Title: Method and apparatus for providing a precise amount of gas at a precise humidity

Abstract

A fluid transfer system includes a permeable fluid carrier, a constant temperature source of a first fluid, and a constant pressure source of a second fluid. The fluid carrier has a length, an inlet end, and an outlet end. The constant pressure source connects to the inlet end and communicates the second fluid into the fluid carrier, and the constant temperature source surrounds a least of portion of the length. A mixture of the first fluid and the second fluid exits via the outlet end A method of making a mixture of two fluids is also disclosed.
