Abstract
A concentric air diffuser for use with climate control systems to direct air to desired locations within the interior of a building and return air to the system includes a perforated plate between a supply inlet and supply vents. The perforated plate assists in balancing air flow out of the vents. Additionally, a baffle plate is located along the portion of the perforated plate below the supply inlet to assist in distributing air throughout the diffuser housing prior to allowing the air to flow through the clear area portion of the perforated plate and out through the vents.
