SOUND SPECTRUM MEASUREMENTS IN DUCTED AXIAL FAN UNDER STABLE CONDITION AT FREQUENCY RANGE 6000 TO 6600 HZ

Performance of axial fan is found to reduce drastically when instability is encountered during its operation. Performance of an axial fan is severely impaired by many factors mostly related to system instabilities due to rotating stall and surge phenomenon experienced during its operation. The present work involves measuring the sound spectrum measurements in ducted axial fan under stable condition at frequency range from 6000 to 6600 Hz. Objective of the experiment is to measure the frequency domain signal and study the sound Characteristics in ducted axial fan by using spectrum analyser. Different types of FFT signals have been measured under stable condition for the frequency range of 6000 Hz to 6600 Hz with respect to rotor speed and different graphs are plotted for ducted axial fan

Comparative Analysis of Velocity Measurements In Ducted Axial Fan

The paper deals with experimental investigation and comparative analysis of velocity measurements in ducted axial fan. Experiments were carried out to investigate the nature of velocity variations in a ducted axial fan at different throttle positions as a function of rotor speed employing both Pitot tube and Hot Wire Anemometer. Quantitative analyses of the magnitudes of velocity measured by a pitot tube as well as a hot wire anemometer are examined and various graphs have been plotted. The percentage errors of velocity level have been determined
