“…Therefore, the promotion and control of turbulent mixing of hot and cold airflows are key subjects in the development of the HVAC unit. Active methods that need external power inputs, such as small jets, are quite effective to the mixing promotion/control of two flows (Bonnet, et al, 2008, Hirota, et al, 2008, but the passive methods without any external power inputs are required in the practical application to the HVAC unit for the automobile air-conditioning system. With these points as background, we conducted an experimental study on the promotion and control of turbulent mixing of hot and cold airflows in the T-junction with rectangular cross sections.…”
