The invention concerns a device for increasing the relative humidity of an air flow (13), comprising air humidifying means (25) which are arranged in the air flow (13), and which are configured to supply humidifying water to the air flow (13). The invention is characterized in that said air humidifying means (25) are connected to a humidifying circuit (5) which comprises a recycling pump (7) for recycling the humidifying water in the humidifying circuit (5), and a humidifying heat exchanger (13) for heating the humidifying water so that it reaches a temperature lower than boiling point. The invention aims at creating a device enabling the humidifying power to be significantly increased, at a low cost and with little space requirement. Therefor, the humidifying means include a hollow porous material (15) which is connected to the humidifying circuit (5).

L'invention concerne un dispositif pour accroître l'humidité relative d'un écoulement d'air (13), comprenant des moyens d'humidification d'air (25) qui sont disposés dans l'écoulement d'air (13), et qui sont configurés pour fournir de l'eau d'humidification à l'écoulement d'air (13). Selon l'invention, ces moyens d'humidification d'air (25) sont reliés à un circuit d'humidification (5) qui comprend une pompe de recirculation (7) servant à faire recirculer l'eau d'humidification dans le circuit d'humidification (5), et un échangeur thermique d'humidification (13) servant à chauffer l'eau d'humidification de manière qu'elle atteigne une température inférieure au point d'ébullition. L'objectif de cette invention est de créer un dispositif permettant d'accroître significativement la puissance d'humidification, de manière peu onéreuse et peu encombrante. A cet effet, les moyens d'humidification comprennent un matériau poreux creux (15) qui est raccordé au circuit d'humidification (5).
