  • Patent number: 8650893
    Abstract: A vapor-compression air conditioning system comprising a blower positioned in a return air flow path from a conditioned space, a reheat heat exchanger positioned in the return air flow path and downstream from the blower, a system reversing valve fluidly coupled to the reheat heat exchanger, and a refrigerant flow sequencer interposed the system reversing valve and the reheat heat exchanger. A method of manufacturing an air conditioning system is also provided.

  • Publication number: 20070197156
    Abstract: A housing cooperates with an air mover rotating about a rotation axis to move air received from an approach to an exhaust. The approach is generally oriented about a direction intersecting the housing at upstream and downstream limits. The housing presents an interior surface establishing radii between the axis and the surface. The radii have a generally constant radial value across a width in planes containing the axis in a first zone between the downstream limit and a first locus, and in a second zone between a second locus and the exhaust. The radii vary between a smallest and a largest radius across the width in planes containing the axis in a variance zone upstream of the axis. The smallest radius is less than the radial value at the first and second loci. The largest radius is larger than the radial value at one of the first and second loci.

  • Patent number: 4723599
    Abstract: In this heat exchanger, an improvement comprises the following. The fin plates each have louvered portions interposing the aligned openings in the fin plates. The louvered portions in each fin plate define a nominal plane and include a plurality of louvers and a base. The base has base portions including rise portions and flank portions, three each. The rise portions and flank portions alternate with each other in a transverse direction across the width of the fin plate. The rise portions and flank portions form three peaks, which are a central peak and two outer peaks. The peaks are raised in a first direction perpendicular to the nominal plane. The rise portions and flank portions further form two valleys in the opposite, second direction perpendicular to the nominal plane. The valleys are spaced from each other and are each between the central peak and an outer peak. The rise portions are substantially parallel to each other and intersect the nominal plane at a first acute angle.
