[0011] Furthermore, three Q-shaped boost air ducts are provided, and the airflows of the three Q-shaped boost air ducts converge with the airflow of the Q-shaped main push air duct at one point.

[0012] Furthermore, the inner diameter of the Q-shaped main push air duct is larger than that of the Q-shaped boost air duct. Jet pipes are provided on both the Q-shaped main push air duct and the three Q-shaped boost air ducts. The jet pipes are located between the medium-speed fan and the high-speed fan.
