ABSTRACT:
A self-contained air conditioner unit comprises an enclosure including a first and second intake apertures positioned to communicate with outside ambient air and first, second, and third outlet apertures positioned to communicate with a habitable space in which the air conditioner is placed. A water reservoir is disposed at the bottom of the enclosure. A two-section heat exchanger is disposed in the cabinet over the water reservoir, each section comprising a plurality of vertically disposed, alternating wet air channels and dry air channels defined by substantially parallel opposing heat-transfer partitions. The first-section dry-air channels communicate with a pre-mixing chamber at intake ends thereof and an air-distributing chamber at outlet ends thereof. Each first-section wet channel communicates with the distributing chamber at intake ends thereof and the second outlet aperture at outlet ends thereof. The second heat exchange section comprises primary dry-air channels communicating with the distributing chamber at intake ends thereof and the first outlet aperture at outlet ends thereof and auxiliary dry-air channels communicating with the distributing chamber at intake ends thereof and intake ends of wet-air channel at the far ends thereof. Second-section wet-air channel communicate with the auxiliary dry-air channels at intake ends thereof and the third outlet aperture at outlet ends thereof. A wet partition comprising a capillary porous material is disposed in each of the wet-air channel, is oriented substantially parallel to the opposing heat transfer partitions and is positioned so as to substantially bisect the volume of the wet channel in which it is disposed. Each of the wet partitions extends into a volume of water contained in the water reservoir. Air moving means are provided for moving a volume of air from the first and second intake apertures through the dry-air channels and for moving air between the wet-air channel and the second and third outlet aperture.
