Abstract

A blower wheel comprises a hub, a guide and blades extending radially between the hub and the guide, each blade comprising a root at its junction with the hub and a head at the junction with the guide, each blade having a leading edge and a trailing edge between which, at each flattened cross section, a chord is defined. For each blade, in the radial direction from the root to the head, the pitch angle between the chord and the rotation axis of the wheel varies and the variation in the pitch angle between the root and the head has a point of inflexion between a first level and a second level.
