    The design of a low-noise rotor-only axial flow fan series 

    Van der Spuy, Sybrand Johannes (Stellenbosch : University of Stellenbosch, 1997-12)
    ENGLISH ABSTRACT: A design routine was derived for designing a series of rotor-only axial flow fans. The routine was applied by designing two different series of axial flow fans. The first design was for a general application ...
