Abstract
Both numerical simulations and experimental analysis were carried out in this study. ANSYS software was used in a 2D simulation to predict the flow fields and compare the results with experiments to construct a simulation system. The simulation system was used to study various blade related parameters including materials, thickness, fan shape, resonance frequency, and fan tip displacement on the airflow wind velocity, while the power consumption was maintained within 0.25Â W via electromagnetic actuator. Numerical simulations and experimental results show that trimming the fan blade area causes the resonance frequency and the tip displacement to increase. Therefore, with proper fan shape, the Aluminum 1050 fan obtained the highest wind velocity, up to 1.81Â m/s. In sum, the numerical simulations and experimental results provide a better understanding of electromagnetic swing blade blower design.
