Abstract
An air conditioning apparatus includes a casing having intake and blow-out ports, a partition member dividing an interior of the casing, a heat exchanger, and a centrifugal fan. The blow-out port is at least partially disposed adjacent to a blow-out port nearby lateral part of the casing along an opening direction of a fan entrance and the blow-out port. A fan downwind space is located on a downwind side of a bladed wheel within a fan compartment, and has a blow-out port opposed space and a blow-out port non-opposed space. A first guide member directs air existing in the blow-out port non-opposed space toward the blow-out port opposed space, and is mounted in a boundary region located astride of regions located on forward and rearward sides in a rotary direction within the blow-out port non-opposed and blow-out port opposed spaces, respectively.
