DEFINITION

Classification: 239/214

(under the class definition) Apparatus comprising (1) a moving means for distributing fluid, said means contacting a supply of the liquid, or (2) a continuously rotating means to

distribute fluid delivered thereto from a modified or unmodified outlet, said means rotating relative to said outlet.

(1) Note. Included under this definition are slingers, splashers or deflectors which are rotated by the fluid impinging thereon, as well as by independent driving means.

(2) Note. Included in this group are evaporator-dehydrator subcombinations, e.g., centrifugal slingers which are disclosed in an evaporative drying apparatus.
