Condensation Prevention
When cold surfaces are surrounded by moist air, water vapor will condense on the surface like “sweat” on a cold beer glass in summertime. This can lead to a surprising number of problems. For instance, consumers in a supermarket may not be able to see frozen foods in a refrigerated display case with a glass door. That may mean thousands of dollars in lost revenue. Alternately, condensation can form on hidden aircraft structural members as a plane descends from the cold upper atmosphere into moist environments, which can accelerate stress corrosion, shortening the life of the air frame. In both of these cases, dehumidifiers are installed to surround the cold surface with dry air.
