Abstract
A centrifugal fan assembly includes an impeller assembly which has a fixed stator and a rotating impeller having a base plate, a hub connected to the base plate a plurality of backward curved first blades, and a plurality of backward curved second blades. Each first blade has an inner end which is connected to the hub. Each second blade has an inner end which is spaced apart from the hub and which tapers to a point. The first and second blades have different profiles or shapes. The axial length of the first blades is different from the axial length of the second blades. Each second blade forms an apex which projects axially from the base plate.
