Addendum No. 3: Hybrid Aerodynamic Flow Control and Storm-Safe Logic for ALLFROMAIR® Atmospheric Water Harvesting through Electrodynamic Physisorption and Vibration-Induced Desorption

Abstract

This technical addendum (No. 3) introduces critical mechanical and algorithmic advancements for the ALLFROMAIR® system, specifically optimized for outdoor agricultural and industrial applications (Variant 2). The disclosure details a hybrid control strategy for airflow designed to maximize mass transfer across the concentration boundary layer (δ_c). By utilizing an Intelligent Adaptive Control Unit (IACU) to regulate internal air velocity at a constant 1.0 m/s through the coordinated use of mechanical louvers and EC fans, the system ensures the boundary layer remains compressed. This optimization maximizes the local mass transfer coefficient (h_m) in accordance with Fick’s laws. The integrated control logic manages the system as a field continuum, regulating the high-voltage DC module 1.0–4.0 kV to maximize the Modified Kelvin-Thomson (MKT) effect. This process lowers the chemical potential at the electrode surface to force condensation from sub-saturated air. To maintain dielectric stability, voltage is pulse-width modulated (PWM) to prevent Townsend avalanches according to Paschen’s Law as humidity or liquid accumulation increases. Furthermore, the document outlines "storm-safe" logic for extreme meteorological conditions, involving an instantaneous field collapse and the rotation of mechanical louvers to a 0° "feathering" position to minimize the drag coefficient (C_d) and protect the structural integrity of the micro-electrodes and chassis. This report serves as a formal defensive publication to establish prior art and ensure freedom to operate within the public domain.
