Abstract:
The vaporization type humidification unit includes a vaporization unit that evaporates moisture, a first blower that sucks humidification air humidified by the vaporization unit, a transport tube that is connected to the first blower and through which the air discharged from the first blower is transported, a second blower connected to the transport tube and discharging the humidification air discharged from the first blower side toward outside, an opening provided in a middle of the transport tube, a humidity measurement unit installed on a discharging side of the second blower, and a control unit that controls an air flow rate discharged from the first blower and the second blower, in which the control unit controls the air flow rate discharged from the second blower to a desired value and controls the air flow rate discharged from the first blower based on a humidity measured by the humidity measurement unit.
