Abstract
Apparatus for producing liquid water from the condensation of atmospheric water vapor includes a transportable housing defining a first air inlet, a second air inlet, and an air outlet; first and second doors operable selectively to open and close the first and second air inlets, respectively; and at least one water condensation unit located in the housing between the first air inlet and the air outlet, and between the second air inlet and the air outlet. The housing is configured so that, when at least one of the first and second air inlets is open, at least a portion of an air flow into the at least one open air inlet is passed through the at least one condensation unit and out the air outlet.

Apparatus for condensing liquid water from ambient air having water vapor, the apparatus comprising:
- a water condensing unit having a pre-cooling section and configured to receive a flow of ambient air and to condense water vapor from the ambient air into liquid water;
- and
- a condensate collection tray operatively coupled to the water condensing unit and configured to receive the liquid water from the water condensing unit.
Apparatus for condensing liquid water from ambient air having water vapor, the apparatus comprising:
- a water condensing unit configured to be positionable in a transportable housing and including a pre-cooling section and a condensing section, the water condensing unit configured to condense water vapor from a flow of the ambient air into the housing and through the pre-cooling section and the condensing section;
- and
- a condensate collection tray operatively coupled to the water condensing unit so as to receive the liquid water from the water condensing unit.
Apparatus for condensing liquid water from ambient air having water vapor, the apparatus comprising:
- a housing having opposed first and second ends;
- first and second opposed side walls, each of the first and second side walls extending between the first and second ends of the housing;
- a first opening defined by one of the first or second ends;
- a second opening in one of the first or second opposed side walls;
- a water condensing unit disposed in the housing and including a pre-cooling section and a condensing section, the water condensing unit configured to form liquid water from water vapor in the ambient air as the ambient air flows between the first opening and the second opening such that the ambient air passes through the pre-cooling section and the condensing section;
- and
- a condensate collection tray operatively coupled to the water condensing unit, the condensate collection tray configured to receive liquid water from the water condensing unit.
