Zusammenfassung:An apparatus is disclosed to carry out a humidification process which includes the steps of blowing hot air upwardly through a plurality of tubes (34) submerged in a body of water (8) but which terminate above the water level (16), aspirating water into hot jets of air, atomizing the water (8) by the action of the air (17) on the water, evaporatively combining the mixture (17a) of water and air, mechanically separating the excess water droplets out of the air stream (17a) in a baffle (60), and discharging the humidified air (17b) into a duct (12) leading to a compartment (22) to be conditioned.
