Abstract

In a method of eliminating eddy current formation in the corners of spaces with laminar air flow the corners are covered by an inclined, perforated surface (38) through which air is exhausted or delivered. Apparatus for eliminating such eddy current formation includes an air exhaust or delivery baffle (36) with an inclined, perforated surface, arranged in corners where it is desired to eliminate eddy current formation.

Description

I|I\ ll I mi 512 255 2 Syftet med föreliggande uppfinning är att anvisa en ge- nerellt användbar, enkel anordning för att eliminera vir- velbildning i hörn i utrymmen där man önskar laminär luft- strömning.The object of the present invention is to provide a generally usable, simple device for eliminating vortex formation in corners in spaces where laminar air flow is desired.

Dessa syften uppnås med en anordning enligt patenkravet Avsugnings- eller utblásningsrampen vid anordningen enligt uppfinningen kan vara utformad med plan eller krökt, perforerad yta. I förstnämnda fallet år optimal lutningsvinkel hos ytan 30° - 45° i förhållande till den laminära strömningsriktningen. Ge- nom att använda en krökt yta kan rengöring av rampen underlättas och ytterligare spridning av luft uppnås vid utblåsning av luft genom rampen.These objects are achieved with a device according to the patent claim. The suction or exhaust ramp of the device according to the invention can be designed with a flat or curved, perforated surface. In the former case, the optimal angle of inclination of the surface is 30 ° - 45 ° in relation to the laminar flow direction. By using a curved surface, cleaning of the ramp can be facilitated and further spread of air is achieved by blowing air through the ramp.

Vid anordningen enligt uppfinningen kan rampen användas för eliminering av virvelbildning genom såväl avsugning som utblàs- ning av luft.In the device according to the invention, the ramp can be used for eliminating vortex formation by both suction and exhaust of air.

Såsom exempel valda utföringsformer kommer nu att beskrivas närmare med hänvisning till figurerna 6 och 7.Exemplary embodiments will now be described in more detail with reference to Figures 6 and 7.

.I figurerna 1-5 illustreras, såsom beksrivits ovan, olika exempel på hur man tidiga-re sökt reducera virvelbildning i hörn i utrymmen där laminärt luftflöde önskas, figur 6 visar anordningen enligt uppfinningen använd för att eliminera virvel- bildning vid ett arbetsbord och figur 7 visar anordningen enligt uppfinningen använd för att eliminera virvelbildning vid luft- tillförsel genom taket till ett utrymme.Figures 1-5 illustrate, as described above, various examples of how one has previously sought to reduce vortex formation in corners in spaces where laminar airflow is desired, Figure 6 shows the device according to the invention used to eliminate vortex formation at a work table and Figure 7 shows the device according to the invention used to eliminate vortex formation during air supply through the roof to a space.

I figur 6 visas en laminärflödeskabin 30, som tillförs ett laminärt luftflöde genom kabinens tak 32.Figure 6 shows a laminar flow cabin 30, which is supplied with a laminar air flow through the roof 32 of the cabin.

Inuti kabinen 30 är ett arbetsbord 34 anordnat. Vid bordets 34 ovansida, runt tre av dess kanter är en avsugningsramp 36 med en snedstàlld, perforerad yta 38 anordnad. Hörnen mellan bords- skiva och kabinvägg kommer således att överbryggas av den perfo- rerade ytan 38 genom vilken luft avsugs från utrymmet ovanför arbetsbordet 34. Avsugningsrampen 36 är i sin tur ansluten till, ej visade, anordningar för bortledning av luften. Med denna av- sugningsramp 36 uppnår man effektiv eliminering av luftvirvlar vid arbetsbordets 34 ovansida.Inside the cabin 30 a work table 34 is arranged. At the upper side of the table 34, around three of its edges, a suction ramp 36 with an inclined, perforated surface 38 is arranged. The corners between the table top and the cabin wall will thus be bridged by the perforated surface 38 through which air is extracted from the space above the work table 34. The extraction ramp 36 is in turn connected to devices (not shown) for discharging the air. With this suction ramp 36, efficient elimination of air vortices at the top of the work table 34 is achieved.

I figur 7 visas anordningen enligt uppfinningen använd vid 512 255 3 ett tak genom vilket ett laminärt luftflöde tillförs utrymmet 40 under taket.Figure 7 shows the device according to the invention used at a roof through which a laminar air flow is supplied to the space 40 under the roof.

Genom taket tillförs luft lämpligen genom s k HEPA-filter 42. Hörnomràdet 44 är emellertid av byggnadstekniska skäl ej tillgängligt för lufttillförseln. Detta ger upphov till vir- velbildning i hörnet som stör den laminära luftströmningen i utrymmet 40k Denna virvelbildning kan elimineras med anordningen enligt uppfinningen genom att en luftutblàsningsramp installeras i hörnet mellan taket 42 och väggen 46, sä att rampens snedställ- da, perforerade yta 48 kommer att täcka hörnet. Luftutblásnings- rampen är så utformad och installerad att en viss del av den genom HEPA-filtren 42 utblásta luften leds in i rampen och ut- läses i utrymmet 40 genom den snedställda perforerade ytan 48, varvid man även från hörnomràdet fàr ett huvudsakligen laminärt luftflöde.Air is suitably supplied through the roof through a so-called HEPA filter 42. However, the corner area 44 is not available for the air supply for technical reasons. This gives rise to vortex formation in the corner which interferes with the laminar air flow in the space 40k. This vortex formation can be eliminated with the device according to the invention by installing an air blow-out ramp in the corner between the roof 42 and the wall 46, to cover the corner. The air blow-out ramp is designed and installed in such a way that a certain part of the air blown out by the HEPA filters 42 is led into the ramp and read out into the space 40 through the inclined perforated surface 48, whereby a mainly laminar air flow is obtained from the corner area.

Uppfinningen har beskrivits ovan i samband med tvä till- lämpningar, men tekniken enligt uppfinningen är sàsom nämnts ovan generellt användbar för att eliminera virvelbildning i hörn i utrymmen med laminärt flöde.The invention has been described above in connection with two applications, but the technique according to the invention is, as mentioned above, generally useful for eliminating vortex formation in corners in spaces with laminar flow.
