As shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 2 and FIG. 4, in one exemplary embodiment of the disclosure, a diffuser 10 is provided for an air supply device 20. The air supply device 20 may be used for, but not limited to, a vacuum cleaning equipment. As shown in FIG. 5, the diffuser 10 includes a base ring member 11 and several rows of stationary blades 114. Each row of stationary blades 114 is disposed in sequence on an outer ring wall 111 of the base ring member 11 along the axial direction of the base ring member 11, and the stationary blades are distributed along the circumferential direction of the base ring member 11. Opposite sides of the base ring member 11 along the axial direction are defined as an air-inlet side and an air-outlet side respectively, and the base ring member 11 has an outer ring wall 111 and an inner ring wall 112. The inner ring wall 112 is defined with a number of installation holes 113. A fixed connection of the base ring member 11 in the diffuser 10 can be realized by means of locking bolts passing through the installation holes 113 and a frame 221. From the air-inlet side to the air-outlet side, a chord length of each stationary blade 114 in one row is greater than or equal to the chord length of each stationary blade 114 in the next adjacent row. The stationary blades 114 have installation angles, and from the air-inlet side to the air-outlet side, an installation angle of each stationary blade 114 in one row is smaller than or equal to the installation angle of each stationary blade 114 in the next adjacent row.


Firstly, some terms involved in this exemplary embodiment are explained with reference to FIG. 3 as follows:


Forehead line: a line formed by connecting the corresponding points at the heads of the stationary blades 114 in the same row is called a forehead line (shown as L1 in FIG. 3);


Posterior forehead line: a line formed by connecting the corresponding points at the tails of the stationary blades 114 in the same row is called a posterior forehead line (shown as L2 in FIG. 3);


Inlet placement angle: an included angle formed by the tangent lines of the center-line and the forehead line at the head of the stationary blade (shown as a in FIG. 3);


Outlet placement angle: an included angle formed by the tangent lines of the center-line and the posterior forehead line at the tail of the stationary blade (shown as β in FIG. 3);


Installation angle: an included angle between the forehead line and the chord length of the stationary blade 114, which varies in accordance with the chord length (shown as β in FIG. 3);


Head of the stationary blade 114: along the axial direction of the base ring member 11, the front-most position of the stationary blade 114 is the head (shown as a in FIG. 3);


Tail of the stationary blade 114: along the axial direction of the base ring member 11, the last position of the stationary blade 114 is the tail (shown as b in FIG. 3);


Height of the stationary blade 114: a length of the stationary blade 114 in the radial direction of the base ring member 11;


blade tip: a position at the top where the stationary blade 114 increases to along the radial direction of the base ring member is the blade tip;


Chord length: a straight-line distance from the head to the tail of the stationary blade 114 along a center-line is the chord length (shown as L4 in FIG. 3);


Center-line: a curve formed by connecting the center points in the thickness direction of the stationary blade 114 from the head to the tail of the stationary blade 114 is called a center-line (shown as L3 in FIG. 3).


In the diffuser of this embodiment, multiple rows of stationary blades 114 are arranged in the diffuser along the axial direction of the base ring member, so that the airflow flowing through the diffuser can obtain a multi-stage diversion effect from each row of the stationary blades 114. In this way, the multi-stage deceleration and diffusion of the airflow is realized, and thus the flow loss of the airflow when flowing through the diffuser is reduced.


The following will further describe the diffuser 10 provided in this embodiment. In the diffuser 10 of this embodiment, multiple rows of stationary blades 114 are arranged along the axial direction of the base ring member 11 in the diffuser 10, so that the airflow flowing through the diffuser 10 can obtain the multi-stage diversion effect from each row of the stationary blades 114, in such a way, the multi-stage deceleration and diffusion of the air flow is realized first. The chord length of each stationary blade 114 in one row is greater than or equal to the chord length of each stationary blade 114 in the next adjacent row, from the air-inlet side to the air-outlet side of the base ring member 11. In this way, the flow separation phenomenon caused by the airflow can be gradually weakened through each row of stationary blades 114, and thus the flow loss generated when the airflow passes through the diffuser 10 can be significantly reduced. In this way, the airflow, due to the diversion effect from each row of stationary blades 114, can be smoothly decelerated and diffused without large flow loss.


In this embodiment, the head of the stationary blade 114 has an inlet placement angle, and from the air-inlet side to the air-outlet side, the inlet placement angle of each stationary blade 114 in one row is smaller than or equal to the inlet placement angle of each stationary blade 114 in the next adjacent row. An outlet placement angle of each stationary blade 114 in one row is smaller than or equal to the outlet placement angle of each stationary blade 114 in the next adjacent row.


For example, by arranging the inlet placement angle of each stationary blade 114 in one row to be smaller than or equal to that in the next adjacent row, and arranging the outlet placement angle of each stationary blade 114 in one row to be smaller than or equal to that in the next adjacent row, the non-uniformity of the airflow can be effectively suppressed when the airflow flows from the previous row of stationary blades 114 to the next row of stationary blades 114; meanwhile, the flow separation phenomenon generated when the airflow flows from the previous row of stationary blades 114 to the next row of stationary blades 114 can also be effectively suppressed. Thus, the flow loss when the airflow flows from the previous row of stationary blades 114 to the next row of stationary blades 114 can be effectively reduced, thereby improving the flow efficiency of the airflow.


In this embodiment, the tail of the stationary blade 114 has an outlet placement angle, and from the air-inlet side to the air-outlet side, the outlet placement angle of each stationary blade 114 in one row may be smaller than or equal to the inlet placement angle of each stationary blade 114 in the next adjacent row, such that the airflow can smoothly flow from the previous row of stationary blades 114 to the next row of stationary blades 114. In this embodiment, the outlet placement angle of each stationary blade 114 in one row may also be larger than the inlet placement angle of each stationary blade 114 in the next adjacent row.


In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the diffuser 10 may include a first row of stationary blades 12 and a second row of stationary blades 13. The first and second rows of stationary blades 13 are disposed on the outer ring wall 111 of the base ring member 11 along the axial direction of the base ring member 11 in sequence from the air-inlet side to the air-outlet side. For example, two rows of the stationary blades 114 are provided, which on the one hand ensures that the number of stationary blades 114 is sufficient to fully drain and diffuse the airflow, and on the other hand ensures that the number of rows of the stationary blades 114 is not too much, which in turn achieves a compact design of the diffuser 10.


In this embodiment, the angle value of the inlet placement angle of each stationary blade in the first row of stationary blades 12 may range from 5° to 20°, and the angle value of the inlet placement angle of each stationary blade in the second row of stationary blades 13 may range from 20° to 40°. For example, the angle value of the inlet placement angle of each stationary blade in the first row 12 may be 5°, 5.5°, 6°, 6.5°, 7°, 7.5°, 8°, 8.5°, 9°, 9.5°, 10°, 10.5°, 11°, 11.5°, 12°, 12.5°, 13°, 13.5°, 14°, 14.5°, 15°, 15.5°, 16°, 16.5°, 17°, 17.5°, 18°, 18.5°, 19°, 19.5° or 20°.


The angle value of the inlet placement angle of each stationary blade in the second row of stationary blades 13 may be 20°, 20.5°, 21°, 21.5°, 22°, 22.5°, 23°, 23.5°, 24°, 24.5°, 25°, 25.5°, 26°, 26.5°, 27°, 27.5°, 28°, 28.5°, 29°, 29.5°, 30°, 30.5°, 31°, 31.5°, 32°, 32.5°, 33°, 33.5°, 34°, 34.5, 35°, 35.5°, 36°, 36.5°, 37°, 37.5°, 38°, 38.5°, 39°, 39.5° or 40°.


The angle value of the inlet placement angle of each stationary blade in the first row of stationary blades 12 ranges from 5° to 20°, and the angle value of the inlet placement angle of each stationary blade in the second row of stationary blades 13 ranges from 20° to 40°, so that an effective suppression of the flow non-uniformity when the airflow passes through the stationary blades in the first and second rows 12, 13 can be realized, and also the effective diversion of the airflow by the second row of stationary blades 13 can be ensured.


In this embodiment, the angle value of the outlet placement angle of each stationary blade in the first row of stationary blades 12 may range from 10° to 60°, and the angle value of the inlet placement angle of each stationary blade in the second row of stationary blades 13 may range from 60° to 80°. For example, the angle value of the outlet placement angle of each stationary blade in the first row of stationary blades 12 may be 10°, 15°, 20°, 25°, 30°, 35°, 40°, 45°, 50°, 55° or 60°. The angle value of the inlet placement angle of each stationary blade in the second row 13 may be 60°, 61°, 62°, 63°, 64°, 65°, 66°, 67°, 68°, 69°, 70°, 71°, 72°, 73°, 74°, 75°, 76°, 77°, 78°, 79° or 80°.


The angle value of the outlet placement angle of each stationary blade in the first row of stationary blades 12 ranges from 10° to 60°, and the angle value of the inlet placement angle of each stationary blade in the second row of stationary blades 13 ranges from 60° to 80°, so that an effective suppression of the flow separation phenomenon generated when the airflow flows from the first row of stationary blades 12 to the second row of stationary blades 13 can be realized, the flow state of the airflow can be optimized, and also the flow loss generated when the airflow flows from the first row of stationary blades 12 to the second row of stationary blades 13 can be reduced, and thus the flow efficiency of the airflow is improved.


In this embodiment, a ratio of the chord length of each stationary blade in the first row of stationary blades 12 to the chord length of each stationary blade in the second row of stationary blades 13 may be greater than or equal to 1 and smaller than or equal to 5. For example, the ratio of the chord length of each stationary blade in the first row of stationary blades 12 to the chord length of each stationary blade in the second row of stationary blades 13 may be 1, 1.2, 1.5, 1.7, 2, 2.2, 2.5, 2.7, 3, 3, 3.2, 3.5, 3.7, 4, 4.2, 4.5, 4.7 or 5. The ratio of the chord length of each stationary blade in the first row of stationary blades 12 to the chord length of each stationary blade in the second row of stationary blades 13 is greater than or equal to 1 and smaller than or equal to 5, such that the flow separation phenomenon generated when the airflow from the first row of stationary blades 12 to the second row of stationary blades 13 can be further weakened, and thus the flow loss generated when the airflow passes through the diffuser 10 can be further reduced.


In this embodiment, the number of stationary blades in the first row of stationary blades 12 may be smaller than or equal to the number of stationary blades in the second row of stationary blades 13. The stationary blades in the first row of stationary blades 12 and in the second row of stationary blades 13 are respectively distributed uniformly along the circumferential direction of the outer ring wall. The first row of stationary blades 12 and the second row of stationary blades 13 are distributed in mutual dislocation in the axial direction of the outer ring wall, and at least the head or tail of one stationary blade 114 in the first row of stationary blades 12 is aligned with the head or tail of one stationary blade 114 in the second row of stationary blades 13 in the axial direction of the outer ring wall. In this way, the connection between the first row of stationary blades 12 and the second row of stationary blades of stationary blades 13 is stronger, thereby facilitating the efficient flow of air from the first row of stationary blades 12 to the second row of stationary blades of stationary blades 13.


In this embodiment, the number of stationary blades in the first row of stationary blades 12 may range from 6 to 20, and the number of stationary blades in the second row of stationary blades 13 may range from 10 to 30. For example, the number of stationary blades in the first row of stationary blades 12 may be 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 or 20, the number of stationary blades in the second row of stationary blades 13 may be 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29 or 30. The number of stationary blades in the first row of stationary blades 12 is in a range from 6 to 20, and the number of stationary blades in the second row of stationary blades 13 is in a range from 10 to 30, such that the airflow can be more fully drained and diffused through the second row of stationary blades of stationary blades 13 when the airflow flows from the first row of stationary blades 12 to the second row of stationary blades of stationary blades 13, to further reduce the flow rate and increase the pressure, and thus the diffusion effect of the diffuser 10 can be also improved.


In this embodiment, the first row of stationary blades 12 and the second row of stationary blades of stationary blades 13 are not in a one-to-one correspondence, or in a strict N-to-one relationship. In this embodiment, the number of the second row of stationary blades of stationary blades 13 is determined first, meanwhile, one end of a certain stationary blade 114 in the second row of stationary blades 13 is positioned aligning with one end of a certain stationary blade 114 in the first row of stationary blades 12, and then the second row of stationary blades of stationary blades 13 is uniformly distribute on the outer ring wall of the base ring member 11. The first row of stationary blades 12 is arranged after the arrangement of the second row of stationary blades of stationary blades 13 is completed.


In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, a distance (shown as D in FIG. 4) along the axial direction of the base ring member 11 between the head of each stationary blade in the first row of stationary blades 12 and the tail of each stationary blade in the second row of stationary blades 13 may be smaller than or equal to 3 mm. For example, the distance along the axial direction of the base ring member 11 between the head of each stationary blade in the first row of stationary blades 12 and the tail of each stationary blade in the second row of stationary blades 13 is defined to be smaller than or equal to 3 mm, which on the one hand, ensures a smooth connection of the first row of stationary blades 12 and the second row of stationary blades of stationary blades 13 for the airflow diversion thereby ensuring the flow efficiency of the airflow, and on the other hand, reserves sufficient assembly clearance for the first and second rows of stationary blades 12, 13 to avoid mutual interference between the first row of stationary blades 12 and the second row of stationary blades of stationary blades 13 caused by the machining dimension error of the first and second rows of stationary blades 12, 13.


Optionally, the distance along the axial direction of the base ring member 11 between the head of each stationary blade in the first row of stationary blades 12 and the tail of each stationary blade in the second row of stationary blades 13 may be greater than or equal to 1 mm and smaller than or equal to 3 mm, such that an optimal balance between ensuring the flow efficiency and avoiding the mutual interference of the first row of stationary blades 12 and the second row of stationary blades of stationary blades 13 can be obtained, so that the optimum diversion and diffusion effect can be achieved for the airflow passing through the first and second rows of stationary blades 12, 13 on the premise of avoiding the mutual interference between the first and second rows of stationary blades, 1213.


In this embodiment, the outlet placement angle may include a first outlet placement angle located at a blade root of the stationary blade 114 and a second outlet placement angle located at a blade tip of the stationary blade 114. A difference between the angle values of the first outlet placement angle and the second outlet placement angles may ranges from 0° to 20°.


In this way, when the difference between the angle values of the first outlet placement angle and the second outlet placement angle is not 0°, a contour line of the stationary blade 114 along the radial direction of the base ring member 11 will be a curve indicating that the stationary blade 114 is bent in the radial direction of the base ring member 11. When the difference between the two angle values is 0°, it is indicated that the stationary blade 114 extends straight along the radial direction of the base ring member 11, and the angle value of the outlet placement angle is constant along the radial direction.


For example, the difference between the angle values of the first outlet placement angle and the second outlet placement angle may be 0°, 1°, 2°, 3°, 4°, 5°, 6°, 7°, 8°, 9°, 10°, 11°, 12°, 13°, 14°, 15°, 16°, 17°, 18°, 19° or 20°.


The difference between the angle value of the outlet placement angle of the stationary blade 114 close to the outer ring wall 111 of the base ring member 11 and the angle value of the outlet placement angle close to a blade tip surface of the stationary blade 114 is in a range from 0° to 20°, such that the non-uniformity of the airflow at the tail of the stationary blade 114 is further suppressed, and thus the effective diversion of the airflow by the stationary blades 114 is further ensured.


In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the stationary blade 114 may be an arc-shaped blade. For example, by arranging the stationary blades 114 to be arc-shaped blades, the stationary blades 114 have a smoother and more evenness diversion curve, thereby ensuring that the airflow can flow through the stationary blades 114 more smoothly and stably.


In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, a top surface of each stationary blade 114 of the diffuser 10 is in contact with the inner side wall of the fan cover 21. For example, the top surface of each stationary blade 114 is arranged abutting against the inner side wall of the fan cover 21, such that each stationary blade 114 can fully occupy the area enclosed between the base ring member 11 and the fan cover 21, thereby realizing a sufficient diversion effect for the airflow entering the air supply device 20, and thus achieving sufficient diffusion and deceleration of the airflow.


Based on the above parameter settings, the diffuser 10 may have several specific configurations. In this embodiment, the first row of stationary blades 12 may have an inlet placement angle of 15° and an outlet placement angle of 24°, the second row of stationary blades 13 may have an inlet placement angle of 35° and an outlet placement angle of 75°, and the axial distance between the tail of the first row of stationary blades 12 and the corresponding head of the second row of stationary blades 13 may be 1.8 mm A good aerodynamic performance can be achieved when the diffuser 10 is configured according to the above parameters, and the overall efficiency of the air supply device 20 having the above-mentioned diffuser is about 54% under the measurement condition of the 13 mm orifice plate according to the IEC60312 standard.


In this embodiment, the first row of stationary blades 12 may have an inlet placement angle of 20° and an outlet placement angle of 27°, the second row of stationary blades 13 may have an inlet placement angle of 42° and an outlet placement angle of 60°, and the axial distance between the tail of the first row of stationary blades 12 and the corresponding head of the second row of stationary blades 13 may be 1.3 mm A good aerodynamic performance can be achieved when the diffuser 10 is configured according to the above parameters, and the overall efficiency of the air supply device 20 having the above-mentioned diffuser is about 54.2% under the measurement condition of the 13 mm orifice plate according to the IEC60312 standard.


This embodiment also provides an air supply device 20, which includes the above-mentioned diffuser 10. For example, the air supply device 20 includes a fan cover 21, a drive mechanism 22, an impeller 23 and a diffuser 10. The drive mechanism 22 is arranged in the fan cover 21. The impeller 23 and the drive mechanism 22 are connected and arranged corresponding to an air inlet 24 of the fan cover 21.

The motor 222 is arranged on the frame 221, and a drive shaft 224 of the motor 222 passes through the frame 221 and the diffuser 10 and is connected to the impeller 23 so as to drive the impeller 23 to rotate.


The air supply device provided in this embodiment includes the above-mentioned diffuser. The above-mentioned diffuser can ensure a smooth deceleration and diffusion when the airflow flows through the diffuser on the premise of no large flow loss, such that the overall working efficiency of the air supply device can also be improved, thereby saving the working energy consumption of the air supply device.

Referring to FIGS. 6 and 7, the diffuser 10 according to another exemplary embodiment will now be described. The diffuser 10 includes a base ring member 11 and a plurality of stationary blades 114, and the plurality of stationary blades 114 are arranged in multiple rows. The multiple rows of stationary blades 114 are arranged along the axial direction of the base ring member 11, and the number of the stationary blades 114 in each row of the stationary blades 114 is multiple. The multiple stationary blades 114 in each row of the stationary blades 114 are arranged along the circumferential direction of the base ring member 11, such that a flow channel 15 for guiding airflow can be formed between two adjacent stationary blades 114. The airflow, when flows through the flow channel 15 between the two adjacent stationary blades 114 on the peripheral side of the base ring member 11, is guided by the stationary blades 114, such that the airflow will be more stable, thereby reducing eddy currents and energy loss. The cross-section of the base ring member 11 is circular, so that when the airflow is changed from rotation around the radial direction of base ring member 11 to flowing in the axial direction of base ring member 11, the airflow flows to the peripheral side of base ring 11 at a similar distance, and hence the resistance is also similar. In this way, the airflow can flow more smoothly to the peripheral side of the base ring member 11 and thus the energy loss is reduced. The plurality of stationary blades 114 are arranged in multiple rows along the axial direction of the base ring member 11, such that the airflow can be gradually guided through the multiple rows of stationary blades 114, thereby reducing energy loss and improving the effect of diffusion.

In this embodiment, referring to FIGS. 6 and 8, an outer diameter of the base ring member 11 ranges from 35 to 80 mm Thus, the thickness H of the stationary blades 114 is better matched with the base ring member 11, the size of the flow channel 15 between the adjacent stationary blades 114 is ensured, the resistance to the airflow is reduced, the energy loss is reduced, and the diffusion effect is improved.


In this embodiment, referring to FIG. 12, for each stationary blade 114 having a non-constant thickness H, the thickness at the blade root 17 corresponding to a position on the center-line of each stationary blade 114 is H1, the thickness at the blade tip 16 corresponding to this position is H2, and H1≥H2. That is, for any position on the center-line of each stationary blade 114, the thickness H1 at the blade root 17 corresponding to this position is greater than or equal to the thickness H2 at the blade tip 16 corresponding to this position, so that the flow separation near the blade root 17 can be better regulated, thereby reducing the flow separation loss, and improving the diffusion effect.


In this embodiment, referring to FIG. 12, for each stationary blade 114 having a non-constant thickness H, the following relation may be satisfied: 0≤H1-H2≤0.5 mm That is, at any position of each stationary blade 114 the thickness at the blade root 17 is thicker than that at the blade tip 16 by smaller than or equal to 0.5 mm, which is convenient for processing and manufacturing, and ensures the strength of the blade tip 16 of each stationary blade 114 at each position, meanwhile, the flow separation near the blade root 17 is regulated, the flow separation loss can is reduced, and the diffusion effect is improved.


In this embodiment, referring to FIG. 12, for each stationary blade 114 having a non-constant thickness H, the thickness H of each stationary blade 114 at each point on the center-line of each stationary blade 114 is gradually increased from the blade root 17 to the blade tip 16 of the stationary blade 114, so as to better regulate the flow separation near the blade root 17, reduce the flow separation loss, and improve the diffusion effect.


When the diffuser 10 is in use, the airflow flows radially and circumferentially at high speed from the outlet of the impeller, and turns into the diffuser 10 axially at a noticeably short distance from the fan cover, so the flow separation at the outlet of the impeller is serious.


In this embodiment, the installation angle θ of each stationary blade 114 is gradually increased from the head to the tail of the stationary blade 114, so as to gradually reduce the circumferential speed and absolute speed of the airflow, thereby improving the deceleration and diffusion effect. Meanwhile, the profiles 18 of the stationary blades 114 are arranged to have an inclination, which can further reduce the eddy current of the flow channels 15, reduce the energy loss, and improve the diffusion effect.


In this embodiment, the installation angle θ of the position chord length L5 at different positions of the stationary blade 114 may be changed as follows: the installation angle θ at the first half of the stationary blade 114, is basically equal to the inlet placement angle α, so that the area of each flow channel 15 between the stationary blades 114 in the first half of the stationary blade 114 is increased uniformly to achieve uniform reduction of the absolute velocity of the airflow and diffusion effect. The installation angle θ at the second half of the stationary blade 114 is increased from the inlet installation angle α to the outlet installation angle β, so as to reduce the circumferential speed and absolute speed of the airflow, and to further improve the deceleration and diffusion effect.


In this embodiment, referring to FIG. 7, the inlet placement angle αa of each stationary blade 114 in the first row of stationary blades 12 ranges from 5° to 10°. The inlet placement angle αa of each stationary blade 114 in the first row of stationary blades 12 is in a range from 5° to 10°, so that the airflow having high circumferential velocity at the inlet of the stationary blade 114 can be better matched, and thus the absolute velocity of the airflow can be uniformly reduced and the diffusion effect can be improved.


In this embodiment, referring to FIG. 7, the inlet placement angle αb of each stationary blade 114 in the second row of stationary blades 13 ranges from 20° to 60°, The inlet placement angle αa of each stationary blade 114 in the second row 13 is in a range from 20° to 60°, so that the airflow having high circumferential velocity at the inlet of the stationary blade 114 can be better matched, and thus the absolute velocity of the airflow can be uniformly reduced and the diffusion effect can be improved.


In this embodiment, the inlet placement angle αa of each stationary blade 114 in the first row of stationary blades 12 is in the range of 5° to 10°; and the inlet placement angle αb of each stationary blade 114 in the second row of stationary blades 13 is in the range of 20° to 60°. Thus, the circumferential speed and absolute velocity can be gradually reduced as the airflow flowing through the first row of stationary blades 12 to the second row of stationary blades 13, the non-uniformity of the airflow at the tail of the first row of stationary blades 12 can be reduced, the flow loss can be reduced, and thus the diffusion effect can be improved.


In this embodiment, the outlet placement angle βa of each stationary blade 114 in the first row of stationary blades 12 ranges from 10° to 20°. Since the airflow angle distribution is more uneven when the airflow flows out from the tail of the stationary blades 114, the outlet placement angle βa is in a range from 10° to 20°. Thus, the non-uniformity of the outlet flow at the tail of the stationary blade 114 can be further suppressed, the energy loss can be reduced and thus the deceleration and diffusion effect can be improved.


In this embodiment, the inlet placement angle αa of each stationary blade 114 in the first row of stationary blades 12 ranges from 10° to 20°; and the inlet placement angle αb of each stationary blade 114 in the second row of stationary blades 13 ranges from 20° to 60°.

In this embodiment, the angle range of the outlet placement angle βb of each stationary blade 114 in the second row of stationary blades 13 may be 50° to 90°. Since the airflow angle distribution is more uneven when the airflow flows out from the tail of the stationary blades 114, the outlet placement angle βb is arranged to be in a range from 50° to 90°, such that the non-uniformity of the outlet flow at the tail of the stationary blade 114 can be further suppressed, the energy loss can be reduced and thus the deceleration and diffusion effect can be improved.

In this embodiment, a variation range of the inlet placement angle α of each stationary blade 114 along the radial direction of the base ring member 11 is smaller than or equal to 10°. That is, the inlet placement angle α of each stationary blade 114 varies from the blade root 17 to the blade tip 16 by smaller than or equal to 10°, and the inlet placement angle α at the blade root 17 of each stationary blade 114 is greater than or equal to the inlet placement angle α at the blade tip 16 of this stationary blade 114, which, on the one hand, is convenient for processing, and on the other hand, can reduce the loss of flow separation and improve the effect of diffuser.


In this embodiment, referring to FIGS. 6 and 8, in two adjacent rows of stationary blades 114, the number of stationary blades 114 in the next row is 1.5 to 3 times of the number of stationary blades 114 in the previous row. The number of stationary blades 114 in the previous row is relatively small, while the number of stationary blades 114 in the next row is set to be larger, so that the airflow can be gradually guided when flowing through each row of stationary blades 114 in sequence, and thus the airflow can be decelerated and the diffusion effect can be improved.


In this embodiment, referring to FIGS. 6 and 8, in two adjacent rows of stationary blades 114, the tail of one stationary blade 114 in the previous row deviates from the head of the corresponding stationary blade 114 in the adjacent next row along the circumferential direction of the base ring member 11 is smaller than or equal to 20°. That is, an included angle between the plane passing through the blade root 17 at the tail of each stationary blade 114 in the previous row and the axis of the base ring member 11 and the plane passing through the blade root 17 at the head of the corresponding stationary blade 114 in the next row and the axis of the base ring member 11, is smaller than or equal to 20°, so as to reduce the non-uniformity of the airflow, reduce the loss of flow separation, and improve the diffusion effect.


In this embodiment, referring to FIG. 14, in two adjacent rows of stationary blades 114, the tail of one stationary blade 114 in the previous row is aligned with the head of the corresponding stationary blade 114 in the adjacent next row, so as to reduce the non-uniformity of airflow, reduce the loss of flow separation, and improve the diffusion effect.


In this embodiment, referring to FIGS. 9, 10 and 11, the inclination angle Q of the profile 18 at a certain point on the stationary blade 114 may refer to an included angle between the line segment where the profile 18 of the stationary blade 114 intersects the radial surface of the base ring member 11 passing through the point on the stationary blade 114 and the radial line passing through the point on the stationary blade 114.


In this embodiment, the radial surface of the base ring member 11 refers to a plane perpendicular to the axial direction of the base ring member 11. The radial line is the radial line of the base ring member 11, and the radial line of the base ring member 11 refers to a straight line extending radially along the base ring member 11. The radial line passing through this point on the stationary blade 114 refers to a straight line extending radially along the base ring member 11 and passing through this point.


In this embodiment, for each stationary blade 114 having inclined profiles 18, the inclination angle of the profile 18 at the tail of each stationary blade 114 is greater than or equal to the inclination angle of the profile 18 at head of this stationary blade 114. The inclination angle of the profile 18 at the tail is arranged to be greater than or equal to the inclination angle of the profile 18 at the head of each stationary blade 114, so that the stationary blades 114 can gradually strengthen the guidance and adjustment of the airflow when the airflow flows through the flow channels 15 between the stationary blades 114, the eddy current of the flow channel 15b can be improved, and thus the separation loss, the airflow energy loss and the noise can be reduced.


In this embodiment, for each stationary blade 114 having inclined profiles 18: the inclination angle of the profile 18 of each stationary blade 114 is gradually increased from the head to the tail of the stationary blade 114, so that the airflow, when flowing through the flow channels 15 between the stationary blades 114, can be gradually adjusted to improve the airflow separation loss, reduce energy loss, and reduce noise.


In this embodiment, referring to FIGS. 9 and 10, in the second row of stationary blades 13, the inclination angle of profile 18b at the head of each stationary blade 114 is Q1, and the inclination angle of the profile 18b at tail of each stationary blade 114 is Q2, and Q2≥Q1. The inclination angle Q2 of the profile 18b at the tail of each stationary blade 114 in the second row of stationary blades 13 is set to be greater than or equal to the inclination angle Q1 of the profile 18b, so that the stationary blades 114 can gradually strengthen the guidance and adjustment of the airflow when the airflow flows through the flow channels 15b between the stationary blades 114, to improve the eddy current of the flow channel 15b, reduce the separation loss, and then reduce the airflow energy loss and noise.


In this embodiment, referring to FIGS. 9 and 10, in the second row of stationary blades 13: the value range of Q1 may be 0° to 30°, that is, the inclination angle Q1 of the profile 18b at the head of each stationary blade 114 may be smaller than or equal to 30°, so that when the airflow enters the flow channels 15b between the stationary blades 114, it is possible to prevent the airflow rotation angle from being over-adjusted, which will result in a large energy loss. The value range of Q2 may be 0° to 40°, that is, the inclination angle Q2 of the profile 18b at the tail of each stationary blade 114 is smaller than or equal to 40°, so that when the airflow enters the flow channels 15b between the stationary blades 114, it is possible to prevent the airflow rotation angle from being over-adjusted, which will result in a large energy loss.


In this embodiment, referring to FIGS. 9 and 10, in the second row of stationary blades 13, the value range of Q1 may be 12° to 18°, so that the flow separation loss and noise can be better reduced when the airflow enters the flow channels 15b between the stationary blades 114. The value range of Q2 may be 20° to 35°, and Q2≥Q1. Thus, the flow separation loss, the energy loss and the aerodynamic noise are better reduced when the airflow flows through the flow channels 15b between the stationary blades 114.


In this embodiment, in the second row of stationary blades 13, the value of Q1 ranges from 0° to 30°, so as to prevent the airflow angle from being over-adjusted when the airflow enters the flow channels 15b between the stationary blades 114, that may result in a larger energy loss. The value of Q2 ranges from 15° to 40°, so as to avoid excessive adjustment of the airflow when the airflow flows through the flow channel 15b between the stationary blades 114, resulting in a large energy loss.


In this embodiment, referring to FIG. 9, an included angle between the plane passing through the blade root 17 at the head of each stationary blade 114 and the axis of the base ring member 11 and the plane passing through the blade root 17 at the tail of this stationary blade 114 and the axis of the base ring member 11 is a wrap angle P of this stationary blade 114.


In this embodiment, referring to FIG. 9, in two adjacent rows of stationary blades 114, the wrap angle of each stationary blade 114 in the previous row is greater than or equal to the wrap angle of each stationary blade 114 in the next row.

In this embodiment, referring to FIG. 7, in two adjacent rows of stationary blades 114, the chord length Lb of each stationary blades 114 in the previous row is greater than or equal to that in the next row. Since the airflow has a larger circumferential velocity when entering the diffuser 10, the chord length Lb of each stationary blade 114 in the previous row of stationary blades 114 is arranged to be longer, so that the airflow when flowing through each row of stationary blades 114, can be better guided, the circumferential speed of the airflow can be reduced, and also the airflow through each row of stationary blades 114 can be gradually guided, thereby reducing separation loss.


In this embodiment, referring to FIG. 13, the plane passing through the axial direction of the base ring member 11 is the meridian plane of the diffuser 10. The projection of each stationary blade 114 on the meridian plane along the circumferential direction of the base ring member 11 is the meridional projection plane of this stationary blade 114.

That is, the line segment of the leading-edge line 214 of each stationary blade 114 in this row on the meridional projection plane is inclined to the radial direction of the base ring member 11, thereby the flow separation loss can be reduced and the diffusion effect can be improved.


In this embodiment, when multiple rows of stationary blades 114 are included in the diffuser 10, the leading-edge line 214 of each stationary blade 114 in one of the multiple rows of the stationary blades 114 may be inclined to the radial surface of the base ring member 11.

The absolute value of the inclination angle B1 between the leading-edge line 214 of each stationary blade 114 in the second row of stationary blades 13 and the radial surface of the base ring member 11 is arranged to be smaller than or equal to 25°, so as to better reduce the flow separation loss and improve the diffusion effect.


In this embodiment, referring to FIG. 13, in the second row of stationary blades 13, the leading-edge line 214 of each stationary blade 114 is inclined toward the tail of the stationary blade 114, so as to further regulate the flow separation near the blade root 17, reduce flow separation loss and improve diffusion effect.

That is, the line segment of the trailing-edge line 215 of each stationary blade 114 in this row on the meridional projection plane is inclined to the radial direction of the base ring member 11. Thus, the non-uniformity of the airflow at the outlet of the stationary blades 114 can be reduced, and the diffusion effect can be improved.


In this embodiment, when multiple rows of stationary blades 114 are included in the diffuser 10, the trailing-edge line 215 of each stationary blade 114 in one of the multiple rows of the stationary blades 114 may be inclined to the radial surface of the base ring member 11.
