DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described clearly and completely hereinafter in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Apparently, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, rather than all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present disclosure, all of other embodiments, made by the person skilled in the art without any creative efforts, fall into the scope of protection of the present disclosure.


The fairing according to the embodiments of the present disclosure is applied in a fan 2. As shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, the fan 2 includes a fan housing 21, a fan rotation shaft 22 and fan blades 23, the fan housing 21 has a fan duct 24, the fan rotation shaft 22 and the fan blades 23 are located in the fan duct 24, the fan blades 23 are fixed to the fan rotation shaft 22, and the fan rotation shaft 22 can be rotated to drive the fan blades 23 to rotate.


As shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 2, FIG. 4, FIG. 8 and FIG. 10, the fairing according to the embodiment of the present disclosure includes a fairing body 11 arranged at a fan air vent, the fairing body 11 has a fairing area 12, and the fairing area 12 is provided with a fairing through hole 13.


It can be understood that the fairing body 11 has a non-fairing area at an inner side of an inner ring of the fairing area 12. The fairing body 11 has a non-fairing area at an outer side of an outer ring of the fairing area 12, or the outer ring of the fairing area 12 is an outer side of the fairing body 11.


In the fairing provided in the above embodiment, the fairing body 11 has the fairing area 12, the fairing area 12 is provided with the fairing through hole 13, and the fairing body 11 is configured to be arranged at the fan air vent, so that the airflow is faired through the fairing through hole 13, which reduces the turbulence at the fan air vent, thereby reducing the noise of the fan 2.


As shown in FIG. 12, it can be seen that the turbulent at the air inlet of the fan 2 is large, and the existence of turbulent is one of the most important factors of the noise of the fan. FIG. 12 is obtained by the simulation software FLUENT. FIG. 12 is a flow field trajectory diagram of air flowing into the air inlet of the fan 2 from the outer side and then exiting the air outlet of the fan 2 in case that the fan 2 is in operation. It can be seen from FIG. 12 that the turbulence at the air inlet is large, that is, the variation of the wind velocity direction is great when the air is flowed in, and the most variation of the wind velocity direction appears at the edge of the fan blade 23, and the least variation of the wind velocity direction appears at the center of the fan blade 23. Assuming that a rotational angular velocity of the fan 2 is Ω, a linear velocity of a certain point on the fan blade 23 is V=ΩS, where S is a distance from the point on the fan blade 23 to the rotation center of the fan 2. It can be seen from the linear velocity formula that the farther away from the rotation center of the fan 2 is, the greater the linear velocity of the fan blade 23 is, and it can be known from the energy theorem that the stronger the turbulence capacity of this position is. Therefore, it can be concluded that the position where the air is disturbed most is located is at a tip of the fan blade 23, that is, at the edge, farthest from the rotation center of the fan 2, of the fan duct 24. By contrast, since the position where the fan shaft 22 is located has no fan blade 23, the air is disturbed least at this position, that is, the closer it is to the rotation center, the less the air velocity is, and the less the turbulence is. Therefore, it is not required for fairing at the rotation center of the fan 2. It can be understood that the rotation center of the fan 2 is an axis of the fan rotation shaft 22.


Based on the above idea, the fairing area 12 is annular and is located at a periphery of a geometric center of the fairing body 11. It can be understood that, in FIG. 1, FIG. 8 and FIG. 10, the point O is the geometric center of the fairing body 11. The geometric center of the fairing body 11 is collinear with the axis of the fan rotation shaft 22.


In the fairing provided in the above embodiments, the fairing area 12 is annular and is located at the periphery of the geometric center of the fairing body 11, so that the fairing body 11 has no fairing through hole 13 at its geometric center, which not only ensures the noise reduction effect, but also facilitates of the processing and reduces the cost.


After tests being made, the noise of the fan can be reduced by about 4 dBA after the fairing of the above embodiments is applied to each fan 2.


In a specific embodiment, since fairing is not required at the rotation center of the fan 2, optionally, the fairing body 11 can be configured to have a non-fairing area at an inner side of an inner ring of the fairing area 12, a projection of the non-fairing area on a projection plane completely falls on an end face of the fan rotation shaft 22, and the projection plane is coplanar with the end face of the fan rotation shaft 22.


It can be understood that the end surface of the fan rotation shaft 22 only refers to one of end faces of the fan rotation shaft 22. The end surface can be an end surface, close to the fairing body 11, of the fan rotation shaft 22, or an end surface, away from the fairing body 11, of the fan rotation shaft 22. The projection of the non-fairing area on the projection plane is not extended beyond the end surface of the fan rotation shaft 22.


In the above embodiments, taking the inner ring of the fairing area 12 being in a circle shape as example, 0<r≤r0; where r is a radius of the inner ring of the fairing area 12, and r0 is a radius of the fan rotation shaft 22, which ensures that the projection of the non-fairing area on the projection plane completely falls on the end face of the fan rotation shaft 22.


In practical disclosure, if the inner ring of the fairing area 12 has other shapes, it can be designed according to the above requirements, which is not limited in this embodiment.


In another specific embodiment, in order to improve the fairing effect, it is necessary to ensure that the airflow is flowed into the fan duct 24 through the fairing area 12. Specifically, the projection of the fairing area 12 on the projection plane and a projection of the fan duct 24 on the projection plane have an overlapping portion. The projection plane is perpendicular to an axis of the fan duct 24.
