A portable evaporative cooling apparatus includes a primary passage for delivering a primary air stream to an induction nozzle. A secondary passage that is substantially unobstructed extends from an ambient air inlet to the induction nozzle. A secondary air stream is induced through the secondary passage by the primary air stream and the primary and secondary air streams are ejected from the induction nozzle into the ambient air. An atomiser in the secondary passage, proximate the ambient air inlet, emits a fine spray of water into the secondary air stream. The mixing of the water spray and induced air flow is performed inside the induction nozzle, which also provides a physical and thermal barrier, and makes a completely cooled air stream available immediately outside the user, so the apparatuses may be placed close to the user's face, for example. 1. A portable evaporative cooling apparatus comprising:an induction nozzle;a primary passage for delivering a primary air stream to the induction nozzle;a secondary passage that is substantially unobstructed and extends from an ambient air inlet to the induction nozzle, wherein a secondary air stream is induced through the secondary passage by the primary air stream and the primary and secondary air streams are ejected from the induction nozzle into ambient air; andan atomiser in the secondary passage, proximate the ambient air inlet, for emitting a spray of water into the secondary air stream.2.

When mineral components such as calcium carbonate and magnesium are contained in humidifying water and a humidification plate has holes and high humidifying efficiency, scales may be locally generated at an end or vicinities of the holes on a windward side. When minute voids in the humidification plate are clogged due to the scales, water absorption capability at a scale generation region is significantly reduced. A problem can arise requiring to replace the humidification plate even when a region other than the end and the vicinities of the holes is satisfactory, whereby replacement cycles are shortened. To address the problem, plural openings in a plate thickness direction are distributed on a flat plate surface of a water absorbing humidifying material. Thus, in an airflow direction of air sent from end sides of the water absorbing humidifying material, opening areas of the plural openings on one end side are increased. 1.
