Air distribution systems Linear whirl outlet WL... DS 0 E 1.013
Preliminary remarks Mode of operation The linear whirl outlet generates turbulent mixing ventilation. It can be installed on or in a wall or ceiling. Applications are rooms with high thermal comfort and acoustic requirements (e.g. offices, restaurants and assembly rooms) as well as lobbies and entrance halls and also workshops and production facilities in trade and industry. Construction design The major component of the whirl outlet is the discharge element 1 made of galvanized sheet metal. It has several supply air discharge chambers. Connection to the supply air system can be made either via a connection box with spigot or by direct installation in the bottom of a supply air duct 6 (mainly for use in trade and industry). The connection box is optionally available with acoustic lining. As standard the connection spigot is placed on the air discharge side; it is optionally available with volume flow damper (adjustable from room). On customer's request the connection spigot can also be placed on the opposite side or on top of the outlet. The linear whirl outlet is available in three sizes. The dimensions of the discharge chambers and inlet openings 3 are matched to generate two air jets whirling against each other on discharge. Jet stability and induction effect are high. Tangential air patterns with high penetration depth are formed. Sizes and WL- can be installed directly under the room ceiling. With size, the discharge chambers must be placed at least 1 m from the ceiling. The discharge chambers are designed for air jet discharge at an upward incline of about 1. At larger distances from the ceiling, this increases the jet stability and prevents a downflow to the occupied zone in cooling mode. 1 7 1 3 WL- 3 6 7 1 Figure 1: Linear whirl outlet top: with connection box bottom: built onto a supply air duct On request, the bottom of the discharge element can be additionally fitted with twist outlets 7 with sharp-edged exits. This enables to discharge part of the supply air vertically downwards.

Layout Comfort criteria 1) The outlet layout must comply with the maximum allowable indoor air velocities in the occupied zone in cooling mode. The indoor air velocity depends on the cooling load that is to be removed from the room. The maximum specific cooling capacity q depends on the discharge height and the maximum allowable indoor air velocity u (Graph 1). First, the maximum specific volume flow rate V Sp max is determined in relation to the indoor air velocity u, the discharge height and the maximum temperature difference supply air to return air DJ max using Graph 1. To comply with the maximum allowable indoor air velocities, the volume flow rate supplied to the room V Sp tats may not exceed the maximum specific volume flow rate V Sp max. On the basis of the maximum specific volume flow rate V Sp max and the jet length L, the coverage width E and the minimum air outlet spacing A min can be determined using the following equations: V A E = A min = E L A V Sp max L Temperature difference max 6 K K 00 0 0 1 Maximum specific volume flow rate V Sp max in l/(s m ) Maximum specific cooling capacity q in W/m Discharge height in m 0 0 0 0.1 0. 0.3 Maximum allowable indoor air velocity u in m/s Graph 1: Max. specific volume flow rate Key for layout: E = coverage width in m L = jet length in m (see page 3) L A = air outlet length in m V A = supply air volume flow rate per air outlet in V A max = max. volume flow rate per air outlet in depending on discharge height V Sp max = max. specific volume flow rate per m of floor area in l/(s m ) V Sp tats = actual specific volume flow rate per m of floor area in l/(s m ) V A Str = max. volume flow rate per air outlet in depending on maximum possible jet length DJ max = max. temperature difference supply air to return air in K q = max. specific cooling capacity in W/m = discharge height in m A min = minimum spacing required between two air outlets in m u = max. allowable indoor air velocity in m/s L WA = sound power level in db(a) ref. -1 W Dp t = total pressure drop in Pa. 3 6 V A V A A min L A Linear whirl outlet L Figure : Coverage width E, jet length L and minimum spacing A min Size WL- E E Air outlet Sound power level L W in db ref. -1 W volume flow L WA Octave band centre frequency in z rate V A m 3 /h db(a) 63 1 1 K K K K 70 70 0 0 0 30 0 30 3 3 00 00 00 1 00 1 Connection box 0 3 3 6 33 3 6 3 6 without acoustic lining 3 3 1 3 3 30 30 6 3 30 37 3 3 3 1 3 1 3 6 3 3 3 3 0 3 37 0 3 3 3 0 0 7 3 3 3 3 3 33 37 7 3 0 7 3 16 3 3 17 37 33 1 1 7 1 1 6 1 7 3 3 Connection box 16 0 16 0 1 1 1 3 13 1 1 with acoustic lining 1) See our brochure ref.
