DGV variable geometry diffuser DIMENSIONS IN mm. Description DGV round, variable-geometry diffuser constructed of steel plate. The standard finish is RAL 9010 white paint. By special order, the diffuser can be painted in any RAL colour. Operation The DGV diffuser is composed of two concentric modules. The inner module is moveable, and can be moved manually or by a servo drive. This sliding inner module was designed such that, when moved, it simply and efficiently changes the direction of the outlet airflow. The flow direction may be horizontal (for cold air) or vertical (for hot air) as...

General information - The DGV-type diffusers have a variable geometry and were designed to meet the air conditioning needs of areas which, depending on the thermal loads during the various seasons of the year, require cold or hot isothermal air. By changing the positioning of an internal device, the direction of the outlet airflow is changed, thereby achieving a horizontal or vertical throw, as well as adjustment within several intermediate positions. - The DGV-type diffuser was designed by the Research & Development Department of KOOLAIR, S.A., and tested and calibrated in our own...

Selection in a sample project Conditions • Hdif = 6.0 m • Hzo = 1.8 m • A = 5m • Q = 800m3/h • Ti = 35°C • AT = 15°C • Tr = 20°C • Lw < 40 dB (A) • P < 30 Pa • Vz = 0.25 m/s Symbols • Hdif = Distance from the supply mouth of the diffuser to the floor. • Hzo = Height of occupied area. • A = Distance between diffuser axes. • Q = Air flow in each diffuser. • Ti = Air supply temperature. • Tr = Room temperature. • AT = Difference between supply and room temperature. • Lw = Sound power. • P = Pressure drop. • Vz = Maximum velocity in occupied area. The above data are used for the selection,...

Step 1. Quick selection tips for the model Based on the flow rate and the distance, Hdiff, from the diffuser supply outlet to the floor, the 250 or 315 models can be chosen. Step 2. Verification by noise level and pressure drop. The data are obtained from the flow rate and the diffuser model.

Comparison Thus, the charts indicate that the selected diffuser is DGV 315. Step 3. Determination of the temperature correction factor (Cy). It is necessary to know if the diffuser throw is within the operating limits. The next step (nº4) , is used to determine if the diffuser (in terms of throw) meets the needs required. This is determined by the temperature differenc ∆T (°C) and the maximum velocity in the occupied area. Vz (m/s), both specified in the conditions of the selection in the sample project. In this case, the factor «Cy» = 0,8 Step 4. Verification of throw within the operating...

Once the value of «Ac», is determined, the following figure shows that the diffuser is within the operating limits (within the minimum and maximum lines). Likewise, it allows us to find the stroke (in mm) of the servo motor shaft that will keep the central core fixed at a convenient height, in order to ensure the performance for which it has been selected. Step 5. Determination of the correction factor to calculate the minimum distance between diffusers. This factor is known as Ca. and is obtained from the following chart, using the air flow per diffuser (Q m3/h) and the maximum velocity in...

Series DGV Where the factor Ca = 3.8 from the following equation, yielding the following minimum distance, A, between diffusers: A = Ca / (Hdif - H zo) A = 3,8 / (6 - 1,8) A = 0,9 m As in the selection example, the projected distance between diffusers, A, is 5 m and the minimum distance recommended by the chart is 0.9 m. Therefore, the selection is correct. Conclusion Diffuser selected: DGV-315 Air flow rate: 800 m3/h Pressure loss: 24 Pa Sound power: 38 dB (A) Temperature difference AT: 15°C Maximum velocity in occupied area: 0,25 m/s. Stroke of the electrical servo drive: 50 mm.

Where Ac is the vertical throw over the floor. The stroke (in mm) of the diffuser disc required to obtain the specified throw is shown on the curves. The minimum and maximum values are the limits between which the throw can be changed.
