How to centrifugal fan design?
(OP)
Hello everybody, I would like to incrase pressure of primary air fan to 400 mbar. I try to use fan laws for calculate new fan dimension. In calculate horsepower of motor increase to 410 kW.
How to decrease horsepower?
Does anyone know about the parameters that affect the design of fan? For example, is there an optimum power or optimum number of blades, curvature and shape for the blade? Is there any book I could refer to?
Thanks.

If you're looking for a book, you might consider "Fan Engineering" by Howden (formerly Buffalo Forge) http://www.howden.com/en/Businesses/HowdenBuffalo

6 psi in the old money can be achieved by a variety of different blowers.

A blower can give you your 6 psi - a fan might give you only 0.25 psi (6 inches water gage) pressure.
