Abstract: An apparatus and system for producing fresh water from moisture-laden air. The apparatus has a frame supporting a plurality of condensation panels that each have a panel body defining a pair of condensation surfaces that will contact the moisture-laden air. A panel support mechanism supports each of the condensation panels in spaced apart relation to each other so each condensation surface contacts moisture-laden air. A flow channel inside the panel body defines a flow path for a cooling fluid that cools the condensation surfaces so the moisture-laden air will produce condensate thereon that collects as fresh water. The system includes a plurality of apparatuses, a chilling mechanism to cool the cooled fluid, inlet and discharge lines connecting the chilling mechanism and apparatuses, pumps to pressurize the cooled fluid, fans to move the moisture-laden air and water collecting surfaces to collect the fresh water.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for preventing foreign objects from being ingested into the air intake of a jet engine. Apparatuses can have a mount with an opening for fluid communication with an air intake of the engine, a generally pyramidal shaped tip, and at a generally frusto-pyramidal shaped shield between the tip and the mount. The tip and the shield can be generally conical, generally polygonal, generally elliptical, or generally lunal. A proximal end of the tip can overlap and attach to a distal end of the shield and a proximal end of the shield can overlap and attach to a distal end of the mount. The exposed lateral surface of the tip and/or the shield can be solid without openings therein. Systems can include a nacelle provided around a portion of the jet engine and a plurality of overlapping generally frusto-pyramidal guards attached to each other and the nacelle with a plurality of gussets.
