    摘要: A heat exchanger for heat exchange between at least two fluids includes a plurality of heat exchange elements each having at least one fluid-guiding path for conducting at least one of the fluids through. The heat exchanger has a cylindrical shape or substantially cylindrical shape with a cylinder axis around which the heat exchange elements are adjacently arranged. At lease a region of each of the heat exchange elements forms an outline structure at least substantially like one of a triangular cylinder, a trapezoidal cylinder, a circle-sector cylinder, and an annulus-sector cylinder. As a result of adjacent arrangement of the heat exchange elements, the heat exchanger or at least a region of the heat exchanger has an outline structure at least substantially like one of a polygonal cylinder, a polygonal hollow cylinder, a circular cylinder, and annular cylinder. The cylindrical shape of the heat exchanger may alternatively be a cone frustum. The heat exchanger may be incorporated into an air device.

A protective screen carried on a front side of the cover plate over the airflow opening. An angle bracket carried in an elongated slot disposed in said cover plate having a first portion extending parallel along the rear side of the cover plate, and a second portion extending transverse to the front side of the cover plate above the airflow opening. A flexible polymer foam sheet carried on the rear side of the cover plate for conforming to a vent opening in a building foundation wall so that an airtight seal is formed against the vent opening. A fan speed controller adjusting a desired speed of the fan and airflow through the airflow opening.

    摘要: An automated cooling system and method for energy efficient use with a building structure by adjusting operational parameters is provided. The automated cooling system can adjust operational parameters in response to conditions (e.g., temperature, humidity) detected by sensors located at one or more strategically selected locations inside or outside the building structure. The automated cooling system can ramp speeds of a motor that rotates fan blades in response to changes in the air temperature in the building structure so as to maintain a desired temperature without switching on and off the motor to preserve fan blade inertia.

    摘要: A ventilation grille having a trim ring and a plate releasably connected to the trim ring. The trim ring defines an aperture allowing connection of the trim ring to a main housing of a ventilation system defining an internal region in which a blower is located. The plate is releasably connected to the trim ring to allow access to the trim ring aperture for connection of the trim ring to the main housing or blower and disconnection of the trim ring from the main housing or blower.

    摘要: There is described a mobile device and method for commissioning air intake control of an environmental control system. A communication component receives multiple air measurements from an air flow sensor, in which the air flow sensor is positioned in a duct compartment of the environmental control system. The processor generates multiple air flow tables based on the multiple air measurements, multiple fan speeds associated with the environmental control system, and multiple damper positions associated with the environmental control system. The communication component transmits the multiple air flow tables to an air intake controller of the environmental control system.

    摘要: An in-vehicle fan system for use in a vehicle or home comprises a main body and a fan connected to the main body. The in-vehicle fan system further comprises a shroud arranged over the fan and connected to a first surface of the main body. A filter housing is connected to a second surface of the main body of the in-vehicle fan unit. The in-vehicle fan unit further comprises a first flange extending from or near a first end of the main body and a second flange extending from or near a second end of the main body. The in-vehicle cooling system may allow for the operator of the vehicle to cool the interior of the vehicle without running the engine of the vehicle.

    摘要: An air moving device includes a housing member, an impeller assembly, and a nozzle assembly. The nozzle assembly can include one or more angled vanes set an angle with respect to a central axis of the air moving device. The air moving device can output a column of moving air having an oblong and/or rectangular cross-section. A dispersion pattern of the column of moving air upon the floor of an enclosure in which the air moving device is installed can have an oblong and/or rectangular shape. The dimensions of the dispersion pattern may be varied by moving the air moving device toward or away from the floor, and/or by changing the angles of the stator vanes within the nozzle assembly.

    摘要: A tapered flexible conduit and a ventilation system incorporating the same. The conduit is arranged to extend between a register and a fan assembly, such as in a whole house fan (WHF) system. The conduit includes a flexible inner liner surrounded by a flexible outer liner. The flexible inner liner has a length of helically formed wire coupled to a flexible membrane. The flexible outer liner includes an insulative layer to provide acoustic baffling for an airflow established by the fan assembly passing through the conduit. The tapered conduit has a frusto-conical shape along an overall length of the conduit to sealingly engage differently sized inlet and exhaust ports of the register and the fan assembly, respectively. The collapsible nature of the respective inner and outer liners reduces bulk during shipment and accommodates a variety of different configurations during installation.

    摘要: An air purifier system characterized by a housing, a fan, and a motor, as well as a docking ring located at the outer edge of the inlet side of the air purifier system, a seat below the housing, a prefilter or barrier upstream of the fan, and a filter downstream of the fan. An air purifier system characterized by an upstream-to-downstream airflow path that includes an axial fan, a diffuser, and a filter, in that relative order, with an electric motor held along the centerline of the housing by one or more supports and/or guide vanes. A docking ring that facilitates attachment of a screen-like, mesh-like, cloth-like, or paper-like filter to a machine capable of air purification, characterized by having a large hole through which air passes and by attachment to the machine utilizing any tongue and groove system, for which installation and removal of the docking ring is achieved, in whole or in part, by rotation of said docking ring relative to the machine.
