ABSTRACT:
An apparatus (10) for an HVAC system that provides air at a controllable temperature into a passenger compartment of a vehicle comprises a housing (20) defining a chamber (70). The chamber (70) has a first inlet (50) through which cold air enters the chamber and a second inlet (76) through which warm air enters the chamber. The housing (20) further includes at least one outlet (56, 58, 130, 132) in fluid communication with the chamber (70) and for directing air into the passenger compartment in the vehicle. At least one airflow diverter (90, 100) is disposed in the chamber (70) for causing a portion of the cold air flowing through the first inlet (50) to mix in the chamber with the warm air flowing through the second inlet (76).
