Swirl Diffuser Type VDW

Product catalog summary
Description: The document describes the VDW type swirl diffuser, suitable for room heights between 2.60 to 4.00 meters. It features manual adjustment for air discharge direction, allowing flexibility with room layout changes. The diffuser supports air change rates of 30 per hour with temperature differentials ranging from +10K to -10K. It is available with circular or square face plates and can be used for both supply and extract air applications.
Discharge Characteristics: The VDW swirl diffuser allows for manual adjustment of air discharge patterns to accommodate architectural changes. Sizes range from 300x8 to 825x72, with settings for external and internal swirl adjustments.
Construction and Dimensions: The diffusers come in various sizes with circular or square face plates. The plenum box can have side or top entry spigots and may include volume control dampers. The face plate is secured with a center screw and decorative cap.
Materials and Installation: The face plate is made of galvanized sheet steel, powder-coated white, and the control blades are made from polystyrene. Installation can be flush to the ceiling or suspended, with the plenum box supported by wires or brackets.
Nomenclature and Preliminary Selection: Detailed nomenclature for air volume, spacing, and temperature differences is provided. Preliminary selection data for supply air includes maximum and minimum sound power levels and effective outlet areas for each diffuser size.
Acoustic Data: Acoustic data is provided for both supply and extract air, detailing sound power levels and pressure drops for various diffuser sizes. Corrections for volume control damper settings are included.
Aerodynamic Data: Aerodynamic data is included for different diffuser arrangements and temperature quotients. An example of designing a hall with VDW swirl diffusers is provided, detailing air velocity and noise level requirements.
Specifications: Specifications for adjustable swirl diffusers with square or circular face plates are outlined, designed for high induction supply air discharge. These diffusers are suitable for air change rates up to 30 per hour and include a pressed front face with radially angled air discharge sections and adjustable directional air control blades. The plenum box is equipped with circular top or side entry spigots, optional volume control dampers, lip seals, or test connections for reference pressure measurement.
Materials: The face plate is made from galvanized sheet steel, pre-treated and powder-coated white (RAL 9010). Control blades are made from Polystyrol (PS 476 L), available in black (similar to RAL 9005) or white (similar to RAL 9010) upon request. The plenum box is also made from galvanized sheet steel.
Aerodynamic Data: Diffuser arrangements are specified for different sizes (600 x 24, 625 x 54, 825 x 72) with temperature quotient calculations provided. For installations below a continuous ceiling, values for v-H1, v-L, and temperature quotient must be multiplied by 0.71. For external swirl adjustments, diagram values are multiplied by 1.25.
Order Details: Order codes are provided for standard products, with options for circular or square diffusers, supply or extract air, top or side entry plenums, and volume control dampers. An example order for a TROX diffuser is included.
Recommendations: For installations below a continuous ceiling, specific correction factors must be applied to ensure accurate performance. The document emphasizes the importance of adhering to these adjustments for optimal diffuser operation.

Description 2Discharge Characteristics > In addition to the existing range of TROX swirl diffusers, thetype VDW swirl diffuser with manual adjustment has been developed. This enables the direction of discharge to be altered on site to cater for changes in room layout or partitions. Due to the rotary swirling motion of the air discharge, induction of roomair occurs very quickly, resulting in a rapid decay of supply air velocity and temperature differential. Air change rates of 30 per hour can be achieved with supply air temperature differentials of +10K to ז10K. The diffuser can be supplied with...
