"One of the most important components of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) is an air handling unit (AHU) which is used to condition and mix air that arrives from outside the building (OA) and return air (RA) that exits from the indoor space. Poor mixing between the warm return air and the cold outside air often leads to air stratification in AHU, which results in various problems, such as, nuisance trips of low temperature safety thermostats, freezing of chilled or hot water coils in a stratified subfreezing air stream and loss of control when sensors cannot read the true …
