3D Printed duct fan

This is a 3D printed duct fan that can be used with a 775 motor or a popular BLDC (for example 2212). It can obviously also be adapted to any other motor. It’s an open-source project so below you can find STL files and .F3D files of a project so that you can easily modify and adapt it to your needs.

Files

Below you can download ZIP with all the STL and F3D files of the duct fan, fans, and air filter attachments that I designed. You can also find here the PDF with all of my measurements and plots. Feel free to print, modify and share with others.

Tests and measurments

In the beginning, there was just an idea for a simple duct fan but later I thought that I can optimize it and design a better fan. In order to do that I experimented a lot and measure the performance of each fan while noting everything in a spreadsheet. Later I made a lot of plots to show how each fun perform and you can see all of that here:

You can also find a PDF version of that in the ZIP above.

Here you have 6 most interesting plots where you can observe the difference between performance of each fan and how the measuring method influences the end result.
