| Abstract | This paper presents a methodology for the aerodynamic design of reversible axial-flow rotors of jet fans, usually used for ventilation of road tunnels. Due to the low hub-to-tip ratio, typical of this kind of rotors, a particular type of non-free vortex is adopted to solve the radial equilibrium equation, in order to reduce the twist in the blades when compared to the free-vortex case. Values of the deviation and incidence angles, lift and profile drag coefficients, were interpolated from the literature data, for elliptical profiles with maximum aspect ratio of 8%. In order to reliably use these data in the computational routine, written in FORTRAN, for obtaining the main geometric and operational characteristics, a technique of scattered data interpolation was utilized. Radial basis functions (RBF) of type thin plate spline (TPS) were thus used for this purpose. This function showed to be efficient for the iterative procedure in the aerodynamic design of the rotor blades. Two reversible axial-flow rotors, formed by elliptical profiles, were finally obtained with the proposed methodology. The first profile resulted from the free-vortex condition and the second one from the non-free vortex condition. Both rotors have the same dimensions and the same number of blades, but differ in the stagger angle of each profile forming the blades. Through the use of the commercial code FLUENT, the main aerodynamic performance characteristics of these two rotors were determined, for a specific rotation, within a wide range of operation conditions. The non-free vortex rotor showed a higher maximum efficiency when compared to the free-vortex one, which was located in the region of stability of the rotor. On the contrary, the free-vortex rotor maximum efficiency was located in the region of instability of the rotor. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
