Abstract

PURPOSE:To humidify upon conditioning air without affecting the air passing through a heat exchanger by a method wherein the humidifying device for the air-conditioning machine is constituted of an upper pan for reserving water therein, a water absorbing member, whose part is dipped into the upper pan, and a ventilating part arranged around the upper pan. CONSTITUTION:The humidifying device for the air-conditioning machine is constituted of the upper pan 8, for reserving water, the water absorbing member 9a, whose one part is dipped into the pan 8, and the ventilating part 8b, ar ranged around the pan 8. Upon the room heating operation of the air-condi tioning machine, a part of warm air, heated by the heat exchanger 3, flows as shown by an arrow sign (d), absorbs water at the surfaces of the water in the pan 8 and the water absorbing member 9a, passes through the ventilating part 8b in a clearance between the upper pan 8 and a lower pan 9 and enters into a room together with airflow shown by the arrow sign C to humidify the inside of the room. The air in the room may be humidified in such manner without affecting the flow of air passing through the heat exchanger.
