  • Patent number: 4183224
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method and apparatus for precise temperature and humidity control within a confined or determined chamber. Essentially, the method involves determining a desired condition in a controlled space. The essence of the concept is to provide humidity control by the addition of moisture at all operating conditions and, in effect, never having to control dehumidification. Hence, the system is much more controllable than previous approaches, which as a result achieves energy conservation. In addition, the method for heating or cooling is to insure that the heating or cooling does not affect the humidity, but that humidity is added after all the desired temperature relationships are achieved, which enables the system to eliminate control into the dehumidification mode. Further, the process includes a higher air flow rate than normally utilized, all of which improves the precision of the humidification and temperature control process.
