In this way, a good thermal contact with the process air is made possible by a heat radiation of the process air duct.
- the drive medium usually has the property that its volume changes as a function of the temperature, wherein preferably the volume of the drive medium increases with increasing temperature. In this case, it is again preferred that the volume of the drive medium increases exponentially with increasing temperature. As a result, the volume of the drive medium initially only increases slightly as the drive medium warms up. In this way, the throttle valve generally stays closed longer. As a rule, it is only opened due to the reciprocating piston driven by the increase in volume of the drive medium when a higher temperature is achieved compared to a linear increase in volume of the drive medium.

- step (B) heating the drive medium by heat exchange with the process air heated in step (a) to actuate the actuator system by changing the temperature-dependent volume of the drive medium;
- the drive motor simultaneously drives the process air blower and the cooling air blower and the throttle valve is at least partially opened during steps (a) to (c).
- the drive medium in the actuator system is heated by the thermal contact of the actuator system with the process air and increases its volume.
- the volume Increasing the drive medium drives the reciprocating piston in the hydraulic cylinder, whereby the throttle flap in the cooling air duct is opened and the cooling air volume flow increases.
- T set Upon reaching a predetermined process air temperature T set , the cooling air volume flow in the cooling air duct is then generally at a maximum.
- the drive medium cools down in the actuator system and reduces its volume.
- the drive of the reciprocating piston decreases and the throttle valve is closed, wherein the cooling air volume flow decreases in the cooling air passage.
- the increase in volume of the drive medium is exponential.
- the throttle valve initially remains longer in a small opening angle of preferably 30 ° to 60 °, since a warming initially only a small effect on the volume of the drive medium.
- the cooling air volume flow initially also remains low due to the small opening of the throttle flap.
- the process air is cooled less during the heating phase and heats up faster. Energy losses due to excessive cooling can thus be avoided and the drying process can be carried out faster and more energy-efficiently.
- the throttle valve additionally has a return mechanism, in particular a return spring.
- the volume of the drive medium in the actuator system decreases and the piston in the hydraulic cylinder loses power.
- the return mechanism generally counteracts the drive direction of the piston and closes the throttle valve when the drive is released. At the same time, it also returns the reciprocating piston in the hydraulic cylinder via the connection between throttle valve and piston.
- the current actual temperature T ist of a process air is measured via a temperature sensor.
- a temperature sensor arranged in the process air duct measures the temperature of the process air, for example during a drying process.
- a relationship between at least one predetermined desired temperature of the process air T so n and the actual temperature measured by the temperature sensor can advantageously be stored. If the target temperature is exceeded in this particular embodiment by the actual temperature, the control device opens a control valve in a line which connects the actuator system with the condensate tank. In addition, the condensate pump is switched on by the control device for an operating time At A ktuator.
- the operating time At A ktuator the condensate pump is associated with a condensate volume V A ktuator, which is pumped in this time interval of the condensate pump in the actuator system.
- the control unit closes the control valve again. Due to the additional volume in the actuator system, the reciprocating piston is moved to a position in which the throttle flap is more open in the cooling air duct. It flows a larger cooling air volume flow and the process air is more strongly cooled at the condenser of the air-air heat exchanger, wherein the exceeding of the target temperature is counteracted.
- the control device throttles and / or stops an existing second drive motor for the cooling air blower, which drives the cooling air blower in the cooling air duct when the setpoint temperature is undershot by an actual temperature of the process air.
- the throttling and / or the stopping of the drive motor reduces or interrupts the cooling air volume flow in the cooling air duct in this embodiment.
- the process air is cooled less strongly at the air-air heat exchanger, whereby the falling below the target temperature is counteracted.
- a differential value between the setpoint and actual temperature ATdiff is advantageously stored in each case for the drive motor throttling and the stopping of the second drive motor, wherein AT diff throttle ⁇ AT dif f stop applies.
- the invention has numerous advantages. On the one hand, a faster heating of the process air by a reduction of the cooling air volume flow is possible, because overall less heating power must be provided to heat the process air, for example, in a heating phase to the desired process temperature. In this way, a drying process can be performed faster and more energy efficient.

- the drive motor 29 simultaneously operates the process air blower 6 and the cooling air blower 16.
- the cooling air blower 16 arranged in the cooling air duct 15 conveys cooling air, as a rule air from an installation space of the condensation dryer, from the cooling air inlet 14 to the cooling air outlet 26.
- a water supply 27 is connected via a connection 24 to the condensate container 23, so that sufficient aqueous liquid can be provided for the purification of heat exchanger 5 via the line 20.
- Wäschemit Meeting 25 are also available. 22 means a door of the condensation dryer for the introduction of laundry items not shown here in the drying chamber 3.
- the used as a drying chamber drum 3 is mounted in the embodiment shown in Fig. 1 at the rear bottom by means of a pivot bearing and front by means of a bearing plate 7, wherein the Drum 3 rests with a brim on a sliding strip 8 on the bearing plate 7 and is held at the front end.
- 9 indicates an (optical) display device for displaying process parameters.
- FIG. 2 shows a schematic representation of the actuator system 12 used in the condensation dryer of FIG. 1.
- a reservoir 12d is connected to the bottom of the hydraulic cylinder 12a.
- the reservoir 12d is designed as a hose nozzle.
- the reservoir 12d is filled with a drive medium 12c (hatched lines) which is in contact with the bottom of the reciprocating piston 12b.
- a part of the reservoir 12d is arranged in the process air duct 2, where it can be flowed around by process air.
- the remaining part of the reservoir 12d is located in this arrangement in the vicinity of the process air channel 2 and is also heated by its heat radiation.
- the reciprocating piston 12b is connected to the adjusting mechanism of the throttle valve 13.
- the connection is a rod connection with linear power transmission.
- FIG. 3 a) -c) shows a schematic representation of an inserted circular throttle valve 13, and two opening angle of the throttle valve 13 in the cooling air passage 15.
- This opening angle can be predetermined, for example, by a mechanical element, for example a set screw 32 (not shown) in the cooling air channel 15. Otherwise, the throttle valve 13, the cooling air passage 15 completely close.
