HEAT DISSIPATION DEVICE AND CENTRIFUGAL FAN THEREOF

摘要

A centrifugal fan includes a casing and an impeller received in the casing. The casing defines an air outlet at one side thereof. An air channel is defined in the casing between a sidewall of the casing and outermost free ends of blades of the impeller. The air channel has an upstream end and a downstream end along a rotation direction of the impeller. A plurality of air guide plates is formed in the casing and disposed at a junction between the downstream end of the air channel and an area of the air outlet directly communicating with the downstream end of the air channel. The air guide plates are structured and arranged in a streamlined manner and pattern with respect to air flowing from the downstream end of the air channel towards the air outlet.
