PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the problem of lowering in humidifying efficiency of a humidifier, because it takes much time to uniformly supply water from the outer peripheral part of a humidifying member to the central part, so that a liquid for supplementing moisture in the interior of the humidifying member which is lost by humidifying gas cannot be quickly supplied to the humidifying member. SOLUTION: In this humidifying member 1, gas is blown to the humidifying member 1 absorbing and retaining liquid to evaporate the liquid and humidify the gas. In the humidifying member 1, a plurality of flat porous bodies 2 including a plurality of groove parts 3 provided on the principal surface along the blowing direction of gas are superposed one on the other. Thus, a very small gap produced in the superposed surfaces forms a flow passage for liquid, whereby the liquid can be quickly supplied to the whole humidifying member 1, and also the groove parts 3 function as flow passage for gas, thereby preventing pressure loss of gas to increase the flow of gas. The humidifier 10 having the humidifying member 1 can heighten the humidifying efficiency. COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT
