Patent ID: 7497252

Claim:
An apparatus for active fluid and air heat exchange for refrigeration, cooling, and heating purposes comprising: means for controlling an amount of fluid entering a heat exchanger for processing coupled with integrated temperature sensors; a structure configured to produce controlled atomization and projection droplets, said structure including a perforated tube means for delivering pre-chilled or preheated fluid for atomization, a motorized spinning slotted cylinder for atomizing the fluid into droplets and projecting the droplets by centrifugal force, a closed, pleated, corrugated, heat conductive chamber for forming a fluid film on an inner wall surface of the chamber, the chamber conducting heat energy from ambient air to the fluid film in cooling and conducting heat energy from the fluid film to ambient air in heating, a pumping vane means for returning excess fluid after heat exchange with the fluid film, and a motorized fan for conveying ambient air to an outer surface of said closed, pleated, corrugated, heat conductive chamber to be cooled or heated.
