Assignee:
Esmond & Clifford, Inc. - Houston TX
International Classification:
A01G 1500, E01H 1300
US Classification:

Abstract:
Fog is dispelled from a site by passing fog-laden air into a drying unit where it is contacted with an aqueous solution of calcium chloride under conditions which effectuate absorption of the water particles and some water from the air effective to increase the temperature of the air and dry it to a predetermined relative humidity range, then discharging the dried heated air from the unit into fog-laden air at the site to effectuate vaporization of suspended water particles and associated cooling of the discharged air without development of thermals of the discharged air sufficient to create substantial circulation of fog-laden air into the site.
Method And Apparatus For Dispelling Fog
US Patent:
5242109, Sep 7, 1993
Filed:
Feb 21, 1992
Appl. No.:
7/840632
Inventors:
Jack B. Esmond - Spring TX
Assignee:
Esmond & Clifford, Inc. - Houston TX
International Classification:
A01G 1500, E01H 1300
US Classification:
239 21
Abstract:
Fog is dispelled from a site by passing fog-laden air into a drying unit where it is contacted with a dessicant liquid (either an aqueous solution or a deliquescent absorbent which is not calcium chloride or a liquid dessicant such as glycerol or certain others) under conditions which effectuate absorption of the water particles and some water from the air effective to increase the temperature of the air and dry it to a predetermined relative humidity range, then discharging the dried heated air from the unit into fog-laden air at the site to effectuate vaporization of suspended water particles and associated cooling of the discharged air without development of thermals of the discharged air sufficient to create substantial circulation of fog-laden air into the site.
