Combined Air Conditioning and Water Generating System

Air conditioning and water generating system comprising:

• a cooling chamber having a cooling chamber fresh air inlet for receiving a first stream of atmospheric air from an external environment outside a building, a cooling chamber return air inlet for receiving a first stream of return air from an interior environment of the building, and a cooling chamber supply air outlet for supplying air to the interior environment of the building from the cooling chamber;
• a cooling element disposed within the cooling chamber between the cooling chamber inlets and the cooling chamber outlet;
• a water collection system configured to collect water that condenses from the air flowing past the cooling element under operation of the forced air system;
• a heat dissipation chamber having a second fresh air inlet for receiving a second stream of atmospheric air from the external environment, a second return air inlet for receiving a second stream of return air from the interior environment of the building, and an exhaust outlet communicating with the external environment;
• a heat dissipating element disposed within the heat dissipation chamber between the second fresh air inlet and the exhaust outlet and cooperating with the cooling element to discharge heat that is collected from airflow past the cooling element in the cooling chamber;
• and
• a forced air system operable to force a first air mixture of the first stream of atmospheric air and first stream of return air through the cooling chamber from the cooling chamber fresh air inlet and cooling chamber return air inlet to the supply air outlet, and force a second air mixture of the second stream of atmospheric air and second stream of return air through the heat dissipating chamber from the second fresh air inlet and second return air inlet to the exhaust outlet.

Air conditioning and water generating system comprising:

• a cooling chamber having a cooling chamber inlet and a cooling chamber outlet;
• a cooling element disposed within the cooling chamber between the cooling chamber inlet and cooling chamber outlet;
• a supply air passage connecting the cooling chamber outlet to an interior environment of a building;
• a forced air system operable to draw atmospheric air from an external environment outside the building through the cooling chamber inlet and past the cooling element;
• a water collection system configured to collect water that condenses from the atmospheric air during flow thereof past the cooling element under operation of the forced air system;
• a return air passage connected between the interior environment of the building and the cooling chamber, the forced air system being operable in the air conditioning mode to direct a flow of return air from the interior environment past the cooling element with a flow of fresh atmospheric air entering the cooling chamber inlet from the exterior environment;
• and
• wherein the return passage, forced air system and cooling chamber inlet are arranged to enable mixture of the return air and the fresh atmospheric air in the cooling chamber at a ratio providing 40-60% fresh air content in said mixture.
