Definitions

  • Supply air units or air-conditioning beams usually comprise a supply air chamber, a mixing chamber and a heat exchanger.
  • the flow of fresh air is brought from the supply air chamber into the mixing chamber, wherein the flow of fresh air is mixed with the circulated airflow, whereupon the combined airflow is conducted to the room space.
  • the circulated airflow is conducted into the mixing chamber through a heat exchanger, in which the circulated airflow can be heated or cooled.
  • the room air can be cooled in the summer time and heated in the winter time. In the summer time, the circulated airflow of the room is cooled, and in the winter time it is heated in the supply air unit's heat exchanger.
  • the flow of fresh air induces the circulated airflow to flow from the room through the heat exchanger into the mixing chamber.
  • the FI patent application 20060035 has presented a supply air unit and a method for controlling the airflow rate.
  • the supply air unit comprises a supply air chamber, a heat exchanger, with which the circulated airflow conducted from the room space to be air-conditioned can be either cooled or heated, and a mixing chamber.
  • a flow of fresh air is conducted from the supply air chamber through nozzles or a nozzle gap into the mixing chamber, in which the supply airflow induces the circulated airflow from the room to flow through the heat exchanger into the mixing chamber.
  • the flow of fresh air and the circulated airflow are combined, whereupon the combined airflow is conducted from the mixing chamber's outlet opening into the room space to be air-conditioned.
  • the supply air unit also comprises an additional air opening, which is arranged on the flow path of the fresh airflow, separately from the nozzles or the nozzle gap, and a control device in connection with it for controlling the total rate of fresh airflow to be supplied from the supply air unit into the air-conditioned room space.
  • the additional air opening can be arranged in such a way that the fresh airflow will discharge from it either directly into the air-conditioned room space or into the mixing chamber.
  • the FI Patents 117682 B , 118236 B present supply air units comprising a supply air chamber, a heat exchanger, with which the circulated airflow conducted from the air-conditioned room space can be either cooled or heated, and a mixing chamber.
  • the fresh airflow is conducted from the supply air chamber through nozzles or a nozzle gap into the mixing chamber, in which the supply airflow induces the circulated airflow from the room to flow through the heat exchanger into the mixing chamber.
  • the fresh airflow and the circulated airflow are combined, whereupon the combined airflow is conducted from the mixing chamber's outlet opening into the air-conditioned room space.
  • the FI Patent 113798 B for its part presents a supply air unit, which comprises a supply air chamber and a mixing chamber.
  • a fresh airflow is conducted from the supply air chamber through nozzles or a nozzle gap into the mixing chamber, in which the supply airflow induces the circulated airflow from the room to flow into the mixing chamber.
  • the fresh airflow and the circulated airflow are combined, whereupon the combined airflow is conducted from the mixing chamber's outlet opening into the air-conditioned room space.
  • the publications present various systems for controlling the induction ratio and for controlling either the rate of fresh airflow to be supplied into the mixing chamber or the rate of circulated airflow to be conducted from the air-conditioned room space into the mixing chamber.
  • the supply air unit according to the invention is characterized by the features presented in the characterizing part of claim 1.
  • the supply air unit there is at least one airflow controller, through which an additional airflow is conducted from the supply air chamber into at least one suction chamber, from which the bypass flow of fresh air is guided into at least one mixing chamber.
  • the airflow controller is used to control the additional airflow into the suction chamber, whereby the rate of air to be supplied from the supply air unit into the air-conditioned room space can be controlled within definite limits without having to exchange the nozzles of the supply air unit.
  • a certain minimum airflow rate must be conducted all the time through the nozzles, because this minimum rate is necessary in order to induce the circulated airflow and in this way to achieve a sufficient cooling and heating effect.
  • Using the airflow controller it is possible to increase the supply air unit's total airflow rate 1-6 times compared with the minimum airflow rate.
  • the additional airflow When the additional airflow is conducted into the suction chamber, the rate of circulated airflow to be conducted from the air-conditioned room space into the suction chamber is reduced, but the airflow rate to be conducted from the suction chamber into the mixing chamber remains almost constant. Should the temperature of the additional airflow differ from the temperature of the circulated airflow of the air-conditioned room space, the additional airflow can be used for controlling the cooling or heating effect.
  • the total fresh airflow rate to be supplied from the supply air unit into the air-conditioned room space (the fresh airflow supplied from the supply air unit's nozzles into the mixing chamber + the additional airflow supplied from the supply air chamber into the suction chamber and from this into the mixing chamber) can be increased or reduced without affecting the rate of combined airflow conducted from the mixing chamber into the room space and in this way the flow pattern. Besides, in this manner the additional airflow is distributed evenly through the suction chamber.
  • the solution according to the invention can very well be used, for example, in a situation where a constant pressure is maintained on the supply air side by using a constant pressure controller.
  • An advantageous embodiment of the invention in connection with the airflow controller uses an air-permeable fabric, through which the bypass flow of fresh air is conducted into the suction chamber.
  • the airflow velocity is reduced to a considerably lower level than the velocity of the airflow discharging from the nozzles.
  • the lower velocity of the airflow for its part results in a lower noise level.
  • Due to the lower velocity of the airflow a higher pressure may be used in the supply air chamber.
  • the supply air unit's air distribution characteristics are determined based on the nozzle airflow and a possible induction controller located in the outlet opening of the mixing chamber.
  • the supply air unit also comprises at least one heat exchanger.
  • the additional air to be supplied through the suction chamber and the heat exchanger into the mixing chamber can be after-heated or after-cooled in the heat exchanger. This may be required, for example, in a situation where the supply air unit is located in a negotiation room, where a large supply airflow may cause over- or under-cooling of the negotiation premises.

  • the control cylinder 93 rotates on the outer surface of the bottom cylinder's 91 b casing in the manner indicated by arrow S1, whereby it is possible to control the overlapping between the control cylinder's 93 openings 93a and the bottom cylinder's 91b openings 91a, that is, how much airflow there will be through the airflow controller 90.
  • a threaded bolt 94 extends, which fits into a threaded hole 92 in the bottom cylinder's 91b cover plate 91c, 92.
  • the threaded bolt 94 can be used to lock the control cylinder 93 to the bottom cylinder 91b in a desired position.
  • an air-permeable fabric 95 can also be mounted, which preferably is gauze.
  • An additional airflow L3 is conducted from supply air chamber 10 through the opening 120a in the supply air chamber's 10 ceiling panel 12 into the inner bottom cylinder 91b and then further through the air-permeable fabric 95, the bottom cylinder's 91b openings 91a and the control cylinder's 93 openings 93a into suction chamber 40.
  • Figure 10 shows a fourth airflow controller solution according to the invention.
  • the airflow controller 100 comprises an actuator 110, which controls a closing device 115, which preferably is a valve disc.
  • Actuator 110 is fastened by a fastening band 105 to the supply air unit's ceiling panel 12, that is, to the suction chamber's 40 roof panel.
  • the closing device 105 closes and opens an opening 12a in ceiling panel 12.
  • the actuator 110 may be, for example, a step motor, which is controlled by a control unit 120 located in the air-conditioned room space. From the control unit 120 located in the air-conditioned room space it is possible to carry on a step-less control of the supply air unit's additional airflow L3.
  • Figure 10 does not show any fabric in connection with the airflow controller 100, but it is of course possible to add to the airflow controller 100, for example, the fabric solution 75 presented in the embodiment shown in Figure 7 .
  • the suction chamber 10 has a one-piece top section 10a and an outer section 10b1, 10b2 outside the mixing chambers 20a, 20b. Both in connection with a square and a round supply air unit the supply air chamber 10 may also be formed by a one-piece top section 10a only.
  • the supply air chamber's 10 inner side walls 14a, 14b hereby extend to the roof panel 11 and form the supply air unit's outer side walls.
  • the supply air connection 16 may be located in the supply air chamber's 10 outer side wall 14a, 14b or in the roof panel 11.
  • the suction chamber 10 has a one-piece top section 10a and an outer section 10b outside the mixing chamber 20.
  • the supply air chamber 10 may also be formed by a one-piece top section 10a only.
  • the supply air chamber's 10 inner side wall 14a hereby extends to the roof panel 11 and forms the supply air unit's outer side wall.
  • the supply air connection 16 may be located in the supply air chamber's 10 outer side wall 14a or in the roof panel 11.
  • FIG. 3 there are three airflow controllers 70a, 70b, 70c and in Figure 4 there is one airflow controller 70.
  • the number of airflow controllers is determined by the rate of fresh air required.
  • the fresh airflow L1 is supplied from the supply air chamber 10 through nozzles 60, 60a, 60b into mixing chambers 20, 20a, 20b.
  • the nozzles 60, 60a, 60b can be replaced by a nozzle gap, through which the fresh airflow L1 is conducted from supply air chamber 10 into the mixing chambers 20, 20a, 20b.
