.
- Hub: It is a hub part connecting the blades and the main shaft.
It is generally made of cast steel or ductile iron. It is fixed to
the blades through precisely machined bolt holes and needs to have
good structural rigidity and dynamic balance performance to prevent
deformation during high - speed rotation.
- Classification and application scenarios
- Classified by structural form: It can be divided into open, semi
- open, and closed rotor groups. The open rotor group consists only
of blades and a hub and is suitable for working conditions with a
large dust content, such as mine ventilation. The semi - open rotor
group has a wheel disc on one side, with both certain efficiency
and wear - resistance, and is often used in industrial dust
removal. The closed rotor group consists of blades, a front disc,
and a rear disc, with the highest efficiency, and is widely used in
clean gas transportation scenarios such as air - conditioning
systems and industrial air supply.
- Classified by application field: In the industrial field, high -
temperature rotor groups are used in boiler induced - draft fans in
the metallurgy and power industries and need to withstand the
scouring of high - temperature flue gas. Explosion - proof rotor
groups use special explosion - proof materials and structural
designs and are suitable for flammable and explosive environments
such as petrochemical and coal mine gas emissions. In the civil
field, low - noise rotor groups meet the silent requirements of
commercial building ventilation and household air purification
through optimized blade curves and dynamic balance processes.
- Technical parameters and maintenance points
- The performance parameters of the rotor group include rated
speed, critical speed, dynamic balance grade, etc. High - speed
rotor groups (such as high - speed turbo fans) have strict
requirements for bearing accuracy and lubrication systems. The
dynamic balance grade directly affects the operation stability and
usually needs to reach above G2.5 to ensure that the vibration
value is controlled within a safe range.
- In terms of maintenance, it is necessary to regularly check the
wear of the impeller, the run - out of the main shaft, and the
tightening of the hub bolts. For dusty working conditions, anti -
wear treatment (such as surfacing a wear - resistant layer) is also
required for the impeller, and parameters such as vibration and
temperature need to be monitored in real - time through an online
monitoring system to prevent equipment failures caused by rotor
imbalance.
Through precise structural design, diverse material selection, and
targeted technical optimization, the centrifugal fan rotor group
undertakes an indispensable gas power transmission task in
industrial production, environmental governance, and people's
livelihood security fields."
