Abstract
In the part I of this paper we investigated how the energy carried by warm water can be best used for heating the outdoor cold air while increasing its humidity in cold seasons. We set to check the optimal width of a humidifier/heater that will offer the transfer of mass and energy between air and water with the minimum of entropy production. The mathematical model established in the part I of the present series is now used for introducing numerical examples. For given values of the air temperature and relative humidity at the humidifier inlet, as well as for the desired air temperature and relative humidity at the device outlet, we determine the temperatures (inlet/outlet) of the water for humidification and the quantity to be consumed.
