Thin Film Capillary Vaporization: Device And Methods

US Patent:
2011021, Sep 1, 2011
Filed:
Jan 16, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/007641
Inventors:
Kelly James Brodbeck - Danville CA, US
Warren Saul Breslau - Berkeley CA, US
Erick Matthew Davidson - Piedmont CA, US
Assignee:
VAPORE, INC. - Alameda CA
International Classification:
F24F 3/12
US Classification:
261128, 261127
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for the generation of directed vapor from a liquid source. Vaporization takes place within a device capable of confining boiling to a geometrically small volume, and expelling it as heated vapor via capillary vaporization. The foregoing is accomplished through the use of a lightweight, compact and portable personal vaporization device that generates heated vapor by the flash boiling of small volumes of aqueous liquid in a safe and energy-efficient manner. Further, the production of vapor absent microbes in aqueous systems is accomplished through the combination of microporous componentry and flash vaporization. The apparatus and methods are directed toward personal humidification for comfort and therapeutic purposes in the case of aqueous liquids, but may also be used with other, non-aqueous liquids.
