Performance Comparison 9 vs. 12-Blade Wheels Advantages of 12-Blade Wheels performance is adequate, recent industry trends have seen the emergence of 12-blade wheel designs where customers demand higher mechanical efficiency and lower sound levels. Model QEM and QEP plenum fans feature a 12-blade aluminum airfoil construction wheel. As demonstrated in Figure 1, this 12-blade design meets customer needs by providing higher efficiency, lower sound levels as well as lower energy consumption
