Abstract (en)

[origin: DE102007050799B3] The device has housing (1) through which the gas to be humidified and heated flows on a predetermined path. A space (5) is provided for feeding and holding the water for humidification, which is arranged in the lower area of the housing and, in which the water remains in thermal contact with a lower area of a heat exchanger (4). A vapor flow path (6) is provided, which is guided upward from the space for transport of the vaporized water to an upper area of the housing.
