연합인증

연합인증 가입 기관의 연구자들은 소속기관의 인증정보(ID와 암호)를 이용해 다른 대학, 연구기관, 서비스 공급자의 다양한 온라인 자원과 연구 데이터를 이용할 수 있습니다.

이는 여행자가 자국에서 발행 받은 여권으로 세계 각국을 자유롭게 여행할 수 있는 것과 같습니다.

연합인증으로 이용이 가능한 서비스는 NTIS, DataON, Edison, Kafe, Webinar 등이 있습니다.

한번의 인증절차만으로 연합인증 가입 서비스에 추가 로그인 없이 이용이 가능합니다.

다만, 연합인증을 위해서는 최초 1회만 인증 절차가 필요합니다. (회원이 아닐 경우 회원 가입이 필요합니다.)

연합인증 절차는 다음과 같습니다.

최초이용시에는
ScienceON에 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 로그인 (본인 확인 또는 회원가입) → 서비스 이용

그 이후에는
ScienceON 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 서비스 이용

연합인증을 활용하시면 KISTI가 제공하는 다양한 서비스를 편리하게 이용하실 수 있습니다.

The temperature-controlled case of claim 1, wherein the air distribution tower includes a first diffuser that at least partially defines the first flow path of the air flow toward the front portion of the at least one shelf and a second diffuser that at least partially defines the second flow path of the air flow toward the rear portion of the at least one shelf. 3. The temperature-controlled case of claim 1, wherein the shelf base and the shelf cover define a wedge shaped space therebetween. 4. The temperature-controlled case of claim 1, wherein the plurality of openings comprise circular holes arranged in a pattern and disposed toward the front portion of the at least one shelf. 5. The temperature-controlled case of claim 1, wherein the plurality of shelves includes a first shelf comprising openings arranged in a first pattern and a second shelf comprising openings arranged in a second pattern, the second shelf being above the first shelf and the openings of the second pattern being generally larger than the openings of the first pattern. 6. The temperature-controlled case of claim 1, wherein the plurality of shelves includes a first shelf comprising openings arranged in a first pattern and a second shelf comprising openings arranged in a second pattern, the second shelf being above the first shelf and the second pattern comprising more openings than the first pattern. 7. The temperature-controlled case of claim 1, wherein the air distribution tower includes the vertical exterior wall having a plurality of substantially planar segments. 8. The temperature-controlled case of claim 7, wherein at least one shelf includes a plurality of substantially planar segments corresponding to the plurality of substantially planar segments of the exterior wall of the air distribution tower. 9. The temperature-controlled case of claim 7, wherein the air distribution tower includes the cavity segmented into a plurality of channels extending substantially vertically and corresponding to the plurality of substantially planar segments of the exterior wall of the air distribution tower. 10. A temperature-controlled case, comprising: a base including a deck providing an upper surface of a cavity below the deck;an air flow device located within the cavity below the deck and configured to provide an air flow, the air flow having a first portion and a second portion;an air distribution tower having a perimeter with a portion defined by a polygonal shape having a plurality of substantially planar wall segments;a plurality of shelves each having a front portion and a rear portion, the rear portion of each shelf disposed adjacent to the air distribution tower;a plurality of air diverting devices, wherein each air diverting device is disposed adjacent to one of the planar wall segments and comprises a first opening below the deck, a second opening above the deck, and a body defining a passage through the deck between the first opening and the second opening, wherein each air diverting device receives the second portion of the air flow at the first opening below the deck, directs the second portion of the air flow through the passage from the first opening to the second opening, and outputs the second portion of the airflow perpendicularly outward from the adjacent planar wall segment at the second opening above the deck; andwherein each air diverting device permits the first portion of the air flow to be directed into the air distribution tower. 11.
