[0034] The present invention provides an impeller and a centrifugal fan with multi-element coupled bionic blades:

[0035] (1) Due to the presence of a high-pressure impact area at the leading edge of the blade, based on the principle of bionic flow control technology, the leading edge of the long blade adopts a streamlined structural feature that imitates the outer edge of a shark's tail fin, which reduces the impact loss of the blade inlet airflow, the pressure pulsation on the blade surface, and the airflow turbulence, thereby reducing aerodynamic noise. At the same time, the trailing edge of the blade adopts the typical arc-tooth structure feature of the leading edge of the feathers of a peregrine falcon's wing, which can effectively reduce the periodic shedding of the blade tail vortex, thereby minimizing the velocity gradient on the wall, reducing the airflow resistance and the formation of vortexes, improving the performance and efficiency of the fan, and reducing noise. Further, by combining long and short blades, the length, circumferential position arrangement, and installation angle of the long and short blades are designed to improve the problems of impeller inlet blockage and the suppression of separation and backflow inside the impeller flow channel. The blade channel expansion angle is reduced to reduce separation loss and reduce the slip coefficient, thereby improving the fan flow, total pressure, and fan efficiency.

[0036] (2) By designing the aerodynamic profile of the collector (taper angle, arc radius, profile transition continuity, etc.), flow losses are reduced and the uniformity of the inlet airflow is improved. In addition, the collector can accurately match the impeller structure of the multi-coupled bionic blade, further reducing vortex and flow separation, and reducing the impact loss and noise of the airflow on the impeller inlet;

[0037] (3) The arc transition structure of the logarithmic spiral volute profile ensures smooth and efficient airflow in the volute, reduces the impact of the airflow and energy loss, and thus improves the efficiency of the fan; by optimizing the air outlet and the volute tongue section of the volute to match the outlet airflow angle of the bionic blade, the impact loss and separation of the airflow are reduced, the fan's efficient operating range is widened, the total pressure and fan efficiency are improved, and the fan noise is further reduced.

For example, they can be fixedly connected, detachably connected, or integrally connected; they can be directly connected or connected through one or more intermediate media. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to the specific circumstances. The directional words that appear in the present invention are to better illustrate the characteristics of the features and the relationship between the features. It should be understood that when the placement direction of the present invention changes, the characteristics of the features and the direction of the relationship between the features also change accordingly. Therefore, the directional words do not constitute an absolute limitation on the characteristics of the features and the relationship between the features in space, but only play a relative limitation role.
