Abstract
An aircraft air conditioning system circulates hot air to a humidifier having an atomized or vaporized water generator (2, 35). The exit of the water generator is located at the apex of a conical surface (20, 27, 42) which diverges in the direction of air circulation. The conical surface is pierced by holes (21) through which the hot air passes while encountering and mixing with the water particles or the water vapor mixes them there and carries them along. The conical surface is a surface of revolution (27) opening downstream. The apex of the conical surface is practically in the form of a spherical cap. The center of the apex is pierced by an outlet passage of the generator (2, 35).
