Abstract:
An apparatus for transforming the water vapor in the atmosphere into liquid water comprising a precipitating chamber, a mixing chamber, heat transfer system, and means for moving atmospheric air through the system.
A method of producing liquid water from the atmosphere comprising the steps of passing a first stream of air past a heat absorbing element of a heat transfer system to cause water to precipitate onto the heat absorbing element; mixing the first air stream with a second air stream; passing the mixed air streams past the heat dissipating element of the heat transfer system; varying the proportion of amount of air from the first and second air streams to a predetermined ratio which is a function of the atmospheric conditions.
