Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a flow generating device for a heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning system. The flow generating device includes a housing having a channel defining a flow path of a fluid and a fan blade having a rotational axis extending through the channel, where the fan blade is configured to rotate to force the fluid along the flow path. A portion of the fan blade axially protrudes beyond the channel in a direction generally aligned with the flow path and a winglet extends from the portion of the fan blade.
