Abstract: An inverted exhaust plenum module exhausts air from an enclosure into an ambient environment while mitigating airflow restrictions caused by ambient wind conditions, particularly headwinds impinging on exhaust vents. The plenum module includes wall elements that extend downwards from separate edges of two separate roof elements of the enclosure, forming a plenum between the wall elements that is open at the top. Exhaust vents in the wall elements exhaust air from the enclosure into the plenum to circulate into the ambient environment via the top of the plenum. By exhausting air into a plenum that extends beneath roof elements, the vents are at least partially obscured from ambient winds that might otherwise impinge on the vents. A wing element can be installed to induce exhaust airflow via lowering air pressure at the top of the plenum. The plenum module can be a separate module that is coupled to a structure.

Abstract translation: 反向排气增压模块将空气从外壳排放到周围环境中，同时减轻由环境风况引起的气流限制，特别是撞击排气口的逆风。 增压模块包括从外壳的两个独立屋顶元件的分开的边缘向下延伸的壁元件，在顶部开口的壁元件之间形成一个增压室。 壁元件中的排气口将空气从外壳排出到通风室中，以便经由通风顶部循环进入周围环境。 通过将空气排放到在屋顶元件下方延伸的通风室中，通风口至少部分地被来自可能会撞击在通风口上的环境风遮蔽。 可以安装翼元件以通过降低气室顶部的空气压力来引起排气气流。 增压模块可以是耦合到结构的单独的模块。
