Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Erzeugen von Dampf für eine Kabine für Dampfbäder gemäss dem Oberbegriff des unabhängigen Patentanspruchs 1.The present invention relates to a device for generating steam for a cabin for steam baths according to the preamble of independent claim 1.

Die Temperatur von Dampfbädern liegt im Bereich von 40 und 55o C. Damit sich bei diesen Temperaturen eine Sättigung einstellt, muss der Wassergehalt zwischen 0,05 und 0,09 kg Dampf und Wasser je kg trockene Luft liegen. Bei vielen bekannten Dampfbädern wird mittels Verdampfern aus Wasser heisser Wasserdampf erzeugt, und dieser gesättigte Wasserdampf wird in die Kabine eingeblasen. Dort findet eine Kondensation statt und aus dem Dampf bildet sich in der Luft Nebel. Die Regelung erfolgt mittels Temperaturmessung in der Kabine. So ist es auch verständlich, dass beim Aufwärmen der Kabinenluft und insbesondere der Kabinenwände zuerst eine starke Nebelbildung auftritt und auch relativ viel Kondenswasser an den Wänden der Kabine abtropft. Bei längerem Betrieb verschwindet der Nebel und zwar lässt sich dies nur dadurch erklären, dass die freiwerdende Kondensationswärme eine zusätzliche Erwärmung der Kabinenluft bewirkt und die eingestellte obere Grenztemperatur erreicht wird, ohne dass der für diese Temperatur notwendige Wassergehalt für gesättigte Luft erhalten werden kann. Dies zeigt sich auch deutlich aus dem i,x - Diagramm für feuchte Luft nach Mollier: Wenn beispielsweise bei einer Temperatur von 40° C ein Wassergehalt von 0,05 an der Grenzkurve liegt, so ist leicht zu verstehen, dass bei konstanter Enthalpie von 40 kcal/kg bei steigender Temperatur sofort das Gebiet mit ungesättigtem Gemisch erreicht wird, so dass zur Erreichung eines Nebels zusätzliches Wasser bei gleicher Temperatur hineinzuführen ist, siehe auch Fig. 4.The temperature of steam baths is in the range of 40 and 55 o C. In order to achieve saturation at these temperatures, the water content must be between 0.05 and 0.09 kg of steam and water per kg of dry air. In many known steam baths, hot water vapor is generated from water by means of evaporators, and this saturated water vapor is blown into the cabin. Condensation takes place there and the vapor forms fog in the air. The regulation takes place by means of temperature measurement in the cabin. So it is understandable that when the cabin air and especially the cabin walls are warmed up, a lot of fog first forms occurs and also a relatively large amount of condensation drips off the walls of the cabin. The fog disappears during long periods of operation, and this can only be explained by the fact that the condensation heat released causes additional heating of the cabin air and the set upper limit temperature is reached without the water content required for this temperature being obtained for saturated air. This can also be clearly seen from the i, x diagram for humid air according to Mollier: If, for example, at a temperature of 40 ° C there is a water content of 0.05 on the limit curve, it is easy to understand that with a constant enthalpy of 40 kcal / kg as the temperature rises, the area with unsaturated mixture is reached immediately, so that additional water at the same temperature must be introduced to achieve a mist, see also FIG. 4.

Dies widerspricht den bis heute bekannten und im Handel erhältlichen Anlagen, wo zusätzlicher Wasserdampf in die Kabine hineingeblasen wird, der im Raum kondensiert und damit die Luft erwärmt. Dies führt auch sofort zur Bildung von Nebel, der sich aber an den kühleren Orten niederschlägt, so dass schliesslich lediglich eine höhere Temperatur registriert wird, wodurch die Dampferzeugung unterbrochen wird.This contradicts the systems that are still known and commercially available, where additional steam is blown into the cabin, which condenses in the room and thus heats the air. This also immediately leads to the formation of fog, which, however, precipitates in the cooler places, so that ultimately only a higher temperature is registered, as a result of which the steam generation is interrupted.

Es ist deshalb eine Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine Vorrichtung zu schaffen, mit der Nebel in die Kabine hineingeblasen wird und die Temperatur im Raum kontrolliert werden kann, so dass über längere Zeit der Nebel im Raum verbleibt.It is therefore an object of the invention to provide a device with which mist is blown into the cabin and the temperature in the room can be controlled so that the mist remains in the room for a long time.

Erfindungsgemäss wird dies durch die Merkmale im kennzeichnenden Teil des unabhängigen Patentanspruchs 1 erreicht.According to the invention this is achieved by the features in the characterizing part of independent claim 1.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand der Zeichnung erläutert. Es zeigen:

  • Fig. 1 einen Aufriss einer Dampfkabine mit vorgebautem Schrank für die Dampferzeugung,
  • Fig. 2 eine Schnittansicht gemäss der Schnittlinie II-II in Fig. 1,
  • Fig. 3 eine Ansicht des Schrankes für die Dampferzeugung von links in Fig. 1 bei entfernter Seitenwand betrachtet, und
  • Fig. 4 ein Diagramm für feuchte Luft nach Mollier.
An embodiment of the invention is explained below with reference to the drawing. Show it:
  • 1 is an elevation of a steam cabin with a built-in cabinet for steam generation,
  • 2 is a sectional view along the section line II-II in Fig. 1,
  • Fig. 3 is a view of the cabinet for steam generation viewed from the left in Fig. 1 with the side wall removed, and
  • Fig. 4 is a diagram for moist air according to Mollier.

Die Kabine 10 gemäss Fig. 1 und 2 besteht aus drei Teilen 11, 12, 13, die bei horizontalen Trennungsebenen 14, 15 wasserdicht verbunden sind. Der unterste Teil 11 weist einen einstückig mit Sitzbank 16 und Seitenwänden 17a, 17b verbundenen Boden 18 auf. Durch diese Unterteilung wird erreicht, dass sich alle Berührungsgebiete eines nackten Körpers mit den Wandungen hygienisch sauber reinigen lassen und keine Ritzen und Spalten oder Verbindungsstellen aufweisen, die als Brutstellen von Bakterien oder Sporen wirken können. Im Grundriss gemäss Fig. 2 zeigt die Sitzbank 16 die Form eines Eckbankes. Unter Weglassung der rechten Seitenwand 19 könnte eine gegengleich gefertigte Kabine mit dieser Kabine verbunden werden, so dass ein doppelt so grosser Raum zur Verfügung stehen würde.1 and 2 consists of three parts 11, 12, 13, the horizontal separation levels 14, 15th are connected watertight. The lowermost part 11 has a floor 18 which is integrally connected to the bench 16 and side walls 17a, 17b. This subdivision ensures that all areas of contact of a naked body with the walls can be cleaned hygienically and have no cracks and crevices or connection points that can act as breeding sites for bacteria or spores. 2 shows the seat 16 in the form of a corner seat. If the right side wall 19 is omitted, a cabin manufactured in the same way could be connected to this cabin, so that a room twice as large would be available.

Die Türe 20 ist in üblicher Weise an der in Fig. 2 unten gezeichneten Vorderwand 21 angeflanscht und wie in dieser Bauart von Nasszellen üblich, mit einer Schwelle 22 und einer nicht dargestellten Dampfdichtung versehen. Das Gewände 23 und der Sturz 24 sind, wie insbesondere in Fig. 2 dargestellt, mit nach aussen vorstehenden Flanschen 25a, 25b versehen. Dadurch wird erreicht, dass die entweichende mit Wasser gesättigte Luft am oberen Bogenflansch 25a und am öffnungsseitigen Seitenflansch 25b vorüberstreicht und infolge der Abkühlung an diesen Flächen auskondensiert. Das Kondensat rinnt durch die Bogenform des Bogenflansches 25a nach beiden Seiten hin nach unten und kann nicht tropfen. Am Boden kann dieses Kondenswasser gesammelt und mit dem Ablauf 26 zusammengeführt werden.The door 20 is flanged in the usual manner on the front wall 21 shown in FIG. 2 below and, as is usual in this type of wet room, is provided with a threshold 22 and a steam seal (not shown). The walls 23 and the lintel 24, as shown in particular in FIG. 2, are provided with flanges 25a, 25b projecting outwards. It is thereby achieved that the escaping air saturated with water sweeps past the upper arch flange 25a and the opening-side flange 25b and condenses on these surfaces as a result of the cooling. The condensate runs downward on both sides through the arc shape of the arc flange 25a and cannot drops. This condensed water can be collected at the bottom and brought together with the outlet 26.

Durch diese Flansche 25a, 25b wird neben der Türe eine Nische 27 gebildet, in die der Schrank für Dampferzeugung und Luftzirkulation eingebaut werden kann. Der Schrank 30 gemäss Fig. 3 weist in seinem unteren Teil einen drucklosen Wasserverdampfer 31 bekannter Bauart auf. Im mittleren Teil findet sich ein Ansaug- und Mischrohr 32 mit eingebautem Ventilator 33, Dampfzuführungsrohr 34 und einem Lufterhitzer 35. Im oberen Teil ist ein Abluftrohr 41 mit einem Filter 36 an der Ansaugseite 42. Im Bereich des Lüftungsausganges 37 befindet sich der Anschluss 43 eines Umluftrohres 38 mit eingebauter einstellbarer Drosselklappe 39. Das Umluftrohr 38 mündet in Stromrichtung stromaufwärts des Ventilators 33 in das Ansaug- und Mischrohr 32.These flanges 25a, 25b form a niche 27 next to the door, in which the cabinet for steam generation and air circulation can be installed. The cabinet 30 according to FIG. 3 has in its lower part an unpressurized water evaporator 31 of a known type. In the middle part there is an intake and mixing pipe 32 with built-in fan 33, steam supply pipe 34 and an air heater 35. In the upper part there is an exhaust pipe 41 with a filter 36 on the suction side 42. In the area of the ventilation outlet 37 there is the connection 43 one Air recirculation pipe 38 with built-in adjustable throttle valve 39. The air recirculation pipe 38 opens into the intake and mixing pipe 32 upstream of the fan 33.

In für Luftansaug- 44 und Abgabeöffnung 45 üblicher Weise sind die Oeffnungendurch Jalousien verdeckt.In the usual way for air intake 44 and discharge opening 45, the openings are covered by blinds.

Die Wirkungsweise wird nachstehend anhand des Diagrammes in Fig. 4 erläutert. In diesem Diagramm zeigt die Abszisse den Wassergehalt x kg Wasser pro kg trockene Luft, die Ordinate die Enthalpie von (1+x) kg feuchter Luft. Die Ordinatenachse enthält vom Eispunkt E beginnend Enthalpien der trockenen Luft, dabei bedeutet die Linie i = o trockene Luft und Wasser bei 0°, und ist nach rechts unten geneigt dargestellt, damit verläuft die 0 C-Isotherme der mit Dampf gesättigten Luft waagerecht. Die Geraden für i = konstant liegen zu i = 0° parallel. Die Sättigungslinie S trennt die im oberen Teil befindliche Partie für ungesättigte Dampf-Gas-Gemische vor der im unteren Teil befindlichen Partie für gesättigte Dampf-Gas-Gemische.The mode of operation is explained below using the diagram in FIG. 4. In this diagram, the abscissa shows the water content x kg of water per kg of dry air, the ordinate the enthalpy of (1 + x) kg of moist air. The ordinate axis contains enthalpies from the ice point E. dry air, the line i = o means dry air and water at 0 ° and is shown inclined to the bottom right, so that the 0 C isotherm of the air saturated with steam runs horizontally. The straight lines for i = constant are parallel to i = 0 °. The saturation line S separates the lot in the upper part for unsaturated steam-gas mixtures from the lot in the lower part for saturated steam-gas mixtures.

Für den Schrank 30 gemäss Fig. 3 und die Kabine 10 gemäss Fig. 1 und 2 werden folgende Ausgangsdaten festgelegt: Die Luft in der Kabine habe eine Temperatur von 42°C mit einem Wassergehalt x = 0,045. Die Umgebungsluft habe eine Temperatur von 22°C und einen Wassergehalt x = 0,006. Die Drosselklappe 39 sei derart eingestellt, dass das halbe Volumen Luft, das durch den Ventilator 33 eingeblasen wird, durch das Umluftrohr 38 und der gleiche Anteil Frischluft aus der Umgebung herrühre.The following initial data are defined for the cabinet 30 according to FIG. 3 and the cabin 10 according to FIGS. 1 and 2: The air in the cabin has a temperature of 42 ° C. with a water content x = 0.045. The ambient air has a temperature of 22 ° C and a water content x = 0.006. The throttle valve 39 is set in such a way that half the volume of air that is blown in by the fan 33 comes from the recirculation pipe 38 and the same proportion of fresh air from the environment.

Im Diagramm findet sich für die Luft aus der-Umgebung der Punkt PL bei 22° und x = 0,006. Die Luft aus der Kabine findet sich im Punkt PU bei 42° und x = 0,045. Da es sich um gleiche Volumina handelt, liegt der Mischpunkt PM in der Mitte der Verbindungslinie PL-PU. Dieses Dampf-Gas-Gemisch von 32° und x = 0,0255 wird als ungesättigtes Gemisch vom Ventilator 33 gefördert. Es findet somit am Ventilator keine Wasserabscheidung durch Kondensation statt: Aus dem Dampfzuführungsrohr 34 wird Nassdampf ohne Druck zugeführt und vermischt sich mit dem Gemisch. Infolge der Enthalpie iw = 633 kcal/kg des Dampfes bei 95° gemäss dem Wert aus der Gleichung

Figure imgb0001
verschiebt sich der Punkt PM auf der Geraden G nach rechts. Bei einem Wassergehalt x = 0,031 wird die Sättigungslinie S erreicht je nach Leistung des Verdampfers 31 wird somit ein Nebel mit höherer Temperatur als 32°C in die Kabine geblasen. Wenn die gewünschte Temperatur von 42°C nicht erreicht wird, kann das erhaltene Dampf-Gas-Gemisch durch den.Lufterhitzer 35 zusätzlich erwärmt werden. Damit wird, wie gefordert, eine dauernde gleichmässige Luftfeuchtigkeit mit einem Wassergehalt von etwa 0,06 kg Dampf und Wasser pro kg trockene Luft erhalten. Durch eine Temperaturregelung mit einem Raumthermostaten kann dieser Zustand lang Zeit beibehalten werden.The diagram shows the point PL for the air from the environment at 22 ° and x = 0.006. The air from the cabin is found at point PU at 42 ° and x = 0.045. Since the volumes are the same, the mixing point PM lies in the middle of the connecting line PL-PU. This steam-gas mixture of 32 ° and x = 0.0255 is used as an unsaturated mixture by fan 33 promoted. There is therefore no water separation by condensation on the fan: wet steam is fed from the steam feed pipe 34 without pressure and mixes with the mixture. As a result of the enthalpy i w = 633 kcal / kg of the steam at 95 ° according to the value from the equation
Figure imgb0001
 The point PM on the line G shifts to the right. With a water content x = 0.031, the saturation line S is reached, depending on the power of the evaporator 31, a fog with a temperature higher than 32 ° C. is thus blown into the cabin. If the desired temperature of 42 ° C is not reached, the steam / gas mixture obtained can be additionally heated by the air heater 35. As required, a constant, constant air humidity with a water content of approximately 0.06 kg steam and water per kg dry air is obtained. This condition can be maintained for a long time by controlling the temperature with a room thermostat.

Vorteilhaft wirkt sich auch aus, dass das zugeführte Gas-Dampf-Gemisch einen Anteil Frischluft enthält, so dass in der Kabine 10 eine ausreichende Lüftung gewährleistet ist.Another advantage is that the gas-steam mixture supplied contains a proportion of fresh air, so that adequate ventilation is ensured in the cabin 10.
