Abstract

An air conditioning method and systems for the same for purification of indoor air by cooling of inflowing air to cryogenic temperature, separation of contaminants and preheating of outgoing air to required temperature wherein cooling is produced by injecting of oxygen and nitrogen at cryogenic temperature into the air passage through a heat exchanger or by using a cryogenic generator that is connected to an air passage of an air conditioning system.

Description

Specification The proposed method and air conditioning system were develop to solve the problem of purification, cooling and refreshing of the indoor air to eliminate root cause of a "Sick building syndrome" and create healthy conditions for people who live in large cities, that are affected by smog, such as Toronto and Hamilton in Canada, New York and Buffalo in the USA, Mexico City. The symptoms attributed to this syndrome include headache, nausea, shortness of breath, sinus congestion, and eye-nose-throat irritation.
The invention can be used for improving of the indoor air in individual homes, offices and production facilities.
Traditional air conditioning cooling systems that are described in Canadian patents 1,298,470; 1,086,499, 1,248807 and 1,248,807 and US patents 6,775,995;
6,796,140;
6,434,963; 6,282,913 and 6,796,375 include a compressor, a condensing unit, an expansion valve and an evaporator. The compressor compresses gaseous refrigerant exiting the evaporator and discharges the high-pressure refrigerant to the condensing unit.
The condensing unit operates as a heat exchanger enabling heat transfer from the gaseous refrigerant to a heat sink such as air or water. The refrigerant condenses within the condensing unit and a state change occurs from gas to liquid. The liquid refrigerant exits the condensing unit and flows to the evaporator through the expansion valve.
The evaporator also operates as a heat exchanger enabling heat transfer from the atmosphere surrounding the evaporator to the liquid refrigerant. As the heat transfer occurs, the temperature of the refrigerant increases until a state change occurs from liquid to gas. The gas refrigerant is drawn into the suction side of the compressor and the cooling cycle continues. The condensing unit can be one of an air-cooled condensing unit or a water-cooled condensing unit. All these systems do not refresh indoor air and in many cases have caused so called "Sick building syndrome" which has resulted due to the accumulation of harmful impurities in indoor air.
The air purification system for a central air conditioning unit per the US
patent 6,761,756 includes a pan assembly including a pan member having bottom and side walls, and also having plurality of ports being spaced about and being disposed through the bottom wall with the pan member being adapted to hold water and to be disposed in a duct for a central air conditioning system; and also includes a plurality of air intake members being disposed in the ports of the pan member; and further includes cap assemblies including a plurality of tubular cap members being spaced above and disposed about the air intake members. This purification system produces significant amount of water and humidity.
Humidity results in multiplication and growing of different types of harmful bacteria and respiratory infections. As a result such air conditioning system must be equipped with humidifiers.
Moisture separators per the US 6,782,709 or W08000468 and collectors for the liquid phase of a working medium of an air conditioning system per the US patent 6,792,773 significantly reduce humidity of indoor air. However, all these systems have two major weaknesses. First of all, they do not refresh indoor air. Secondly, these cooling systems still remain a breading place for harmful bacteria.
The air conditioner per Canadian patent 1,312,553 comprises water-absorbing polymers that are included in the path of a refrigeration cycle to remove accumulated water or water vapor that inherently develops. This filter still results in contamination of the indoor air with water and harmful bacteria.
Filters and ultraviolet light emitting devises per the US patents 6,743,279;
6,790,265 and 6,707,044 have been used to remove bacteria from the indoor air. The air filter device includes a filter net and one or more ultraviolet light-emitting diodes (UV
LEDs). The filter net is disposed at an air passageway of the exhaust device. The UV LED
is disposed on the exhaust device and located at one side of the filter net to irradiate UV light toward the filter net, hence accomplishing filtering and sterilizing effects to air passing through the exhaust device and thus improving the quality of indoor air. All know filters and UV
devises provide disinfections of indoor air. However, they do not refresh indoor air.
Carbon dioxide, heavy hydrocarbons and other contaminants affect human health.
Most advanced method of air conditioning per Canadian Application 2,472,752 of 2004/07/08 comprises injecting of purified liquid or cooled to cryogenic temperature oxygen and nitrogen or mixture of these gases into the air passage of the air conditioning system. This method resolved refreshing problem, but direct injection of cold mixture of oxygen and nitrogen can result in precipitation of moisture in the air passage close to injection valves. Also, direct injection of fresh air does not resolve purification of indoor air problem.
We have found that most disadvantages of all known methods and air conditioning systems can be overcome by cooling of inflowing air to cryogenic temperature, separation of frozen or liquefied contaminants from airflow, followed by preheating of outgoing air to required temperature that is produced by an air conditioning system.
Method as above wherein cooling and purification of inflowing air is performed by injecting of refreshing mixture of oxygen and nitrogen or either of these gases at cryogenic temperature into airflow through a heat exchanger that is placed inside the air passage of an air conditioning system.
Other embodiment of the proposed method allows performing deep purification of indoor air by cooling it to cryogenic temperature with using a cryogenic generator that is connected to an air passage of an air conditioning system.

In order to execute the proposed method, an air conditioning system that includes a compressor, air passages, outlets and inlets, oxygen and nitrogen storage units, regulating valves, comprises also a heat exchange that is placed in the air passage and connected by one opening to a liquid nitrogen and oxygen storage units while second one is provided with a nozzle for injecting of cryogenic oxygen-nitrogen mixture into outgoing air.
To improve efficiency of an air conditioning system during continues heavy-duty cycle last on is provide with a bypass that is equipped with a heat exchanger for the continues cooling and purification of indoor air during removal of contaminants from a major air passage.
To speed up defrosting and removal of contaminants an air conditioning system can also be provided with a heat, ultraviolet or high frequency radiator that is placed near a heat exchanger and connected to a power supply.
The proposed air conditioning system can be manufactured as fully autonomous or as a module that is connected to a standard air conditioning system.
To improve energy efficiency by using outdoor air for preheating of injected gases a heat exchanger or mixer can be mounted with partial interface with outdoor air.
To ensure uneven usage and simultaneous refilling of an oxygen and nitrogen storage units, last one is manufactured with capacity that is 3 - 3.5 times greater than capacity of an oxygen one.
Other embodiment of the proposed air conditioning system allows performing deep purification by cooling and liquefying of inflowing air with using a cryogenic generator that is connected to an air passage of an air conditioning system.
For small compartments an air conditioning system can comprise a heat exchanger that is connected by one opening through a regulation valves and mixer to an oxygen and nitrogen storage units, while other opening is provided with a pipe line that is at least partially located inside a compartment and equipped with a nozzle and pan that is adapted to hold and disposed water.
Common air consists of approximately 78% nitrogen, 21 % oxygen, 1 % argon, small amounts of carbon dioxide and other impurities and contaminants. In addition, variable amounts of water vapor is present in air depending upon humidity as well as other contaminants that are produced by natural processes and human activities.
Differences in boiling points provide the basis for purification of the indoor air by cooling it to cryogenic temperature that is accompanied by condensation and freezing of contaminants. For example, boiling temperature of oxygen is -183°C, nitrogen is -196°C, carbon dioxide sublime at temperature -78° C. Liquid temperature of most common hydrocarbons is above -82.5°C (CHa). It is also well know that most airborne microbes, bacteria, mold, spores and other living and mineral contaminants are affiliated with water and large hydrocarbon molecules. Therefore, full purification of outgoing air can be done by cooling of inflowing air inside an air conditioning system to cryogenic temperature followed by separation of liquid and solid contaminants. This method can produce chemically pure and fresh air without any traces of impurities.
In drawings which illustrate embodiments of the inventions, Figure 1 is the air conditioning system that produces cooling and purification of indoor air by injecting of mixture of oxygen and nitrogen at cryogenic temperature into outgoing air through the heat exchanger that is placed in the air passage, Figure 2 is the air conditioning system that comprises the cryogenic generator that is connected to the air passage of the air conditioning system, Figure 3 is the air conditioning system produces refreshment and cooling of indoor air by direct injection and purging a small compartment with fresh oxygen - nitrogen mixture .
In the Figure 1, that illustrates the preferred embodiment, the compressor 1 is connected by the air passage 2 to the cooling - purification module with the heat exchangers 4. The bypass 3 is connected to the main air passage 2. One opening of the heat exchanger 4 is connected through the regulation valves 5 and mixer 6 to the oxygen 7 and nitrogen 8 storage units, such called small capacity Dewars or large capacity tanks for bulk gases.
Other opening of the heat exchanger is provided with the nozzle 9. Hatches 10 on other side of the bypass separate the bypass 3 and major air passage 2. The air passage 2 and bypass 3 are equipped with the defrosting section 11 for removing of moisture and contaminants. To speed up defrosting and ensure sterilization both defrosting sections are equipped with the heat, ultraviolet or high frequency radiators 12 that are connected to the power supplies 13. Both defrosting sections 11 are separated from the main air passage 2 and bypass 3 by hatches 14. The outgoing air passage area is equipped with the heater 15. All valves, ports and radiators are connected electronically to a central control board (which is not shown in the Figure 1 ). Each defrosting section 11 is connected to the duct 16 to enable removal of water and other contaminants during defrosting of the heat exchanger 4.
During working cycle the compressor 1 directs inflowing air throughout the air passage 2 to the heat exchanger 4 whereby it is refreshed by injected mixture of oxygen and nitrogen. Heat exchange between injected gases and inflowing air takes place on the outer surfaces of the heat exchanger 4. As a result of this heat exchange, most contaminants are frozen or liquefied on the outer surface of the heat exchanger 4. Airborne microbes and bacteria, which are affiliated with moisture, are captured and hold by the outer surface of the heat exchanger 4 as well.
Environmental and temperature control is exercised by regulating of indoor air flow rate along the outer surface of the heat exchanger and flow rate of injected mixture of cooled to cryogenic temperature oxygen and nitrogen through the heat exchanger.
Outgoing air also can be preheated to required temperature by the heater 15. After that air is distributed by the air conditioning system to compartments.

Purification of indoor air results in accumulation of significant amount of contaminants on the surfaces of the heat exchanger 4. To maintain high level of efficiency of the air conditioning system the hatch 8 is closed when it required redirecting inflowing air into the bypass 3 whereby purification, refreshing and cooling of outgoing air is continued.
During this time the main air passage heat exchanger 4 is defrosted. The defrosting section 14 can be equipped with an infrared, ultraviolet or high frequency radiator 14 to speed up defrosting cycle. Water and other contaminants are disposed into the duct 16 and removed from the air conditioning system. After that airflow is redirected into the major air passage again to perform defrosting of the bypass section.
Injecting of cryogenic mixture of oxygen and nitrogen can result in overcooling of outgoing air. To reduce overcooling and energy consumption partial preheating of injected mixture of oxygen and nitrogen can be performed by utilization of energy of outdoor air. For this purpose the mixer 8 can be mounted outside of the air passage 2 or the heat exchanger 4 can be partially protruded through the main air passage 2 to interface with outdoor air. Both embodiments are illustrated in Figure 1 wherein the protruded heat exchanger 4 is shown in the main air passage.
The described above embodiment can also produce enrichment of indoor air with oxygen from 20-21% in the beginning to 21.1-25% by the end of a workday by proportional changing flow rates of injected oxygen and nitrogen. It will significantly reduce fatigue, increase productivity and improve health conditions.
This embodiment can be assembled with using standard subassemblies and units.
For example, the liquid nitrogen and oxygen Dewars models 03-CL-160-C and 03-CL-240-C with capacity of 160 and 240 liters of liquid gases consequently can be used for a single home air conditioning system. These Dewars will produce approximately 344,000 liters of fresh purified air based on expansion ration of liquid oxygen to gas as 1 to 860.
Fresh air supply and productivity of the proposed system depends on consumption of oxygen. For private homes it could be determined based on number of family members.
Above-mentioned Dewars with liquid gases might be located outside of a home to ensure safety. Control of an air conditioning system can be done from a computer that is placed conveniently inside a home.
Standard tanks for storage of bulk gases with capacity of 1,000 - 25,000 liters can be used for air conditioning systems for production facilities, schools, hospitals and office buildings.
The air conditioning system that is shown in Figure 2 illustrates another embodiment that produces purification and refreshing of indoor air with using the cryogenic generator that is connected to the air passage of the building with four floors wherein each floor is marked 17 through 20.

The air conditioning system comprises compressor 1 that directs inflowing air into the cryogenic generator 21. Outlet of the cryogenic generator 21 is connected to the heating section 15 whereby the outgoing air is preheated to required temperature. Each floor is equipped with the air inlet 22 for distribution of fresh purified air. Also each floor is equipped with outlets 23 of the exhaust passage 24 of the air conditioning system. The inflowing air passage 24 is equipped with the valve 25 to provide more outdoor air into the building to create excessive pressure inside compartments and compensate oxygen consumption. The cryogenic generator 21 is connected by the duct 16 to the unit 26 for collection of air contaminants. This unit is also equipped with the valve 27 that is used to dispose contaminants. The compressor 1, cryogenic generator 21, heating section 15, unit 26, valves 25 and 27 are connected electronically to the control board 28. The air conditioning system might be also equipped with the oxygen analyzers, temperature control units and other devises that execute temperature, moisture and contamination control to ensure proper function of the system.
During working cycle indoor air through the outlets 23 of the exhaust air passage 24 is directed by the compressor 1 into the cryogenic generator 21. The compressor can be provided also as a subassembly of the cryogenic generator 21. Indoor air is cooled down by the cryogenic generator 21. During cooling all contaminants are frozen or liquefied and separated from air. Solid or liquid contaminants are continuously or periodically disposed through the valve 27. Most contaminants can be extracted from air at -90° C.
Therefore, to complete partial purification of indoor air cooling cycle can be discontinued and outgoing air can be redirected into the heating section 15. However, to perform full purification and produce air, which will comprise mixture of chemically pure oxygen and nitrogen, cooling cycle should be continued to reduce temperature of oxygen to -183°C
and nitrogen to -196°C. After that liquid oxygen and nitrogen forwarded into the mixer wherein air with required concentration of oxygen and nitrogen is recreated and directed into the heating section I5.
This air conditioning system can be assembled with using the standard equipment and modules such as StirLIN-8 cryogenic generator or similar models, depending upon required productivity.
Direct injection of oxygen - nitrogen mixture into indoor air can simplify the air conditioning system for small compartments. Main features of such system are shown in Figure 3.
An air conditioning system shown if Figure 3 comprises a heat exchanger 4 that is connected by one opening through the regulation valves 5 and mixer 6 to the oxygen 7 and nitrogen 8 storage units, while other opening is provided with the pipe line 28 that is at least partially located inside the compartment 17 and equipped with the nozzle 9 and pan 29 to hold and disposed water.
The heat exchanger 4 can be located outside to utilize energy of outdoor air and preheat oxygen-nitrogen mixture or inside the compartment 17. Injected mixtures of oxygen and nitrogen would refresh indoor air and cool it down to required temperature while the pan 29 disposes water and other contaminants. This system can also produce partial purification of indoor air, significant refreshment and required cooling to create comfortable and healthy conditions for example inside a recreation room.
The standard dosing systems such as NORHOF LN2 can be used for regulation of oxygen and nitrogen flow rates in conjunction with LN Dewars with capacity from 5 to 3 5 liters.
Fresh air supply and productivity of the proposed system depends upon consumption of oxygen.
Below is example of calculation of consumption of fresh air for family of three persons:
It is well known that the average pair of human lungs can hold about 6 liters of air, but only small amount of it is used during normal breathing. 'The average-sized (70 kg.) adult mail has Tidal Volume (TV), or other word the amount of air breathed in or out during normal respiration, between 0.450 - 0.500 liter. At rest an average person makes from 15 to I 8 breaths per minute. While breathing this person exchanging about 9 liters of air thought his lungs. However, the human body consumes only 10% of this air, or 0.9 liter per minute. Therefore, 1.2 liter of fresh air per minute is required to supply the average person with fresh air and remove carbon dioxide by purging. However, to produce significant refreshment effect, dilute and remove contaminants by purging productivity of this system must be 5 -10 times greater. Based on the foregoing productivity of the proposed system can vary from 6 to 12 liter per person per minute. Therefore, two Dewars with total capacity about 344,000 liters can provide average person with fresh air for 20 - 40 days or family of three persons for about 7 -14 days around a clock.
Implementation of described above air conditioning method and systems will eliminate the root cause of "Sick building syndrome" and supply people who live and work in big polluted cities with fresh air. These systems also do not produce any pollution.
