A heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) unit may include a supply fan section having a supply fan disposed therein to force a supply air flow through a discharge plenum of the HVAC unit. The HVAC unit may also include an economizer positioned adjacent the supply fan section to receive an outdoor air flow and direct the outdoor air flow into the supply fan section.

The present invention relates to a decentralized hybrid ventilation. The ventilation system comprises a housing having an inlet channel and an outlet channel. A first fan is arranged in the inlet channel for providing an airflow into the room and a second fan is arranged in the outlet channel for providing an airflow out of the room. A heat exchanger and filters are arranged in said channels for exchanging heat between and for filtrating air flowing into the room and air flowing out of the room. Furthermore, the ventilation system comprises a first and a second service door each providing, when open, an opening between the room and one of said channels to diverge the airflow from primarily flowing through the air filters and/or heat exchanger. The ventilation system also comprises a control system configured for switching between different modes of operations.

The present disclosure relates to a heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system including an enclosure that is divided by a partition extending between a first panel and a second panel of the enclosure such that the partition defines an outdoor air flow path and a return air flow path through the enclosure. The partition includes an opening extending between the outdoor airflow path and the return airflow path. The HVAC system also includes an energy recovery wheel that translatably extends through the opening and is positioned within the outdoor air flow path and the return air flow path. The energy recovery wheel is disposed within the enclosure at an oblique angle relative to the outdoor air flow path and the return air flow path.

An air treatment device (1) and a method for heating of aft, in a heating mode, at an air handling unit (2), which comprises a heat recovery device (3). The device further comprises a heat pump (6), comprising an evaporator (7), arranged in a first air stream (4), in the flow direction, after the heat recovery device (3), and a condenser (8) arranged in a second air stream (5), in the flow direction, after the heat recovery device (3). The device further comprises an auxiliary heater (9) for supplying, in addition to the recovered energy, external heat energy. The auxiliary heater (9) is positioned in the first air stream (4), in the flow direction, after the heat recovery device (3) and before the evaporator (7) for heating and thereby the heat pump (6) operation is maintained and a better total efficiency for the plant is achieved.

A heat exchange device includes: a case, a fan provided inside the case and having a fan air outlet and a fan air inlet, a heat exchange element provided inside the case, a case air port formed in the case, and an adapter connected to the case air port at one end thereof, the adapter including more than one pipe connecting portions with different diameters, the pipe connecting portion closest to the case air port being a first pipe connecting portion, the pipe connecting portion farthest from case air port being a second pipe connecting portion; the diameter of the first pipe connecting portion is larger than the diameter of the second pipe connecting portion, and a thermal insulation component is provided in the adapter and has an air passage therein for passing air therethrough. The disclosure is advantageous in preventing occurrence of condensation and improving product safety.

The present invention provides stretchable laminates with a flat appearance on the visible surface. The laminates comprise a textile layer, a functional layer, and a plurality of elastic fibers. The plurality of elastic fibers are in a substantially parallel arrangement and the internal distance between adjacent fibers does not exceed the maximum fiber spacing, which depends on laminate thickness in a stretched state. Also provided are garments and footwear comprising the stretchable laminates and methods of producing the stretchable laminates.

A ventilator comprising a housing comprising a first flowpath extending from a first inlet to a first outlet, and a second flowpath extending from a second inlet to a second outlet. The housing further comprises a partition defining a first chamber therein. The ventilator further comprises a second chamber. The first flow path extends through the first chamber and the second chamber, and the second flowpath extends through the first chamber. The ventilator further includes a movable damper disposed in the first flowpath and configured to apportion a quantity of a first fluid flowing therein between the first and second chambers. The second chamber and the movable damper are configured in a removable part adapted to be fitted in place of a cover part of the housing of the ventilator.

A rooftop HVAC unit includes a cabinet, an energy recovery wheel, dampers, and a controller. The energy recovery wheel is configured to be mounted within the cabinet. The energy recovery wheel is configured to transfer heat between an outdoor air stream and a return air stream when in an operational mode, and is further configured not to transfer heat between the outdoor air stream and the return air stream when in a bypass mode. The dampers can direct the outdoor air stream and return air stream through the rooftop HVAC unit, either through the energy recovery wheel or around the energy recovery wheel. The controller is configured to adjust the dampers based on a selection between the operational mode and bypass mode of the energy recovery wheel.

The present invention provides stretchable laminates with a flat appearance on the visible surface. The laminates comprise a textile layer, a functional layer, and a plurality of elastic fibers. The plurality of elastic fibers are in a substantially parallel arrangement and the internal distance between adjacent fibers does not exceed the maximum fiber spacing, which depends on laminate thickness in a stretched state. Also provided are garments and footwear comprising the stretchable laminates and methods of producing the stretchable laminates.

A heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) unit includes an energy recovery wheel, a first exhaust fan configured to draw a first air flow across the energy recovery wheel and discharge the first air flow from the HVAC unit, a second exhaust fan configured to draw a second air flow across the energy recovery wheel and discharge the second air flow from the HVAC unit, and a controller configured to operate the first exhaust fan and the second exhaust fan in an economizer mode and configured to operate the first exhaust fan and suspend operation of the second exhaust fan in an energy recovery mode.
