Abstract
There is provided a heat exchange system that comprises a heat exchanger, a duct and a diverging element. The duct is adapted to guide an airflow to the heat exchanger. The diverging element is arranged in the duct. The diverging element is adapted to split the airflow into a first airflow part along a first flow path and a second airflow part along a second flow path. The diverging element is adapted to diverge at least one of the first airflow part and the second airflow part. The second flow path encloses the first flow path. Further, there is provided a HVAC-system for a vehicle comprising the heat exchange system. Yet further, there is provided a vehicle comprising the heat exchange system.
Claims13
A heat exchange system, comprising:
- a heat exchanger;
- a duct;
- a diverging element,
- wherein the duct is adapted to guide an airflow to the heat exchanger,
- wherein the diverging element is arranged in the duct,
- wherein the diverging element is adapted to split the airflow into a first airflow part along a first flow path and a second airflow part along a second flow path,
