SNeCu is on a distinguished road
Dear everyone, in one-passage simulation (one blade) for an axial fan, when I set the value of mass flow rate at the inlet, does I assign the mass flow rate for the whole fan or only the single passage?

That's right. This is why I did not answer this question. Just do a model and look at the results and work it out for yourself. I am not going to answer a question which will only require a few minutes of investigation to answer.
