Abstract
An air guiding element (10) for an aircraft air conditioning system comprises a housing base body (12), in which an air inlet opening (14) and an air outlet opening (16) are constructed. A first flow control element (28) is arranged in the housing base body (12), relative to the direction of the air flow through the air guiding element (10), upstream of the air outlet opening (16). The first flow control element (28) comprises a plurality of air guiding channels (30) which are surrounded by a noise-absorbing material (32).

Air guiding element (10) for an aircraft air conditioning system comprising:
- a housing base body (12), in which an air inlet opening (14) and an air outlet opening (16) are constructed,
- a first flow control element (28) arranged in the housing base body (12), relative to the direction of air flow through the air guiding element (10), upstream of the air outlet opening (16), the first flow control element (28) comprising a plurality of air guiding channels (30) surrounded by a noise-absorbing material (32),
- a diffusor region (18) arranged in the housing base body (12) upstream of the first flow control element, and
- a recess (24) formed in the diffusor region (18), the recess (24) having a base face (26) recessed relative to an outer surface of the housing base body (12) in a direction toward an interior of the housing base body (12), the base face (26) having at least three sides each separate from and extending parallel to a different peripheral edge of the housing base body (12).
