Abstract

Flüssigkeiten zum Nassbehandeln von Wäschestücken werden vielfach mit Dampf aufgeheizt. Dazu wird der Dampf mit hoher Geschwindigkeit durch eine Düse (30) der aufzuheizenden Flüssigkeit direkt zugeführt. Aufgrund der hohen Geschwindigkeit, mit der der Dampf in die aufgeheizte Flüssigkeit einströmt, entstehen starke Geräusche sowie Schwingungen und Vibrationen. Um mindestens die Geräusche zu reduzieren, ist es bereits bekannt, zusätzlich Druckluft zuzuführen. Das verschlechtert den Wärmeübergang.Liquids for wet treatment of laundry are often heated with steam. For this purpose, the steam is fed at high speed through a nozzle (30) of the liquid to be heated directly. Due to the high speed at which the steam flows into the heated liquid, strong noises as well as vibrations and vibrations occur. To reduce at least the noise, it is already known to additionally supply compressed air. This worsens the heat transfer.

Die Erfindung sieht es vor, in die Düse (30) eine kleine Menge der aufzuheizenden Flüssigkeit einzusaugen und dadurch in der Düse (30) ein Kondensat-Dampfgemisch zu bilden. Alternativ oder zusätzlich kann hinter der Düse (30) ein Strömungsteiler vorgesehen sein, der die Strömungsgeschwindigkeit des Dampfs bzw. Dampf-Kondensatgemisches erhöht. Hierdurch und/oder durch die Bildung eines Dampf-Kondensatgemisches in der Düse (30) werden die Geräuschentwicklung beim Einleiten des Dampfs in die aufzuheizende Flüssigkeit sowie Schwingungen und Vibrationen ohne die Zufuhr von Druckluft verringert.

Figure imgaf001
The invention proposes to suck into the nozzle (30) a small amount of the liquid to be heated and thereby to form a condensate-vapor mixture in the nozzle (30). Alternatively or additionally, behind the nozzle (30) may be provided a flow divider which increases the flow velocity of the steam or vapor condensate mixture. In this way and / or by the formation of a vapor condensate mixture in the nozzle (30), the noise during the introduction of the vapor into the liquid to be heated as well as vibrations and vibrations are reduced without the supply of compressed air.
