  • the first and second stepped portions 16A and 16B are formed in portions where the blow-out air velocity of the impeller 8a is relatively high or portions where the blow-out air velocity is Vs or more, for example, which is the guide wall 10. That is, the blow-out air velocity becomes high at positions corresponding to the downstreams of the first and second inlets 2A and 2B, and the flow in the vicinity of the surface of the guide wall shown in Fig. 6 also collides with the guide wall 10 at a high speed.
  • the larger the surface area of the guide wall 10 with which the high-speed flow is in contact the larger the noise becomes, and a swirl is generated in the vicinities of the step deepest portions of the stepped portions 16A and 16B so that negative pressures are generated in the vicinities.
  • the surface area of the guide wall 10 with which the high-speed flow is in contact is reduced. As a result, the noise can be reduced.
  • first and second stepped portions 16A and 16B extend to the rotary shaft direction L, respectively, and are disposed on the whole surface, for example, of a portion considered to be collided by the high-speed flow.
  • the blow-out air velocity is distributed in the rotary shaft direction L, and the sizes of the swirls generated by the stepped portions 16A and 16B are also changed along the rotary shaft direction L.

  • the pressure fluctuations of the blow-out flow are gradually diffused toward the blow-out port 3 in the blow-out region E2, and the noise can be further reduced.
  • the stepped portions 16A and 16B are not formed in a portion B where the blow-out air velocity is low. If the blow-out air velocity is low, the noise caused by collision against the guide wall 10 does not matter much. If the stepped portion 16 is formed in this portion, the flow might be disturbed by the generated swirl. Thus, in this configuration example, the first and second stepped portions 16A and 16B are disposed only in portions where the blow-out flows are at a high speed so as to reduce the noise caused by the high-speed flow.
  • the distribution of the blow-out air velocity V from the impeller 8a might become the one shown in Fig. 12 .

  • the value Vs as the threshold value is different also depending on an air feeding amount of the cross flow fan 8
  • the stepped portion 16 is assumed to be disposed in a portion where the blow-out air velocity V becomes the predetermined air velocity Vs or more.
  • This predetermined air velocity value Vs is different depending on the sizes of the air conditioner and the cross flow fan and the configuration of an air path. Thus, they cannot be set uniformly but can be set empiricaiiy, experimentally or through simulation. Also, since the blow-out air velocity becomes the lowest at the both end portions in the rotary shaft direction L, a value not less than an intermediate value of the air velocity at the both end portions and the air velocity of the fastest portion, for example, may be set as Vs.
