摘要:
Several embodiments of a fluid distillation system (10) wherein each embodiment uses a primary container or chamber (22) for water or fluid to be distilled and a secondary water container or chamber(24). The two chambers (22, 24) are adjacent to each other, and the secondary chamber (24) cooperates with the primary chamber (22) to direct water vapor generated in the system to travel to a reservoir (55) for collection. The primary chamber (22) has a heater (42) therewithin near the upper surface (46) of the water carried thereby. The heater (42) is provided for generating water vapor from aerated water, whereby the water vapor when heated will pass out of water at the upper surface (46) of the water and into fluid passages (26) for flow to the reservoir (55). The secondary container or chamber (24) has no heater but carries aerated water before the water moves out of the secondary container or chamber (24) and into and downwardly along a passage (48) which leads eventually to the reservoir (55). Thus, the configuration of the primary and secondary chambers (22, 24) leads to an increase in the yield of the distilled water (57) in the reservoir (55) yet the system (10) remains relatively simple in that only a single heater (42) is used and that is in the primary chamber (22) while the secondary chamber(24) has no heater.
