Abstract
An aircraft humidifier is engineered as a stand-alone, fully integrated aircraft humidifier that is suitable for providing uniform, non-wetting humidified air disbursed by the aircraft humidifier into ambient air to increase the relative humidity in low humidity environments such as aircraft interiors, including cockpits, cabins, crew rests, cargo holds, and lavatories as well as any other enclosed areas.
Claims9
A system comprising:
- an aircraft humidifier comprising:
- a water filtration system that is suitable to produce filtered water without freezing, the water filtration system operating by static water pressure from an aircraft and including stages selected from a group consisting essentially of reverse osmosis and deionization;
- and
- a duct that is capable of receiving atomized water droplets formed from the filtered water and compressed air to communicate the atomized water droplets to ambient air, the duct including a mouth, throat, neck, and a mix joint to receive the atomized water droplets, which together communicate the atomized water droplets to a chute, C-joint, and canal, which together in turn communicate the atomized water droplets to the ambient air through a posterior air outlet while evaporating remaining atomized water droplets inside the duct;
- and
- an aircraft galley service trolley on wheels in which the aircraft humidifier is housed.
