Abstract

A method for cooling air to a predetermined outflow temperature for use in an atmosphere having a controlled humidity. In the method, a stream of air having an unknown temperature and an unknown humidity content is supplied. The air is cooled to provide cooled air having a temperature at or below the predetermined outflow temperature. The cooled air is heated when necessary to provide outgoing air having a temperature approximately equal to the predetermined outflow temperature.
