Abstract:
An evaporator is provided for evaporating water from an ambient body of water having a water surface. The evaporator includes a housing that has a proximal end proximate to the water surface, a distal end distal to the water surface, and a housing air flow channel directed toward the water surface. The housing is disposed on a support, such as a float assembly, that positions the housing above the water surface. The evaporator also includes an air flow induction device, preferably an impeller, disposed to direct an air flow stream from the distal end toward the proximal end through the housing air flow channel and toward the water surface so that the air contacts the water. The impeller preferably is made of a fiberglass material. The support preferably includes at least one float assembly air flow channel that receives the air flow stream from the housing and directs it outwardly from the evaporator. Water injection devices such as spray nozzles or atomizing nozzles preferably are disposed in the float assembly channel or channels to inject the water into the air flow stream.

Claim (Index 21):
An evaporator as recited in  claim 15 , further comprising:\n an electric motor operatively coupled to the impeller to drive the impeller; and a variable frequency drive operatively coupled to the motor.
