  • a heat exchanger assembly 24 is arranged within the base pan 22.
  • the heat exchanger assembly 24 includes two heat exchanger coils oriented in a V or A-shape.
  • a heat exchanger assembly having another shape, such as a W-shape for example is also contemplated herein.

  • the top cover assembly 30 includes at least one fan assembly 32 and a grille or fan guard 34 associated with each fan assembly 32. It will be appreciated that the grilles or fan guards 34 illustrated in FIGS. 1 , 2A, and 2B are of the configuration commonly used today (i.e., wire grilles made of metal). Although two fan assemblies 32 are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that a coil unit having a single fan assembly, or more than two fan assemblies are contemplated herein.
  • Each fan assembly 32 is configured to draw ambient air radially inward and across the heat exchanger assembly 24. The heated air downstream from the heat exchanger assembly 24 is then drawn axially across the one or more fan assemblies 32 and discharged upwardly through the openings in the fan guard 34, to be described in more detail below.
  • a coil unit 20 having a specific configuration is illustrated and described herein, it should be understood that a coil unit 20 having another configuration is also within the scope of the disclosure.
  • a fan assembly 32 of the top cover assembly 30 includes a housing 36 and a fan rotor or impeller 38 located within the housing 36.

  • the motor 48 may be oriented generally vertically, such that an axis of rotation (not shown) of the motor 48 is arranged parallel to or coaxial with the fan axis X.
  • a fan assembly 32 having another configuration, or another type of fans, such as a mixed flow fan for example are within the scope of the present disclosure.
  • the integrated diffuser grille 34 (i.e., to replace the traditional wire grille used today, shown in FIGS. 1 , 2A, and 2B ) is illustrated. It will be appreciated that the integrated diffuser grille 34 may be referred to herein as a grille 34. As shown in FIG. 3 , the grille 34 includes a hub 50, a stack diffuser wall or outer wall 52, and a plurality of spokes 54 extending radially between and connected to an exterior of the hub 50 and an interior of the stack diffuser wall 52.
  • the stack diffuser wall 52 may be able to be positioned in overlapping arrangement with the housing 36 of the fan assembly 32 (shown in FIG. 2A ), such as an exterior surface thereof for example.

  • a stacking line of each spoke 54 is defined by the mid-chord point of the airfoil shaped cross-section taken over the radial span of the spoke 54.
  • the stacking line of at least one of the plurality of spokes 54 is substantially straight.
  • implementations where the stacking line of one or more of the spokes 54 has another configuration, such as a non-linear configuration for example, are also envisaged.
  • the airflow A moving through the fan assembly 32 towards the grille 34 generally has both an axial component, a radial component, and a tangential component.
  • the plurality of spokes 54 are configured as outlet guide vanes. Accordingly, the configuration of the radial spokes 54 may be selected to straighten the flow exiting from the fan assembly 32, thereby transforming swirl kinetic energy in the airflow A into static pressure rises across the spokes 54.
  • the spokes 54 may include lean or sweep in the circumferential or axial directions. Parameters of the spokes 54 that may be controlled to diffuse or straighten the air flow A include, but are not limited to spoke pitch angle, chamber angle, and chord.
