Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a laundry dryer with a heat pump system according to the preamble of claim 1. Further, the present invention relates to a controller for a laundry dryer.
  • the operation of the laundry dryer with the heat pump system includes two working phases, namely a transitory phase and a steady state phase.
  • the transitory phase is the initial phase after the heat pump system has been switched on.
  • the temperatures of the air and the refrigerant are at ambient temperature.
  • the temperatures of the air and the refrigerant increase up to a desired level.
  • the temperatures of the drying air and the refrigerant are kept quite constant. For example, said temperatures are kept constant by means of a compressor cooling fan or an auxiliary condenser until the laundry becomes dry.
  • the heat pump is in unbalance, because the same drying air stream is cooled in the evaporator and heated in the condenser, where more heating capacity is available on the side of the refrigerant circuit.
  • the compressor cooling fan blows ambient air onto the compressor case.
  • the auxiliary condenser is an additional heat exchanger between the refrigerant and an auxiliary cold source.
  • the auxiliary condenser is arranged downstream the condenser.
  • the refrigerant is further cooled down, wherein heat is transferred to a source, which may be water or ambient air.
  • a source which may be water or ambient air.
  • the cooling capacity is increased. Also the balancing between the cooling and heating capacity is increased.
  • the condenser is a heat exchanger at the high pressure side of the refrigerant circuit.
  • the evaporator is a heat exchanger at the low pressure side of the refrigerant circuit.
  • the low pressure side of the refrigerant circuit extends from the outlet of the expansion means, e.g. a capillary tube or an adjustable valve, to the inlet of the compressor.
  • the high pressure side of the refrigerant circuit extends from the outlet of the compressor to the inlet of the expansion means.
  • An internal heat exchanger can be used to cool down the refrigerant between the condenser and expansion means and to heat up the refrigerant at the outlet of the evaporator.
  • the internal heat exchanger allows the refrigerant to enter the evaporator in more favourable conditions.
  • the vapour quality is lower and a part of the refrigerant is in the liquid phase, wherein the cooling capacity of the evaporator is increased. Otherwise the temperature of the refrigerant at the outlet of the low pressure side of the internal heat exchanger, which enters the inlet of the compressor, is higher, and the power required to the compressor increases as well. If cooling capacity increases more than the power required by the compressor, then the internal heat exchanger improves heat pump efficiency.
  • the internal heat exchanger in a heat pump system of a tumble dryer allows a shorter transitory phase on the one hand and an improved heat pump performance during the steady state phase on the other hand.
  • the internal heat exchanger can additionally improve the heat pump performance more than usual, if said internal heat exchanger is used to flood the evaporator, so that a part of the refrigerant flowing through the evaporator is maintained in the liquid phase. This occurs, if the superheating phase in the evaporator is provided at the low pressure side of the internal heat exchanger.
  • Condensed refrigerant is cooled down as usual in the high pressure side of the internal heat exchanger, while in the low pressure side of the internal heat exchanger the vaporization of the refrigerant is completed and the superheating is performed. Therefore the evaporator improves its cooling performance, because the flooding allows a big heat exchange coefficient of the refrigerant in the liquid phase and the internal heat exchanger can improve the refrigerant sub-cooling at the high pressure side, since at the low pressure side of the internal heat exchanger the refrigerant can exchange both latent and sensible heat, so that more energy is available.
  • EP 999 302 B1 discloses a laundry dryer with a closed process air cycle and a refrigerant circuit.
  • a heat flow correction element is incorporated into the refrigerant circuit between the evaporator and the compressor.
  • the heat flow correction element allows a heat exchange between the refrigerant on the one hand and the process air and/or the ambient air on the other hand.
  • EP 1 811 076 discloses a drying machine capable of effectively eliminating confinement of heat while a drying time of an object to be dried is reduced, and the drying machine includes a refrigerant circuit constituted by successively connecting a compressor, a radiator, a pressure reducing unit and an evaporator n an annular form via a pipe; an air circulation path which allows a fan to perform air circulation to send air from the radiator through the storage chamber to the evaporator and to again return the air to the radiator; and a heat exchanger for performing heat exchange between the outside air and the refrigerant of an intermediate pressure section of the compressor between a refrigerant outlet side of the evaporator and a refrigerant discharge side of the compressor.
  • the object of the present invention is achieved by the laundry dryer with the heat pump system according to claim 1.
  • the additional heat exchanger is connected between the outlet of second heat exchanger and the inlet of the compressor and is controlled or controllable by the temperature of the refrigerant in at least one position of the refrigerant circuit and/or by the temperature of the drying air.
  • the present invention is based on the additional heat exchanger cooling down the refrigerant before compressor suction, wherein said additional heat exchanger is controlled by the temperature of the refrigerant and/or by the temperature of the drying air.
  • the required power of the compressor decreases by the reduced temperature of the refrigerant after passing the additional heat exchanger.
  • the additional heat exchanger corresponds with at least one ambient air fan and is provided for a heat exchange between the refrigerant on the one hand and ambient air and/or cooling water on the other hand.
