A centrifugal fan includes: an impeller; and a scroll housing surrounding the impeller, the scroll housing having suction hole and discharge hole formed therein. The scroll housing includes: a base plate; a scroll wall connected to the base plate, the scroll wall being formed in a scroll shape from a cutoff; and a discharge wall extending from the scroll wall. In the centrifugal fan, a flow path extending portion having a flow path sectional area extending toward an air flow direction convexly protrudes in the outer direction of the scroll housing in the base plate. Accordingly, a flow path is formed to extend in two directions including a direction in which the scroll wall extends and a direction in which the flow path extending portion protrudes. Thus, the static pressure of a discharge air current can be quickly recovered, and the blowing performance of the centrifugal fan can be improved. Further, the flow path extending portion is formed to protrude from the base plate, so that it is possible to enhance utilization of space near the flow path extending portion. |
