  • the invention relates to a process thus specified, wherein, in said machine as specified, a nominal drying process for drying a nominal amount of the humid articles is scheduled for execution, said nominal process requiring a nominal amount of energy input during execution.
  • a machine as embodied in a household appliance and a process of this generic type are disclosed in WO 2008/107266 A1 .
  • the machine disclosed is a household laundry dryer whose heat pump is a compressor-type heat pump which is characterized by having a refrigerant which is guided in a closed refrigerant guide. To effect an absorption of heat into the associated heat sink, the refrigerant is made to evaporate in the heat sink, and to release heat from the associated heat source, the refrigerant is made to liquefy in the heat source.
  • the gaseous refrigerant is compressed as it passes from the heat sink to the heat source, and the liquid refrigerant is expanded in an expansion system as it returns from the heat source to the heat sink.
  • special selections of the compressor comprised by the heat pump, and the refrigerant are made.
  • Documents WO 2009/053257 A1 and EP 2 138 627 A1 also disclose machines and processes for drying articles by process air. According to the former document, a special selection of the refrigerant in view of operational and environmental criteria is disclosed. According to the latter document, means are provided to handle condensate which is produced in the heat sink from humidity extracted from the articles being treated, which articles are laundry being dried, in the machine disclosed, and handling concurrently particulate impurities in the form of lint which always occurs upon operating a machine dedicated to drying wet laundry.
  • the process air used for drying the articles is guided in a first circuit that substantially closed in itself, meaning that, on one hand, no substantial and intentional exchange of air between an ambient of the respective machine and the interior of the process air guide is provided, but, on the other hand, there is neither any tight seal which would bar any exchange or any means to change the pressure of the process air in relation to the ambient pressure, except a blower which will create some slight pressure drop through the process air guide to enable the desired flow of air. Yet, some minor exchange of air may be provided by a controllable flap or the like on purpose of enabling to eject excess heat from the process air guide, for example.
  • the refrigerant circulates in a circuit which is generally closed by the best available means against any leaking of refrigerant.
  • most refrigerants commonly used are more or less problematic for reasons of environment protection or even operational safety.
  • the thermodynamic process to be executed by use of the refrigerant requires retaining prerequisite conditions within the refrigerant circuit over a very substantial period of time that may amount to more than ten years in the case of the machine being a household appliance, precluding any substantial loss of refrigerant from the circuit through such amount of years.
  • Such slight superheating of the refrigerant is provided by having a temperature of the refrigerant upon exiting the evaporator exceed an evaporation temperature of the refrigerant upon exit, meaning the evaporation temperature at the internal pressure prevailing at the exit of the evaporator, by a few degrees, meaning 2 °C to 4 °C as an example.
  • Any superheating in excess of the measure motivated by the safety reasons set out above remains undesired.
  • any superheat implies an increase in outlet pressure at the compressor and a reduced mass flow of refrigerant through the compressor.
  • the temperature prevailing at the exit of the evaporator in a cooling application like a refrigerator or a climate-control appliance marks the local maximum temperature; any increase in superheat would imply an increase in that maximum temperature and a consequential limitation in cooling power offered by the evaporator.
  • cooling of the compressor which is routinely provided by the refrigerant may be reduced as well.
  • a nominal drying process for drying a nominal amount of the humid articles is scheduled for execution, said nominal process requiring a nominal amount of energy input during execution, it is to be understood that it is a routine matter of assessing pertinent functional data of such machines to evaluate the performance of a machine in a predetermined nominal drying process, as a matter of comparability between competing machines for customer information and other purposes.
  • Such nominal drying process will be defined by specifying a predetermined amount of laundry consisting of a predetermined type of textile and to be provided in a predetermined state of humidity, and scheduling to dry that amount of laundry in a machine to be assessed by selecting a drying program provided and suitable for drying textiles as present in that amount of laundry.

  • thermodynamic processes each include two interacting thermodynamic processes, the first process running in the first circuit to evaporate, transport and re-condense humidity from the articles to be dried by circulating process air, and the second process running in the second circuit to pump heat from a heat sink which does the re-condensing of humidity extracted from the articles to a heat source which provides heat to the process air for doing the evaporation of humidity yet prevailing in the articles.
  • the present invention relies on exploiting additional degrees of freedom in designing a heat pump in a dryer.
  • increase in temperature of the process air upon entering the heat sink implies, assuming a drying process running in a stationary state, an increase of the maximum temperature
  • the increase in temperature of the process air upon entering the heat sink is accomplished by increasing the maximum temperature of the refrigerant in the heat sink, implying an increase in superheating the refrigerant.
  • the invention avoids excess cooling of the process air in the process air circuit, to maintain or even increase a maximal capability for transporting humidity from the articles to be dried to the heat sink.
  • the increase in superheating may be implemented by adjusting the restriction of the expander in the heat pump, either as a matter of choice during development, or as a matter of controlling a variable restriction.
  • the increased restriction implies a reduction in temperature of the refrigerant upon exiting the expander and entering the heat sink which is readily utilized to improve condensation of humidity from the process air to contribute even more to increase in the capability to transport humidity.
  • a positive effect obtained is that the refrigerant emerges from the expander to enter the heat sink at a reduced temperature, thus increasing the temperature difference between the process air and the refrigerant and increasing the effectivity of heat transfer between these fluids.
  • Another positive effect is an increase in extraction of heat from the process air in the heat sink, resulting in a reduction of process air temperature upon exiting the heat sink and implying an increase in extraction of humidity from the process air. In total, this results in an overall improvement in effectivity as an immediate consequence.
  • the decrease in refrigerant temperature entering the heat sink incurs a decrease in refrigerant mass flow, thus limiting the total cooling effect on the process air and keeping its temperature at an advantageous level.
  • the temperature of the refrigerant upon leaving the compressor which is the maximum temperature of the refrigerant through the whole heat pump, the increased superheating results in another increase which in turn improves the heat transfer to the process air in the heat source.
  • Such limitation may be necessary to keep the temperature of the refrigerant from exceeding a threshold set from thermodynamic or safety considerations.
  • a limited heating power will keep the process air from absorbing its maximal load of humidity even if its temperature upon exiting the treatment chamber is maintained at a desired level; the problem is that the process air will be less than saturated with humidity, thus restricting the transport of humidity from the treatment chamber to the heat sink.
  • the advantages set out above are attained in a range of superheat between a superheat of 6 °C and a superheat of 22 °C, with preferred ranges as specified hereinbelow.
  • the heat pump may include means for stabilizing the composition of the refrigerant like drying and absorbing agents for catching spurious impurities like residuals from manufacturing and cooling means for bleeding excess heat from the heat pump like an additional heat exchanger.
  • the process air circuit may additionally include flaps or valves for partial exchange of process air, or another additional cooling means.
  • the system as a whole may also include control and sensor means, in accordance with pertinent knowledge of a person of ordinary skill in the art.
  • R 290, R134a, R152a, R407C, R410A, and R744 agents designated in accordance with usual DIN/ASHRAE practice as R 290, R134a, R152a, R407C, R410A, and R744, may be applied in accordance with the invention.
  • R290 is the hydrocarbon compound propane which could require dedicated fire hazard protection means for its use
  • R744 is carbon dioxide which would possibly require much more complex heat pump circuitry
  • the other compounds are fluorinated hydrocarbon compounds, or mixtures of such. All of these fluorinated hydrocarbon compounds and mixtures are well suited for the purpose of the invention, and would not require complex heat pump circuitry or fire hazard protection like R290. Yet, some of these compounds and mixtures may be regarded as problematic in view of their impact upon release into the environment.
  • the superheat is selected at a value between 8°C and 16°C. In an even more preferred embodiment, the superheat is selected at about 12°C. It has been established, in accordance with the invention, that the advantages referred to above are attained to a particularly great extent if the superheat is selected between 8°C and 16°C, and around 12°C in particular.
  • the inventive machine is embodied as a household appliance.
  • the machine may be a laundry dryer or laundry washer-dryer.
  • At least one of the heat source and the heat sink is a counter flow heat exchanger, with the refrigerant and the process air passing such heat exchanger substantially in counter-flow.
  • the feature of counter-flow will generally not necessarily have to be followed into the smallest detail of the heat exchanger; for example, the feature may be broken to an insubstantial extent by certain minor parts of heat exchanger tubing being arranged to transport refrigerant in a direction more or less vertical to the direction of the process air traversing the heat exchanger around that part of the tubing.
  • the treating chamber is a rotatable drum. This qualifies the invention for embodying in the form of a tumble dryer according to common laundry drying technology.
  • an additional cooling means is associated for cooling said heat pump, and wherein said operating unit is provided to operate said cooling means for limiting a temperature in said heat pump to a maximum temperature.
  • operation of the heat pump may be stabilized in a controlled manner even if dissipation of heat by reasonably unavoidable thermal losses does not suffice in dissipating an amount equal to such energy input.
  • such cooling means comprises a second blower for passing cooling air along the heat pump and operable by the operating unit, and a temperature sensor for sensing the temperature of heat pump to be limited and connected to said operating unit.
  • the process for drying articles is structured into an initialization phase wherein operating temperatures of the refrigerant upon entering and exiting the heat source and the heat sink vary, and a quasi-stationary phase wherein a majority of the operating temperatures remains without major variation.
  • the process for drying articles is structured in that at least during a quasi-stationary phase, a temperature of the refrigerant upon exiting the compressor is retained near a predetermined maximum temperature by additional cooling applied to the heat pump. Based on observing that the temperature of the refrigerant upon exiting the compressor is the highest temperature within the system containing the interacting thermodynamic processes, it is preferred to impose the thermal limitation to stabilize the system on that highest temperature. Even more preferred, the additional cooling is applied by passing cooling air along the heat pump in general and along the compressor in particular, in addition. Still more preferred, the maximum temperature (applicable to the temperature of the refrigerant upon exiting the compressor, being the highest temperature in the system) is between 90°C and 100°C.
  • the articles to be dried by application of the invention are items of laundry. Even more preferred these items of laundry are tumbled through the process air, to obtain thorough interaction between the process air and the humidity contained in and to be extracted from the items.
  • a drying machine 1 comprises, generally disposed in a housing 1, a treating chamber 2 as embodied in a rotatable drum 2 to contain humid articles 3, piece of laundry 3 in particular, to be dried by being tumbled in a flow of warm process air by rotating drum 2 which is drive by electric drive 4.
  • the process air flows through process air guide 5, driven by first blower 6.
  • the first blower 6 is driven by electric drive 4, as indicated by arrows pointing from drive 4 to drum 2 and first blower 6, respectively.
  • the warm process air heats the pieces of laundry 3 and picks up steam evaporated from water contained in the laundry 3.
  • the humid process air flows through lint filter 7 where the process air is scavenged and lint that is small particulate matter including fibres released from the laundry 3 is retained.
  • the humid process air is subjected to cooling in cooler 8, to condense humidity from the process air.
  • Condensate thus formed precipitates on heat exchanging surfaces of cooler 8 and flows to condensate collector 9 for later disposal.
  • the process air thus stripped of humidity flows to heater 10 to be heated again, and is forwarded to drum 2 again to pick up more humidity from laundry 3 by the first blower 6, and to complete its circulation.
  • the cooler 8 and the heater 10 are both heat exchangers which exchange heat between the process air and a refrigerant which circulates in closed circuit through a refrigerant guide 11, and in counter-flow to the process air.
  • the refrigerant is selected from a group comprising agents specified as R 290, R134a, R152a, R407C, R410A, and R744 in accordance with usual DIN/ASHRAE practice, with R407C being the preferred selection.
  • R 407C is a mixture of fluorinated hydrocarbon compounds.
  • the refrigerant enters the cooler 8 at a low internal pressure and in a state partly liquid and partly gaseous.
  • the cooler 8 By picking up heat from the process air, the refrigerant is fully evaporated to form a gas and superheated to a predetermined extent for reasons to be elaborated upon subsequently. Due to its function to evaporate the refrigerant, the cooler 8 is also termed the “evaporator” 8 according to usual practice. Having exited cooler 8, the gaseous refrigerant reaches compressor 12, preferredly embodied in a rotary piston compressor 12, and is compressed to an elevated internal pressure. This compression is performed substantially adiabatically, to result in a substantial temperature rise within the refrigerant. After exiting the compressor 12, the gaseous refrigerant enters the heater 10 where heat is picked up from the refrigerant by the process air, thereby condensing the refrigerant into liquid form.
  • the refrigerant heater 10 Due to its function to condense the refrigerant heater 10 is also termed the "condenser” according to usual practice. Having exited heater 10, the refrigerant flows through an expander 13 as embodied in a capillary 13, an orifice 13 or a valve 13 (which may be controllable), wherein the refrigerant undergoes substantially isenthalpic expansion to reduce both its internal pressure and temperature, to attain again the state partly liquid and partly gaseous as initially, to complete a full circulation through refrigerant guide 11.
  • an expander 13 as embodied in a capillary 13, an orifice 13 or a valve 13 (which may be controllable), wherein the refrigerant undergoes substantially isenthalpic expansion to reduce both its internal pressure and temperature, to attain again the state partly liquid and partly gaseous as initially, to complete a full circulation through refrigerant guide 11.
  • the heat pump 8, 10, 11, 12, 13 may contain additional components like a scavenger to absorb undesired impurities from the refrigerant or a storage device to contain an extended amount of refrigerant as well as additional heat exchangers that may be essential for a heat pump 8, 10, 11, 12, 13 that uses R744 which is carbon dioxide as a refrigerant in a so-called trans-critical cycle.
  • means to bleed excess heat from heat pump 8, 10, 11, 12, 13 include a second blower 15 which forwards cooling air ingested from an ambient of drying machine 1 to the compressor 12 through coolant guide 16, and returns such cooling air to the ambient.
  • Operation of second blower 15 is effected by operating unit 14 is response to measurements of the refrigerant's temperature upon exiting compressor 12 b temperature sensor 17.
  • signal and control lines connecting operating unit 14 to second blower 15 and sensor 17 are indicated by dashed lines; other connections to operating unit 14 not being shown for the sake of clarity.
  • Fig. 2 shows the heat pump part of the machine shown in Fig. 1 , with some points shown as black dots indicating where operating temperatures have been registered over time for several superheats during experimental drying processes.
  • Fig. 3 Data apparent from Fig. 3 have been taken in a machine wherein the superheat had been set to 2 °C by appropriate selection of operational parameters of expander 13.
  • a superheat of 2 °C may be understood to be representative for common practice in heat pump design, selecting the superheat just high enough to rule out any nun-gaseous refrigerant to reach compressor 12.
  • the actual superheat is shown as the temperature difference between curves 19, which is the refrigerant temperature upon exiting cooler 8, and 18, which is the refrigerant temperature upon entering cooler 8.
  • Curves 20 and 21 indicate the process air temperatures upon entering (curve 20) and exiting (curve 21) cooler 8.
  • the sharp and short variation of all temperatures shown in Fig. 3 is caused by pouring cleaning liquid (namely, condensate collected and stored through the previous part of the drying process) over the surfaces of the cooler 8 exposed to the process air, to remove precipitated lint from these surfaces.
  • cleaning liquid namely, condensate collected and stored through the previous part of the drying process
  • Fig. 4 Data apparent from Fig. 4 have been taken with a superheat set to 12 °C, much above a superheat as suggested by common practice. It may be noted that due to the increased restriction of expander 13 all curves show a gradual and extended increase to quasi-stationary levels. Ripples present on the curves indicate activity of second blower 15 which has been actuated upon evaluating signals from temperature sensor 17 to bleed excess heat from the heat pump and keep refrigerant temperature at or below a predetermined maximum.
  • the most striking feature of Fig. 4 is the large increase in refrigerant temperature upon exiting compressor 12 from some 65 °C according to Fig. 3 to some 95 °C according to Fig. 4 , resulting in a substantial increase in heating capability to heat the process air.
  • the temperature level of the process air upon exiting cooler 8 (namely, curve 21) has been maintained at the level indicated in Fig. 3 showing that the increased pickup of humidity from the batch of laundry is accompanied by an increased extraction of humidity in cooler 8 resulting in a much faster drying process.
  • the process shown in Fig. 4 takes 20,5 minutes only.
  • the machine configuration of Fig. 4 will require only 0,246 kWh/kg instead of 0,285 kWh/kg for the configuration of Fig. 3 .
  • Fig. 5 Experimental data on total energy input required in relation to superheat are summarized in Fig. 5 .
  • Apparent ripples in the data may be attributed to small changes in ambient conditions of the machine in its test environment, and to fluctuations in preset parameters.
  • these data confirm that a selection of superheat absent from recommendations of normal practice yields very considerable profits in terms of energy input required for a drying process. Accordingly, a range of superheat to attain lowest energy input required is set from 6 °C to 22 °C, with a preferred range from 8 °C to 16 °C, and a particularly preferred value of superheat at or around 12 °C.
