Abstract

An axial-flow fan includes an impeller mounted on a rotating shaft of a rotary drive device and a venturi casing surrounding an outer periphery of the impeller in a radial direction and including a suction port and a discharge port facing each other in an axial direction of the rotating shaft . An inner surface of the venturi casing includes a suction-side slant part 31 expanding the suction port outward in the radial direction of the impeller, a linear part continuing from the suction-side slant part and forming an axial flow of a fluid with the impeller, a discharge-side slant part 34 expanding the discharge port outward in the radial direction of the impeller, and a curved part connecting the linear part and the discharge-side slant part.
