DEHUMIDIFICATION APPARATUS

摘要

Dehumidification apparatus including a cooled core coupled to an external cooling source, at least first and second relatively humid air inlet pathways leading to the cooled core and at least first and second relatively dry air outlet pathways leading from the cooled core, the outlet pathways being in heat exchange propinquity with the inlet pathways whereby relatively humid air in the inlet pathways is precooled upstream of the cooled core and relatively dry air in the outlet pathways is heated downstream of the cooled core, the cooled core defining a multiplicity of mutually adjacent cooling pathways extending therethrough which are each coupled to one of the inlet pathways and to one of the outlet pathways such that air passes through adjacent ones of the mutually adjacent cooling pathways in mutually different directions.

1. Dehumidification apparatus comprising:
a cooled core coupled to an external cooling source; at least first and second relatively humid air inlet pathways leading to said cooled core; and at least first and second relatively dry air outlet pathways leading from said cooled core, said at least first and second relatively dry air outlet pathways being in heat exchange propinquity with said at least first and second relatively humid air inlet pathways whereby relatively humid air in said first and second relatively humid air inlet pathways is precooled upstream of said cooled core and relatively dry air in said first and second relatively dry air outlet pathways is heated downstream of said cooled core, said cooled core defining a multiplicity of mutually adjacent cooling pathways extending therethrough which are each coupled to one of said at least first and second relatively humid air inlet pathways and to one of said at least first and second relatively dry air outlet pathways such that air passes through adjacent ones of said mutually adjacent cooling pathways in mutually different directions.
