Version 3 — corrections and new section (April 2026) This is a corrected and extended version of Technical Addendum 5 (Fog Integration),superseding both v1 and v2. Corrections:- Daily yield figures realigned with the energy-budget-consistent radiative contributions of Addendum 4 v2 (Mediterranean 3.76, Semi-Arid 8.53, Desert Night 6.54 L/m²/day vs the previous v2 over-estimates).- DEP-field contribution to fog droplet steering tempered from "20–40 % efficiency gain" to "5–10 % weighted across the droplet-size distribution", reflecting a Stokes-drag vs DEP-force comparison showing DEP only dominates for droplets >20 µm. The 2–4× yield advantage over standard mesh fog collectors is confirmed and is driven principally by wire-forest geometry (η ≈ 0.72 vs ~0.35 for woven mesh).- SEC values stated explicitly for both operating modes: 1.5–3.0 kWh/m³ with active fan, 0.001–0.003 kWh/m³ wind-driven. Reference: conventional compressor AWG operates at 350–800 kWh/m³. New content:- Section 5.4: Wind–Fog Coincidence. A new section establishing that the cold ocean currents producing advection fog (Humboldt, Benguela, Canary, California) also produce sustained 2–7 m/s onshore wind. Wind-driven operation is therefore the default state, not the exception, in the highest-yield deployment climates. Includes a comparative table of eight coastal fog climates and their driving currents. The prior-art declaration is unchanged and extended to cover the wind–fogcoincidence operating regime. This version supersedes v1 and v2 for citation purposes.
