[0002] ‌The circulating cooling unit is an industrial heat dissipation device, which reduces the equipment operating temperature through forced air circulation, and the power source is generally an axial flow fan. The axial flow fan is a fan in which the airflow is parallel to the shaft of the fan. It is usually used in places where the flow requirement is high and the pressure requirement is low. When the impeller rotates, the gas enters the impeller axially from the inlet, is pushed by the blades on the impeller to increase the energy, and then flows into the guide vane. The guide vane changes the direction of the deflected airflow to axial flow, and at the same time guides the gas into the diffuser pipe to further convert the kinetic energy of the gas into pressure energy, and finally introduces it into the working pipeline. Axial flow fans are widely used in metallurgy, chemical industry, light industry, food, pharmaceutical equipment, mechanical equipment and civil buildings for ventilation and heat dissipation.

[0003] However, with the improvement of performance parameters such as air volume and air pressure, the size and weight of the existing axial flow fan will also increase accordingly, so its adaptability to related scenes, especially special scenes such as nuclear power, is relatively lacking under many working conditions.

[0035] Regarding the number of blades of the primary impeller 2, the number of blades of the final-stage impeller 3 and the number of space guide vanes 8, a configuration data is given in this embodiment, that is, the number of blades of the primary impeller 2 is 10, the number of blades of the final-stage impeller 3 is 7, and the number of space guide vanes 8 is 11, which is a relatively reasonable configuration; in actual application, the number of blades of the primary impeller 2 needs to be greater than the number of blades of the final-stage impeller 3, so that the primary impeller 2 can push and squeeze the airflow as much as possible to increase the pressure, and the space guide vanes 8 with a number of blades prime to that of the primary impeller 2 can reduce the strength of dynamic and static interference and better rectify the airflow, and finally the final-stage impeller 3 with a number of blades prime to that of the space guide vanes 8 can guide the airflow out to reduce vibration and noise.

[0036] In this embodiment, the rectifying cylinder 7, the space guide vanes 8 and the fan shell 1 are integrally welded to better realize the arrangement of the airflow between the primary impeller 2 and the final-stage impeller 3; on this basis, the air-permeable holes provided on the rectifying cylinder 7 enable part of the airflow to carry away the heat generated by the motor, thereby achieving a partial heat dissipation effect of the motor; in the specific implementation process, the air-permeable holes have a length of 200 mm with an allowable deviation of ±10%, a width of 50 mm with an allowable deviation of ±5%, and a semicircular arc at both ends, that is, a waist-shaped hole.

[0042] Embodiment 4

[0043] In the embodiment 2, the included angle between the outer edge front end and the outer edge rear end of the blade of the primary impeller 2 and the central axis of the primary impeller 2 and the final-stage impeller 3 is α, the included angle between the outer edge front end and the outer edge rear end of the blade of the final-stage impeller 3 and the central axis of the primary impeller 2 and the final-stage impeller 3 is β, and α>β; the length of the blade of the primary impeller 2 and the final-stage impeller 3 from the front end to the rear end along the fan axis is equal and is arranged towards the air inlet end.

[0044] In the specific implementation process, α satisfies 20°<α<30°, β satisfies 10°<β<20°, more preferably, α satisfies 24.5°<α<27.5°, and β satisfies 17.0°<β<19.5°;

[0053] In this embodiment, the outer layer of sound-absorbing louvers 11 and the inner layer of sound-absorbing louvers 12 are both outwardly opened towards the side away from the mounting base 6. Generally, the inclination angle of the outer layer of sound-absorbing louvers 11 is 70°-75° relative to the horizontal plane, and the inclination angle of the inner layer of sound-absorbing louvers 12 is 50°-55°. The angle difference between the outer layer of sound-absorbing louvers 11 and the inner layer of sound-absorbing louvers 12 can affect the flow rate of the gas flowing through the louver surface, and thus by adjusting the angle difference, the sound absorption efficiency of the outer layer of sound-absorbing louvers 11 and the inner layer of sound-absorbing louvers 12 in the composite sound-absorbing assembly can be improved.
