Abstract
An air humidification system for the humidification of a zone includes supply ducts and return ducts extending from a first air handler. A second air handler has an enclosure sized to form a fog absorption region with a cross-sectional area that is greater than the cross-sectional area of the air conditioning ducting coupled to the zone. The enclosure has an intake and a discharge through which air passes. A compressor associated with the second air handler provides pressurized air for the generation of the fog for humidification. A fogger has a water input coupled to the pressurized water supply, an air input coupled to the pressurized air supply from the compressor, and a discharge port from which fog is produced. A humidification control is interposed between the supplies of pressurized air from the compressor and water to the fogger in the enclosure to produce fog from the fogger inside the second air handier when the humidification in the zone is below a desired set point. The enclosure has a drain through which water from the fog produced by the fogger can be discharged from the enclosure. A water droplet eliminator is located near the discharge of the enclosure to reduce the passage of non-evaporated fog from passing into the ducting.
