  • Patent number: 11268705
    Abstract: A pneumatic radiation unit according to the present invention includes: a first chamber including a first air discharger configured to discharge air-conditioning air to a second chamber; and the second chamber including a second air discharger configured to discharge the air-conditioning air to a space to be air conditioned, the second chamber being configured to take in the air-conditioning air from the first chamber and discharge the air-conditioning air and radiate heat to the space to be air conditioned. A second aperture ratio of the second air discharger is set to be greater than a first aperture ratio of the first air discharger, or a cross-sectional area of a flow passage of the air-conditioning air in the first chamber is gradually reduced from an upwind side to a downwind side of the flow passage of the air-conditioning air.

  • Patent number: 10808959
    Abstract: An air conditioning system includes: an air conditioner configured to supply air-conditioning air; and an air conditioner control device configured to control the air conditioner. The air conditioner includes: an outside air passage, through which outside air flows; a return air passage, through which return air flows; an outside air heat exchanger; a return air heat exchanger; an outside air vaporizing humidifier configured to humidity the outside air by utilizing evaporation of water; and a return air vaporizing humidifier configured to humidify the return air by utilizing evaporation of water. The air conditioner control device includes a first vaporizing cooler configured to operate at least one of the humidifiers to perform vaporization cooling of the air-conditioning air while preventing the air-conditioning air from exchanging heat with a heat exchange medium.
