Abstract
An assembly for introducing air into a passenger compartment of a vehicle is provided. The assembly includes at least three mutually spaced air channels which can be provided with air and each of which has an air outlet. Each air channel is fluidly communicatively connected to the passenger compartment via the air outlets, and an open jet can exit from the outlet. The assembly also includes at least one controller, with which a mass flow of an air flow in each air channel can be controlled. The air outlets are designed and oriented relative to one another such that open jets exiting simultaneously from at least two air outlets can be mixed together in the passenger compartment so as to form a single total air flow. To provide an improved possibility of introducing air into a passenger compartment of a vehicle, the controller is designed to control the mass flow of the air flow in each air channel such that a main flow direction of the total air flow can be spatially varied.
