【 摘 要 】

The article discusses the current research and development projects realized by KOMAG within the European INESI project, the aim of which is to increase the effectiveness of auxiliary ventilation in underground mines. They mainly focus on improving the fan operational parameters by modification of rotor's blades. Modification of the blades by 3D printed and stuck inserts with supporting role of CFD modelling are discussed. The results of testing the fan before and after modification, are presented.
