    5.4.2 Positioning of the steam distributor The location of the steam distributor should be determined at the time of dimensioning the air condition- ing system. Please note the following instructions to ensure proper humidification of the duct air. Calculating the absorption distance The steam, emitting from the steam distributor, requires a certain distance to be absorbed by the air so that it is no longer visible as steam.
