<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a humidity controller with a refrigerant circuit, saving energy by improving the heat exchanging performance of a heat exchanger as an evaporator during operating a refrigerating cycle. <P>SOLUTION: In an upstream side space 92 of a casing 10, first and second adsorbing elements 81, 82 are provided. In an area adjacent to the upstream side space 92, right and left upper flow paths 65, 67 and lower flow paths 66, 68 are provided through which air flowing in and out of the adsorbing elements 81, 82 passes. The height of a downstream side space 91 partitioned into a first space 41 and a second space 42 is equal to the height of the casing 10. A first source heat exchanger 103 and a second source heat exchanger 104 are provided in the first space 41 and in the second space 42, respectively. Air flowing from the right and left upper flow paths 65, 67 into the first and second spaces 41, 42 passes through the source heat exchangers 103, 104 with its flow expanding in the direction of the height of the casing 10. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI</p> |
