Abstract: An HVAC condensate evaporation system or aerobic dispersion system may transform the condensate that drains out of HVAC systems and/or septic systems into steam that is less likely to cause property damage. The system may be installed midstream in a condensate line and condensate that flows through the condensate line in normal operation may enter the chamber where it hits a solar-powered boiler that evaporates the condensate back into the atmosphere as steam. By converting the condensate into steam, property damage due to drainage out of the condensate line of an HVAC system may be minimized, or even eliminated. The system also may include a back-up capacitor or battery for low solar days. The system may further include wireless notification capability, including, but not limited to, Wi-Fi capability, to transmit notifications to the building owner or other interested parties of condensate issues as they may arise.

Fluid communication between the two surfaces is provided by a condensate flow channel, and the second condensate collecting surface is disposed at a lower vertical height than said first condensate collecting surface, such that the condensate which forms on the evaporator coil drops off and immediately flows to the second condensation collecting surface. A lifting wall is placed just upstream of a lower portion of the condenser fan and adjacent the second condensate collecting surface. The lifting wall, in cooperation with the fan creates an area of decreasing pressure above the second condensate collection surface so as to draw up the condensate into a radially inward portion of the fan where it is drawn into the fan and dispersed onto the condenser coil.

Abstract: A rotating shroud is located on the suction side of the tips of a propeller fan and coacts with an inlet orifice to provide the physical separation between suction and discharge when the unit is in operation. The pressure differential across the fan tends to cause the condensate to move towards the suction side and into the path of the slinger (rotating shroud). The slinger then becomes wetted by the condensate, thereby picking up the condensate and slinging it into the region between the fan and the coil. The condensate is then evaporated upstream or within the coil, improving coil effectiveness.
