Abstract
A speed-sensitized type air duct apparatus includes an air duct having an internal space, an inlet at a front through which cooling air can be introduced, and an outlet at a rear through which the cooling air can be discharged. A guide extends across the internal space of the air duct in a front-rear direction. The guide has a number of air curtains configured to guide flow of the cooling air and having turning portions to change a flow direction of the cooling air, at some sections to decrease a flow rate of cooling air that is discharged to the outlet with the flow direction of the cooling air further changed as a flow speed of cooling air entering the inlet increases.
