Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to a kind of outer rotor motor with low-noise airfoil-shaped radiating blade. BACKGROUND
[0002] The outer rotor motor is often used as driving component for axial flow and centrifugal fan, which is widely used for equipment heat dissipation and building ventilation. The sensitivity to noise in such application is very high. The aerodynamic noise generated by motor cooling fan is the main source of motor noise. Therefore, controlling or reducing the noise value of motor cooling fan is an important noise reduction method. In addition to copper loss and iron loss of motor itself, the mechanical loss of cooling fan cannot be ignored. Therefore, reducing the loss of cooling fan is also an effective method to improve the efficiency of motor.
[0003] The current motor radiating blade is mainly designed with equal-thickness circular-arc blade. The blade surface pressure is not uniform without adopting streamline design, which cannot avoid local high pressure and low pressure area, resulting in increased turbulence on blade surface and increased noise. The equal-thickness circular-arc blade design will generate impact and flow separation loss at blade leading edge and trailing edge, which will enhance the flow separation phenomenon on blade surface, resulting in turbulence and vortex generation and increased energy loss.

The chord length of the airfoil-shaped blade is taken as b, and the following equation is obtained.
[0008] The projection curve of the blade pressure surface satisfies the equation Y=B1X 4 + B2X 3 + B3X2 + B4X 1 Wherein, B1=7.529*10 -1 + 0.06, B2=-2.232*10 -2 + 0.03, B3=2.606*10 -4 + 4.44*10 -5 , B4=-1.144*10 -6 + 2.25*10 -5 ;
[0009] The blade inlet angle M of the airfoil blade is between 30-40°, the blade outlet angle N of the airfoil blade is between 25-35°, the end of the blade leading edge and the end of the blade trailing edge are all treated with a circular arc, the radius R1 of the blade leading edge is 1.15%*b, and the radius R2 of the blade trailing edge is 0.76%*b.
[0010] Further, the number of the airfoil blades is 9-15.
