Abstract:
A fluid transfer system, comprising:a fluid carrier having a length, an inlet end, and an outlet end, said outlet end having an outlet pressure, said fluid carrier having a resistance to the flow of a given fluid;a constant pressure source of a second fluid attached directly to said inlet end for communicating said second fluid into said fluid carrier through said inlet end, whereby an amount of said second fluid flows through said fluid carrier in an amount equal to the pressure drop across said fluid carrier divided by said resistance; anda constant temperature source of a first fluid surrounding at least a portion of a permeable section of said fluid carrier length,whereby said first fluid permeates into said fluid carrier and intermixes with said amount of said second fluid, and a mixture of said first and second fluids exits said fluid carrier through said outlet end.
