Apparatus and method for separating fluid flows in a heating device

摘要

An apparatus for separating fluid flows in a heating device, particularly for heating the interior of a motor vehicle is proposed, the heating device having at least one heater equipped with a plurality of lamellar heat emission or delivery elements. In order to ensure an easy, inexpensive separation of several fluid flows and in particular also downstream of the heater equipped with the lamellar heat emission elements, according to the invention a substantially plate-shaped separator is provided having an opening with a contour adapted for the pushing of the separator onto the heater equipped with the lamellar heat emission elements. The invention also relates to a method for separating several fluid flows in a heating device of the aforementioned type.
