CPU 냉각용 저소음 Micro-Cooling Fan의 개발

초록

Micro fans of randomly swept-blades were designed to provide C.P.U. in a personal computer with effective cooling in a very quiet mode. The proto-type axial micro-fans machined by a laser sintering machine were tested against manufactured products by comparing the performance and overall sound pressure level with spectral measurements in an environment suggested by ASHRAE and ANSI standards. The predicted OSPLs and directivity patterns of fans by iDesignFan software were in good agreements with measured data. The newly introduced fans of randomly swept-blades were proved to provide a very promising mode of low noise at small loading conditions.
