Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce pressure loss of air passing through a humidifire and restrain by minimization for dirt and dust adhering to the surface of the humidifire by a method wherein the humidifire is fitted to a downstream side by having a predetermined space for the air flowing of a heat exchanger having plate fins. CONSTITUTION:The humidifire 7 using hollow porous member 1 is located to the downstream side for the air flowing of the heat exchanger 8 having the plate fins and the clearance A between the humidifire 7 using the hollow porous member 1 and the heat exchanger 8 having the plate fins is restrained at the range from several millimeters to several tens of millimeters. The confus ing air current discharged out of a fan 10 passes through the heat exchanger 8 having the plate fins to form a laminar air flow, the air forming the laminar air flow is flowed between the hollow porous members forming by the wavelike space 5 of he humidifire, therefore, the pressure loss of the air becomes small and the dirt and the dust hardly adhere to the surface of the humidifire.

Furthermore, the ultrasonic method has drawbacks such as high initial cost and short life.

Therefore, we have repeatedly investigated ways to greatly improve the humidification capacity of natural evaporation humidifiers, which have the lowest initial cost and running cost and are the most practical. In the natural evaporation method, in order to maximize the area for water evaporation, efforts are made to use a vat-shaped container with a large opening or to soak the bottom end of a woven water-based fiber in water to increase the water surface through capillary force. are doing. If water were to be sliced into several layers and arranged in multiple layers vertically, the area for water evaporation could be greatly increased.

It was previously discovered that water can be held in any space by containing the sliced water, and moreover, the water can freely evaporate.
