Methods, systems, and devices for humidifying
View Patent ↗Methods, systems, and devices for humidifying are described herein. One method includes determining a temperature in a space associated with a humidifying unit, determining a relative humidity in the space, determining an air speed associated with the humidifying unit, and adjusting an amount of water sprayed by the humidifying unit based, at least in part, on the temperature, the relative humidity, and the air speed.
1. A method for humidifying, comprising:
determining a temperature in a space associated with a humidifying unit;
determining a relative humidity in the space;
determining an air speed associated with the humidifying unit; and
adjusting an amount of water sprayed by the humidifying unit based, at least in part, on the temperature, the relative humidity, and the air speed; and
wherein adjusting the amount of water sprayed includes maintaining a droplet size of the amount of water sprayed by keeping a spray unit frequency and a spray unit actuation voltage under a particular threshold.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the method includes determining the temperature in a duct associated with the space at a particular distance downstream from the humidifying unit.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the method includes determining a downstream relative humidity in a duct associated with the space at a particular distance downstream from the humidifying unit.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the method includes determining an upstream relative humidity in a duct upstream from the humidifying unit and adjusting the amount of water sprayed based on the upstream relative humidity.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining an air speed associated with the humidifying unit includes determining a fan speed of a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system associated with the space.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the method includes adjusting a fan associated with the humidifying unit.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the method includes adjusting the amount of water based on a desired humidity level in the space associated with the humidifying unit.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the method includes adjusting the amount of water responsive to the temperature exceeding a particular threshold.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the method includes adjusting the amount of water to maintain the relative humidity below a first threshold and above a second threshold.
