Abstract
A method includes receiving a treatment temperature from a user device; positioning a tree within a treatment region of a canopy; flowing a fluid from a hot fluid generating system to the canopy; spraying the fluid from the hot fluid generating system into the treatment region of the canopy; and selectively enabling and disabling a fluid flow from the hot fluid generating system to the canopy to maintain the treatment temperature within the treatment region of the canopy.
Claims21
A method comprising:
- receiving a treatment temperature from a user device;
- positioning a tree within a treatment region of a canopy;
- flowing a fluid from a hot fluid generating system to the canopy;
- spraying the fluid from the hot fluid generating system into the treatment region of the canopy;
- selectively enabling and disabling a fluid flow from the hot fluid generating system to the canopy to maintain the treatment temperature within the treatment region of the canopy;
- receiving a treatment duration time from the user device;
- selectively disabling the fluid flow from the hot fluid generating system to the canopy to maintain the treatment temperature within the canopy for the treatment duration time:
- and
- disabling the fluid flow from the hot fluid generating system to the canopy upon expiration of the treatment duration time.
A method comprising:
- receiving a treatment temperature from a user device;
- positioning a tree within a treatment region of a canopy;
- flowing a fluid from a hot fluid generating system to the canopy;
- spraying the fluid from the hot fluid generating system into the treatment region of the canopy;
- selectively enabling and disabling a fluid flow from the hot fluid generating system to the canopy to maintain the treatment temperature within the treatment region of the canopy;
- receiving a fluid temperature of the fluid in the hot fluid generating system from a temperature probe;
- determining whether the fluid temperature is at or above a high-high temperature limit;
- disabling the fluid flow from the hot fluid generating system to the canopy if the fluid temperature is at or above the high-high temperature limit;
- disabling heating of the fluid by a hot water generator of the hot fluid generating system if the fluid temperature is at or above a high temperature limit and below the high-high temperature limit;
- and
- disabling the fluid flow from the hot fluid generating system to the canopy if the fluid temperature is below the high temperature limit.
A method comprising:
- receiving a treatment temperature from a user device;
- positioning a tree within a treatment region of a canopy;
- flowing a fluid from a hot fluid generating system to the canopy;
- spraying the fluid from the hot fluid generating system into the treatment region of the canopy;
- selectively enabling and disabling a fluid flow from the hot fluid generating system to the canopy to maintain the treatment temperature within the treatment region of the canopy;
- monitoring a safety timer;
- disabling the fluid flow from the hot fluid generating system to the canopy upon expiration of the safety timer if the fluid flow is not already disabled;
- resetting the safety timer;
- receiving a treatment duration time from the user device;
- enabling the fluid flow from the hot fluid generating system to the canopy;
- and maintaining the fluid flow to the canopy at the treatment temperature for the treatment duration time.
