The invention discloses a wind wheel and a centrifugal fan. The wind wheel comprises a front plate 1 and a rear plate 2, the front plate 1 and the rear plate 2 are parallel to each other, a pluralityof blades 3 are arranged between the front plate 1 and the rear plate 2, each blade 3 is vertical to the rear plate 2, each blade 3 is arranged as an arc type, and is arranged in a circular array of the central axis of the rear plate 2, the center of the rear plate 2 is an origin to establish a first rectangular coordinate system 4, the connection line between the end portion, far away from the central of the rear plate 2, of one blade 3 on the right side of the vertical axis positive direction and the origin of the first rectangular coordinate system 4 is a first line segment, the connectionline between the end portion, near the center of the rear plate 2, of one blade 3 on the right side of the vertical axis positive direction of the first rectangular coordinate system 4 is a second line segment, the end portions, far away from the center of the rear plate 2, of the blades 3 enclose an outer circle, an included angle between the extension line at the end, far away from the rear plate 2, of the blade 3 intersects the first line segment and a tangent line of the outer circle is an air outlet angle beta1, and the end portions, near the center of the rear plate 2, of the blades 3 enclose an inner circle. The invention provides the efficient and low noise wind wheel and the centrifugal fan.
