Sound Performance

Figures 2 and 3 show the inlet and outlet sound 
spectrums for the size 33 unit used in the above 
performance comparison.

Lower Sound Power (LwA)

 

The overall A-weighted sound power levels for 
identical performance requirements show that the   
12-bladed wheel design is quieter. 

Easy to Attenuate

High sound power levels in the first and second 
octave bands are difficult to attenuate. The 12-bladed 
wheel generates less low frequency sound power.

Improved Sound Quality

A sound spectrum with a dominant tone can be 
annoying to a listener. Greenheck’s 12-bladed wheel 
provides balanced sound power levels across the 
octave bands. This results in sound that is pleasing to 
the listener.

Air Performance

Figure 1 plots the fan performance and efficiency of 
two fans running at the same rpm. Increased wheel 
efficiency allows the 12-bladed fan to produce more 
airflow while using less energy.

Advantages of 12-Blade Wheels

performance is adequate, recent industry trends have seen the emergence 
of 12-blade wheel designs where customers demand higher mechanical 
efficiency and lower sound levels.

Model QEM and QEP plenum fans feature a 12-blade aluminum airfoil 
construction wheel. As demonstrated in Figure 1, this 12-blade design 
meets customer needs by providing higher efficiency, lower sound levels 
as well as lower energy consumption.

Greenheck’s 12-blade wheel design features extruded aluminum blades 
up to and including size 49, while the largest sizes utilize laser cut, die-
formed aluminum blades. The two performance examples below demonstrate the 
superior performance of the 12-blade design.
