Description

本発明は、給水を湿式部材に浸透させ、当該湿式部材の浸透水を空気との接触により気化させる気化式加湿部と、前記湿式部材のドレン水を加熱貯留部に導入し、当該加熱貯留部の貯留水を加熱により蒸発させる加熱式加湿部と、を備えた加湿装置に関する。   The present invention introduces a vaporization type humidification unit that permeates water into a wet member and vaporizes the permeated water of the wet member by contact with air, and introduces drain water of the wet member into the heat storage unit. It is related with the humidification apparatus provided with the heating-type humidification part which evaporates the stored water of this.

従来、空気を加湿する加湿装置として、省エネルギー性に優れているが加湿能力が低い気化式加湿部と、省エネルギー性に劣るが加湿能力が高い加熱式加湿部とを組合せたものが知られている(特許文献1を参照。)。即ち、このような加湿装置では、気化式加湿部による加湿を優先して行いながら、空気の温度が低い場合などのように気化式加湿部のみでは加湿能力が不足する場合にのみ加熱式加湿部による加湿を行うことで、省エネルギー性の向上と加湿能力の向上との両立が可能となる。
また、このように気化式加湿部と加熱式加湿部との両方を備えた加湿装置では、気化式加湿部の湿式部材から気化せずに排出されたドレン水は、加熱貯留部に導入されて加熱式加湿部による加湿用に利用される。
Conventionally, as a humidifying device for humidifying air, a combination of a vaporizing humidifier having excellent energy saving but low humidifying capacity and a heating humidifier having low humidifying ability but low energy saving is known. (See Patent Document 1). That is, in such a humidifying device, the heating humidifier is performed only when the vaporizing humidifier is insufficient and the humidifying capability is insufficient, such as when the temperature of the air is low, while giving priority to humidification by the vaporizing humidifier. By performing the humidification by, it is possible to achieve both energy saving and humidification capability.
Further, in the humidifying device having both the vaporizing humidifier and the heating humidifier, the drain water discharged without vaporizing from the wet member of the vaporizing humidifier is introduced into the heating reservoir. Used for humidification by the heating humidifier.

このような加湿装置に供給される給水には、一般的に、カルシウムやマグネシウムなどのスケール成分のように水が蒸発しても残留する蒸発残留物が含まれている。よって、気化式加湿部では、このような給水を湿式部材に浸透させてその一部を気化させるので、浸透部材から滴下するドレン水は、蒸発残留物が高濃度に濃縮(以下単に「濃縮」と呼ぶ場合がある。)されたものとなる。   The water supply supplied to such a humidifier generally includes evaporation residues that remain even when water evaporates, such as scale components such as calcium and magnesium. Therefore, in the vaporization type humidification unit, such a water supply is permeated into the wet member and a part thereof is vaporized, so that the drain water dripped from the permeation member has a high concentration of evaporation residue (hereinafter simply referred to as “concentration”). It may be called.)

そして、このように濃縮された気化式加湿部のドレン水を加熱貯留部に導入して加熱式加湿部の加湿用に利用する加湿装置では、一般的な加熱式加湿部のみを備えた加湿装置と比較して、加熱貯留部における蒸発残留物の析出が顕著となる。よって、加熱式加湿部では、当該析出した蒸発残留物による加熱式加湿部の能力低下や損傷等が問題となる。更に、このような蒸発残留物の析出は、気化式加湿部の湿式部材においても発生する場合があり、このことにより気化式加湿部の能力低下や損傷等も懸念される。   And in the humidification device which introduces the drain water of the vaporization type humidification part concentrated in this way into the heating storage part and uses it for humidification of the heating type humidification part, the humidification apparatus provided only with a general heating type humidification part Compared with, the precipitation of the evaporation residue in the heating storage part becomes remarkable. Therefore, in the heating humidifier, there is a problem such as a reduction in performance or damage of the heating humidifier due to the deposited evaporation residue. Further, such evaporation residue deposition may also occur in the wet member of the vaporizing humidifier, which may cause a decrease in performance or damage of the vaporizing humidifier.

この実情に鑑み、本発明の主たる課題は、気化式加湿部と加熱式加湿部とを備え、気化式加湿部のドレン水を加熱式加湿部の加湿用に利用する加湿装置において、給水に含まれる蒸発残留物の析出に伴う能力低下や損傷等を、簡単且つ合理的な構成により防止することができる技術を提供する点にある。   In view of this situation, the main problem of the present invention is that it includes a vaporizing humidifier and a heating humidifier, and is included in the water supply in a humidifier that uses drain water of the vaporizing humidifier to humidify the heated humidifier. Therefore, the present invention is to provide a technique capable of preventing a decrease in capacity, damage, and the like associated with precipitation of evaporation residue, with a simple and rational configuration.

本発明の第1特徴構成は、給水を湿式部材に浸透させ、当該湿式部材の浸透水を空気との接触により気化させる気化式加湿部と、
前記湿式部材のドレン水を加熱貯留部に導入し、当該加熱貯留部の貯留水を加熱により蒸発させる加熱式加湿部と、を備えた加湿装置であって、
前記加熱貯留部の貯留水を排水可能な排水部を備え、
所定の更新条件に基づいて、前記排水部により前記加熱貯留部の貯留水を排水して当該加熱貯留部の貯留水を更新する貯留水更新処理を実行する貯留水更新処理手段を備えた点にある。
A first characteristic configuration of the present invention is a vaporizing humidifying unit that permeates water into a wet member and vaporizes the permeated water of the wet member by contact with air;
A humidifying device comprising: a heating-type humidifying unit that introduces drain water of the wet member into a heating storage unit, and evaporates the stored water of the heating storage unit by heating;
A drainage part capable of draining the stored water of the heating storage part,
On the basis of a predetermined update condition, a storage water update processing unit is provided for performing a stored water update process for draining the stored water of the heating storage unit by the drainage unit and updating the stored water of the heating storage unit. is there.

本構成によれば、気化式加湿部で一部が気化することで濃縮されたドレン水を、加熱貯留部に導入して加熱式加湿部の加湿用に利用するにあたり、適宜所定の更新条件に基づいて貯留水更新処理を実行して当該加熱貯留部の貯留水を適宜排水するので、当該加熱貯留部の貯留水の濃縮程度を低く抑えることができる。従って、気化式加湿部のドレン水を利用する加熱式加湿部において、蒸発残留物の析出を抑制して、その析出による能力低下や損傷等を防止することができ、気化式加湿部と加熱式加湿部との二段階の加湿を、気化式加湿部のドレン水を加熱式加湿部の加湿用に利用して、効率的に実施することができる。   According to this configuration, when the drain water concentrated by partial vaporization in the vaporizing humidification unit is introduced into the heating storage unit and used for humidification of the heating humidification unit, the predetermined update condition is appropriately set. Based on this, the stored water update process is executed to appropriately drain the stored water in the heating storage section, so that the degree of concentration of the stored water in the heating storage section can be kept low. Therefore, in the heating humidification unit using the drain water of the vaporization type humidification unit, it is possible to suppress precipitation of evaporation residue and prevent deterioration in performance or damage due to the precipitation, and the vaporization type humidification unit and the heating type Two-stage humidification with the humidification unit can be efficiently performed by using the drain water of the vaporization type humidification unit for humidification of the heating type humidification unit.

本発明の第2特徴構成は、外部からの給水を前記湿式部材に散水する散水部を備えると共に、
前記加熱貯留部が、前記湿式部材のドレン水を受容して貯留するドレン水貯留槽で構成されている点にある。
The second characteristic configuration of the present invention includes a sprinkler for sprinkling water from the outside to the wet member,
The heating storage section is constituted by a drain water storage tank that receives and stores the drain water of the wet member.

本構成によれば、気化式加湿部の湿式部材には、濃縮されたドレン水を再度供給するのではなく、濃縮程度が低い外部からの給水を散水するので、当該湿式部材における蒸発残留物の析出を抑制することができる。一方、ドレン水貯留槽では、濃縮程度が比較的低い湿式部材のドレン水を受容して貯留することができるので、装置構成を簡略化しながら、例えば貯留水更新処理の実行頻度も比較的少なくした場合でも、貯留水の濃縮程度を低く抑えて、蒸発残留物の析出を適切に抑制することができる。   According to this configuration, since the concentrated drain water is not supplied again to the wet member of the vaporizing humidifier, water from the outside with a low degree of concentration is sprinkled. Precipitation can be suppressed. On the other hand, in the drain water storage tank, it is possible to receive and store the drain water of the wet member having a relatively low degree of concentration, so the frequency of the stored water renewal processing, for example, is relatively low while simplifying the device configuration. Even in this case, the concentration of the stored water can be kept low, and the evaporation residue can be appropriately suppressed.

本発明の第3特徴構成は、前記湿式部材への給水量を調整可能な給水量調整部を備え、
前記排水部が、前記加熱貯留部の所定水位を超える余剰水をオーバーフローさせて排水するオーバーフロー部であり、
前記貯留水更新処理手段が、前記貯留水更新処理において、前記給水量調整部により前記湿式部材への給水量を一時的に増加させて前記オーバーフロー部から余剰水をオーバーフローさせて排水することにより、前記加熱貯留部の貯留水を更新する点にある。
The third characteristic configuration of the present invention includes a water supply amount adjustment unit capable of adjusting a water supply amount to the wet member,
The drainage part is an overflow part that overflows and drains excess water exceeding a predetermined water level of the heating storage part,
The stored water update processing means, in the stored water update process, by temporarily increasing the amount of water supplied to the wet member by the water supply amount adjustment unit to overflow the excess water from the overflow part and drain it, It exists in the point which updates the stored water of the said heating storage part.

本構成によれば、貯留水更新処理において、給水量調整部により湿式部材への給水量を一時的に増加させることで、湿式部材のドレン水を増加させて、濃縮度合いが低い多くのドレン水を加熱貯留部に供給することができる。これにより、加熱貯留部では、濃縮度合いの高い既存の貯留水をオーバーフロー部により排水することができ、その結果、濃縮度合いの低いドレン水を新規に貯留する形態で、加熱貯留部の貯留水を更新することができる。   According to this configuration, in the stored water renewal process, the amount of water supplied to the wet member is temporarily increased by the water supply amount adjustment unit, thereby increasing the drain water of the wet member, and a large amount of drain water having a low degree of concentration. Can be supplied to the heat storage section. Thereby, in the heat storage part, the existing stored water with a high degree of concentration can be drained by the overflow part. As a result, the drain water with a low degree of concentration is newly stored, and the stored water in the heat storage part is stored. Can be updated.

本発明の第4特徴構成は、前記加熱貯留部に水位センサを備え、
前記貯留水更新処理の実行時以外の通常時において、前記水位センサの検出結果に基づいて前記給水量調整部を制御して、前記加熱貯留部の貯留水の水位を所定水位に維持する水位維持制御を実行する水位維持制御手段を備えた点にある。
4th characteristic structure of this invention is equipped with the water level sensor in the said heating storage part,
Water level maintenance that controls the water supply amount adjustment unit based on the detection result of the water level sensor to maintain the water level of the stored water in the heating storage unit at a predetermined water level at a normal time other than the execution time of the stored water update process It is in the point provided with the water level maintenance control means which performs control.

本構成によれば、加熱貯留部の貯留水の更新が必要でない通常時においては、水位維持制御を実行して、水位センサの検出結果に基づいて湿式部材への給水量を制御して、加熱貯留部の貯留水の水位を所定水位に維持することができる。このことにより、通常時において、加熱貯留部の貯留水の水位が安定することで、加熱式加湿部の加熱を適切に行いながら、加熱貯留部からの無用な排水を抑制して、消費水量を節約することができる。   According to this configuration, during normal times when it is not necessary to update the stored water in the heating storage unit, the water level maintenance control is executed, the amount of water supplied to the wet member is controlled based on the detection result of the water level sensor, and heating is performed. The level of the stored water in the storage unit can be maintained at a predetermined level. As a result, the water level of the stored water in the heating storage unit is stabilized at normal times, and while the heating humidification unit is appropriately heated, unnecessary drainage from the heating storage unit is suppressed, and the amount of water consumed is reduced. Can be saved.

本発明の第5特徴構成は、前記加熱貯留部の排水部からの排水を受容するドレンパンを備え、
空気の流れ方向に沿って前記湿式部材の上流側に配置され、当該空気の温調を行う空調用熱交換器を備えると共に、
前記ドレンパンが、前記加熱貯留部の排水部からの排水に加えて、前記空調用熱交換器のドレン水を受容するように配置されている点にある。
5th characteristic structure of this invention is equipped with the drain pan which receives the waste_water | drain from the drainage part of the said heating storage part,
An air conditioner heat exchanger that is disposed upstream of the wet member along the air flow direction and controls the temperature of the air,
The drain pan is arranged to receive the drain water of the heat exchanger for air conditioning in addition to the drainage from the drainage section of the heating storage section.

本構成によれば、加熱貯留部の排水部からの排水を受容するドレンパンを設けることで、当該排水を滞りなくスムーズに行うことができる。また、空気通路において空調用熱交換器の下流側に湿式部材を組み込むことで、温調された空気を気化式加湿部で加湿する場合には、このドレンパンを、加熱貯留部の排水用に加えて、空調用熱交換器のドレン水用に兼用することができる。   According to this structure, the drainage which receives the waste_water | drain from the waste_water | drain part of a heating storage part can be smoothly performed without a hindrance by providing the drain pan. In addition, when a temperature-controlled air is humidified by the vaporizing humidifier by incorporating a wet member downstream of the air conditioning heat exchanger in the air passage, this drain pan is added for drainage of the heating reservoir. Therefore, it can also be used for the drain water of the heat exchanger for air conditioning.

〔第1実施形態〕
本発明に係る加湿装置の第1実施形態について図1に基づいて説明する。
図1に示す加湿装置100は、例えば商業施設や家屋等において、屋外から屋内へ外気を取り込むダクトに接続する形態で設置されている。そして、屋外から取り込んだ外気が通風路1を通流し、通風路1を通過して加湿された空気が屋内に供給される。即ち、加湿装置100の通風路1には、通風路1を通流する空気を加湿する加湿部A,Bが配置されており、更に加湿装置100には、運転を制御する制御装置30や各種補機が設けられている。
[First Embodiment]
A first embodiment of a humidifier according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.
The humidifying device 100 shown in FIG. 1 is installed in a form that connects to a duct that takes in outside air from the outside to the inside, for example, in a commercial facility or a house. And the external air taken in from the outdoors flows through the ventilation path 1, and the air humidified through the ventilation path 1 is supplied indoors. That is, humidification sections A and B for humidifying the air flowing through the ventilation path 1 are arranged in the ventilation path 1 of the humidifying apparatus 100. Further, the humidifying apparatus 100 includes a control device 30 for controlling the operation and various types. Auxiliary equipment is provided.

加湿装置100は、省エネルギー性に優れているが加湿能力が低い気化式加湿部Aと、省エネルギー性に劣るが加湿能力が高い加熱式加湿部Bとを組み合わせて備えた所謂ハイブリッド式の加湿装置として構成されている。
以下、これら気化式加湿部A及び加熱式加湿部Bの詳細構成について、順に説明を加える。
The humidifier 100 is a so-called hybrid humidifier having a combination of a vaporizing humidifier A that is excellent in energy saving but low in humidifying capacity and a heating humidifier B that is inferior in energy saving but has high humidifying ability. It is configured.
Hereinafter, the detailed configurations of the vaporizing humidifier A and the heating humidifier B will be described in order.

気化式加湿部Aは、水道水等が外部から給水SWとして供給され、その外部からの給水SWを湿式部材6に浸透させ、当該湿式部材6の浸透水PWを空気との接触により気化させることで、通風路1を通流する空気を加湿する加湿部として構成されている。
湿式部材6は、水浸透性と通気性とを有する部材からなり、通風路1の流路断面を覆う姿勢で配置されている。よって、この湿式部材6において、給水SWが浸透すると共に、通風路1を通流する比較的低湿な空気が通過することで、湿式部材6の浸透水PWの気化が促進され、通過する空気が加湿されることになる。
The vaporizing humidifier A is supplied with tap water or the like as a feed water SW from the outside, permeates the feed water SW from the outside into the wet member 6, and vaporizes the permeate water PW of the wet member 6 by contact with air. And it is comprised as a humidification part which humidifies the air which flows through the ventilation path 1. FIG.
The wet member 6 is made of a member having water permeability and air permeability, and is disposed in a posture that covers the flow path cross section of the ventilation path 1. Therefore, in this wet member 6, the supply water SW penetrates and the relatively low-humidity air flowing through the ventilation path 1 passes, whereby the vaporization of the permeated water PW of the wet member 6 is promoted, and the passing air is It will be humidified.

気化式加湿部Aには、給水SWを湿式部材6に散水する散水部4が設けられている。この散水部4は、湿式部材6の上方において水平方向に沿って配置された管材からなり、内部に供給された給水SWを下方部に分散配置された穿設穴(図示省略)から下方の湿式部材6の上端部に散水することができる。また、給水SWの流れ方向における散水部4の上流側には、湿式部材6への給水量を調整可能な給水量調整弁3(給水量調整部の一例)が設けられている。   The vaporizing humidifier A is provided with a sprinkler 4 that sprinkles the water supply SW onto the wet member 6. The sprinkling part 4 is made of a pipe material arranged along the horizontal direction above the wet member 6, and is wet below the perforated holes (not shown) in which the water supply SW supplied to the inside is dispersedly arranged in the lower part. Water can be sprayed on the upper end of the member 6. In addition, a water supply amount adjustment valve 3 (an example of a water supply amount adjustment unit) that can adjust the water supply amount to the wet member 6 is provided on the upstream side of the water sprinkling unit 4 in the flow direction of the water supply SW.

このように気化式加湿部Aの湿式部材6に給水SWを散水すると、当該給水SWは湿式部材6に浸透する。このように湿式部材6に浸透した浸透水PWは、同湿式部材6を通過する比較的低湿の空気と接触することで一部が気化する。その気化した水分が空気に混合されることで、通風路1を通流する空気が加湿されることになる。   Thus, when the water supply SW is sprinkled on the wet member 6 of the vaporizing humidifier A, the water supply SW penetrates into the wet member 6. A part of the permeated water PW that has permeated the wet member 6 in this way is vaporized by contacting with the relatively low-humidity air that passes through the wet member 6. The vaporized water is mixed with air, so that the air flowing through the ventilation path 1 is humidified.

また、湿式部材6において気化せずに落下した浸透水PWは、ドレン水DWとして湿式部材6の下端部から滴下し、その下方に配置されたドレン水貯留槽8に受容されて、当該ドレン水貯留槽8の貯留水RWとして貯留される。   Further, the permeated water PW that has fallen without being vaporized in the wet member 6 is dripped from the lower end of the wet member 6 as drain water DW, and is received by the drain water storage tank 8 disposed below the drain water DW. It is stored as the stored water RW of the storage tank 8.

加熱式加湿部Bは、湿式部材6のドレン水DWを加熱貯留部8aに導入し、当該加熱貯留部8aの貯留水RWを加熱により蒸発させる加湿部として構成されている。
尚、加熱貯留部8aは、湿式部材6のドレン水DWを受容して貯留するドレン水貯留槽8の一部として構成されている。具体的に、ドレン水貯留槽8は、通風路1の空気の流れ方向における上流側の部位で湿式部材6のドレン水DWを受容し、その受容したドレン水DWを貯留水RWとして、同空気の流れ方向における下流側の部位である加熱貯留部8aに導入する。
The heating-type humidification unit B is configured as a humidification unit that introduces the drain water DW of the wet member 6 into the heating storage unit 8a and evaporates the stored water RW of the heating storage unit 8a by heating.
In addition, the heating storage part 8a is comprised as a part of drain water storage tank 8 which receives the drain water DW of the wet member 6, and stores it. Specifically, the drain water storage tank 8 receives the drain water DW of the wet member 6 at a portion upstream in the air flow direction of the ventilation path 1 and uses the received drain water DW as the stored water RW. It introduces into the heating storage part 8a which is a downstream part in the flow direction.

ドレン水貯留槽8の加熱貯留部8aには、当該加熱貯留部8aの貯留水RWを加熱可能な電気ヒータ9が配置されており、電気ヒータ9は、ヒータ電源10からの給電を切替えることで、作動及び停止が切替えられる。また、加熱貯留部8aにおける電気ヒータ9の設置箇所の上方には、通風路1における湿式部材6の下流側に開口する水蒸気供給口8bが形成されている。
そして、加熱式加湿部Bの電気ヒータ9を作動させると、加熱貯留部8aの貯留水RWが加熱されて沸騰し、水蒸気Sが発生する。その水蒸気Sが水蒸気供給口8bを介して通風路1に導入されることで、通風路1を通流する空気を加湿することができる。
An electric heater 9 capable of heating the stored water RW of the heating storage section 8a is disposed in the heating storage section 8a of the drain water storage tank 8, and the electric heater 9 is configured to switch power supply from the heater power source 10. The operation and the stop are switched. In addition, a steam supply port 8 b that opens to the downstream side of the wet member 6 in the ventilation path 1 is formed above the installation location of the electric heater 9 in the heating storage portion 8 a.
And if the electric heater 9 of the heating-type humidification part B is operated, the stored water RW of the heating storage part 8a will be heated and boiled, and the water vapor | steam S will generate | occur | produce. The water vapor S is introduced into the ventilation path 1 through the water vapor supply port 8b, whereby the air flowing through the ventilation path 1 can be humidified.

更に、ドレン水貯留槽8の加熱貯留部8a側には、当該加熱貯留部8aの貯留水RWを排水可能な排水部として、当該加熱貯留部8aの所定水位を超える余剰水をオーバーフローさせて排水するオーバーフロー部12が設けられている。即ち、ドレン水貯留槽8の貯留水RWは、湿式部材6からドレン水DWを受容することで増加する一方で、加熱貯留部8aで蒸発して水蒸気Sとなることで減少する。よって、前者のドレン水DWの受容量が、後者の水蒸気Sの発生量よりも多い場合には、ドレン水貯留槽8の貯留水の水位が上昇し、その水位が所定水位を超えると、その超えた分に相当する余剰水がオーバーフロー部12から排出されることになる。   Further, on the heat storage section 8a side of the drain water storage tank 8, as a drainage section capable of draining the stored water RW of the heating storage section 8a, excess water exceeding the predetermined water level of the heating storage section 8a is overflowed and drained. An overflow portion 12 is provided. That is, the stored water RW in the drain water storage tank 8 increases by receiving the drain water DW from the wet member 6, while decreasing by evaporating into the water vapor S in the heating storage unit 8 a. Therefore, when the amount of the drain water DW received is larger than the amount of the generated water vapor S, the water level of the drain water storage tank 8 rises, and when the water level exceeds a predetermined water level, Excess water corresponding to the excess amount is discharged from the overflow part 12.

オーバーフロー部12の下方には、当該オーバーフロー部12からの排水を受容するドレンパン14が設けられている。即ち、オーバーフロー部12から排出された余剰水は、その下方に配置されたドレンパン14に受容された上で、外部に排水される。
また、ドレン水貯留槽8には、貯留水RWの導電率を計測する導電率センサ19や、水位を計測する水位センサ20が設けられている。
A drain pan 14 that receives drainage from the overflow portion 12 is provided below the overflow portion 12. That is, the excess water discharged from the overflow portion 12 is received by the drain pan 14 disposed below the drain water and then drained to the outside.
Further, the drain water storage tank 8 is provided with a conductivity sensor 19 for measuring the conductivity of the stored water RW and a water level sensor 20 for measuring the water level.

通風路1において、気化式加湿部Aの湿式部材6は、加熱式加湿部Bの水蒸気供給口8bの上流側に配置されている。このことで、湿式部材6には、加熱式加湿部Bの運転に拘らず比較的低湿の空気が通過することになって、気化式加湿部Aによる加湿能力ができるだけ高いものに維持されることになる。   In the ventilation path 1, the wet member 6 of the vaporizing humidifier A is disposed on the upstream side of the water vapor supply port 8 b of the heating humidifier B. Thus, relatively low-humidity air passes through the wet-type member 6 regardless of the operation of the heating-type humidification unit B, and the humidification ability of the vaporization-type humidification unit A is maintained as high as possible. become.

通風路1における湿式部材6の上流側には、当該通風路1に導入された外気OAの温度を計測する温度センサ16や、同外気OAの湿度を計測する湿度センサ17が設けられている。制御装置30は、通風路1を通流する空気の加湿を行うにあたり、これら温度センサ16や湿度センサ17の計測結果に基づいて、通風路1を通過して屋内に供給される空気の湿度を目標湿度とするために必要な必要加湿量を算出し、給水量調整弁3の開度を調整して給水SWの量を必要加湿量に設定する。すると、その給水SWは、先ずは気化式加湿部Aの湿式部材6に供給されて気化するが、例えば外気OAが低温状態又は低湿状態で気化式加湿部Aのみでは加湿能力が不足する場合には、気化しきれなかった水がドレン水DWとして湿式部材6から滴下してドレン水貯留槽8に受容され、貯留水RWとして貯留される。そして、制御装置30は、電気ヒータ9を作動させて、気化式加湿部Aでは気化しきれずにドレン水貯留槽8に滴下した貯留水RWを加熱して、加熱式加湿部Bによる加湿を実行する。
このことで、加熱式加湿部Bでは、気化式加湿部Aの加湿能力の不足分を補充する分の加湿能力を発揮する程度に運転が制限されることになり、加熱式加湿部Bの運転に必要なエネルギーの節約を図ると共に、給水量を必要加湿量に制限して消費水量の節約を行うことができる。
A temperature sensor 16 for measuring the temperature of the outside air OA introduced into the ventilation path 1 and a humidity sensor 17 for measuring the humidity of the outside air OA are provided on the upstream side of the wet member 6 in the ventilation path 1. When humidifying the air flowing through the ventilation path 1, the control device 30 determines the humidity of the air supplied indoors through the ventilation path 1 based on the measurement results of the temperature sensor 16 and the humidity sensor 17. The required humidification amount required to obtain the target humidity is calculated, the opening degree of the water supply amount adjustment valve 3 is adjusted, and the amount of the water supply SW is set to the necessary humidification amount. Then, the water supply SW is first supplied to the wet member 6 of the vaporizing humidifier A to be vaporized. For example, when the outside air OA is in a low temperature state or a low humidity state, the vaporizing humidifier A alone has insufficient humidifying capacity. The water that could not be vaporized is dripped from the wet member 6 as the drain water DW, received in the drain water storage tank 8, and stored as the stored water RW. Then, the control device 30 operates the electric heater 9 to heat the stored water RW dropped in the drain water storage tank 8 without being completely vaporized in the vaporizing humidifier A, and humidifying the heated humidifier B. Run.
As a result, in the heating humidifier B, the operation is limited to the extent that the humidifying capacity of the vaporizing humidifier A is replenished, and the heating humidifier B is operated. It is possible to save the energy required to reduce the amount of water consumed by limiting the amount of water supplied to the required amount of humidification.

制御装置30は、ドレン水貯留槽8の貯留水RWを適切な状態に維持するために、水位維持制御手段31及び貯留水更新処理手段32として機能するように構成されている。そして、詳細については後述するが、貯留水更新処理の実行時以外の通常時には、水位維持制御手段31による水位維持制御が実行され、所定の更新条件に基づいて、貯留水更新処理手段32による貯留水更新処理が適宜実行される。
以下に、水位維持制御手段31による水位維持制御、及び、貯留水更新処理手段32による貯留水更新処理の詳細について、順に説明を加える。
The control device 30 is configured to function as a water level maintenance control unit 31 and a stored water update processing unit 32 in order to maintain the stored water RW in the drain water storage tank 8 in an appropriate state. Although details will be described later, during normal times other than when the stored water update process is executed, water level maintenance control by the water level maintenance control means 31 is executed, and based on a predetermined update condition, storage by the stored water update processing means 32 is performed. Water renewal processing is executed as appropriate.
Below, the water level maintenance control by the water level maintenance control means 31 and the details of the stored water update processing by the stored water update processing means 32 will be described in order.

(水位維持制御)
制御装置30が機能する水位維持制御手段31は、後述する貯留水更新処理の実行時以外の通常時において、水位センサ20の検出結果に基づいて給水量調整弁3を制御して、加熱貯留部8aの貯留水RWの水位を所定水位に維持する水位維持制御を実行するように構成されている。
(Water level maintenance control)
The water level maintenance control means 31 in which the control device 30 functions controls the water supply amount adjustment valve 3 based on the detection result of the water level sensor 20 at a normal time other than the execution time of the stored water update process to be described later, and the heating storage unit It is comprised so that the water level maintenance control which maintains the water level of the stored water RW of 8a at a predetermined water level may be performed.

この水位制御維持制御では、水位センサ20で検出される加熱貯留部8a(ドレン水貯留槽8)の貯留水RWの水位が、オーバーフロー部12から排水される余剰水が0若しくは少量となる所定水位に維持されるように、給水量調整弁3の開度が調整されて湿式部材6への給水量が調整される。具体的に、湿式部材6への給水量は、原則的には空気の湿度を目標湿度とするための必要加湿量に設定されるが、水位センサ20で検出される水位が所定水位を超えると判断した場合には、当該給水量を減少させて、余剰水のオーバーフロー排水を抑制する。
そして、このような水位維持制御が実行されることで、通常時においては、加熱貯留部8aからの無用な排水が抑制されて、消費水量が節約されることになる。
In this water level control maintenance control, the water level of the stored water RW in the heated storage unit 8a (drain water storage tank 8) detected by the water level sensor 20 is a predetermined water level where the excess water drained from the overflow unit 12 is 0 or a small amount. Thus, the opening of the water supply amount adjusting valve 3 is adjusted so that the water supply amount to the wet member 6 is adjusted. Specifically, the water supply amount to the wet member 6 is basically set to a required humidification amount for setting the air humidity to the target humidity, but when the water level detected by the water level sensor 20 exceeds a predetermined water level. When it judges, the said water supply amount is decreased and the overflow drainage of excess water is suppressed.
And by performing such water level maintenance control, in the normal time, useless drainage from the heating storage part 8a is suppressed, and the amount of water consumption is saved.

以上のような加湿装置100では、加熱貯留部8aにおいて、気化式加湿部Aにおいてスケール成分などの蒸発残留物が濃縮されたドレン水DWが供給され、そのドレン水が加熱式加湿部Bにおいて加熱されて蒸発するので、蒸発残留物が析出し易い状態となる。そこで、この加湿装置100は、以下に説明する貯留水更新処理を実行することで、このような問題を回避するように構成されている。   In the humidifying device 100 as described above, in the heating storage unit 8a, drain water DW in which evaporation residue such as a scale component is concentrated in the vaporization humidification unit A is supplied, and the drain water is heated in the heating humidification unit B. Since it evaporates, the evaporation residue is likely to precipitate. Therefore, the humidifier 100 is configured to avoid such a problem by executing a stored water update process described below.

(貯留水更新処理)
制御装置30が機能する貯留水更新処理手段32は、所定の更新条件に基づいて、オーバーフロー部12である排水部により加熱貯留部8aの貯留水RWを排水して当該加熱貯留部8aの貯留水を更新する貯留水更新処理を実行するように構成されている。
具体的に、貯留水更新処理手段32は、貯留水更新処理において、給水量調整弁3により湿式部材6への給水量を一時的に増加させてオーバーフロー部12から余剰水をオーバーフローさせて排水することにより、加熱貯留部8aの貯留水を更新する。
(Reserved water update process)
Based on a predetermined update condition, the stored water update processing means 32 in which the control device 30 functions drains the stored water RW of the heating storage unit 8a by the drainage unit that is the overflow unit 12, and the stored water of the heating storage unit 8a. It is comprised so that the stored water update process which updates may be performed.
Specifically, in the stored water update process 32, the stored water update processing means 32 temporarily increases the amount of water supplied to the wet member 6 by the water supply amount adjustment valve 3 to overflow the excess water from the overflow portion 12 and drain it. Thereby, the stored water of the heating storage part 8a is updated.

即ち、貯留水更新処理では、加熱貯留部8aを含むドレン水貯留槽8の貯留水RWにおける蒸発残留物の濃縮程度が過剰に上昇したと考えられるタイミングにおいて、一時的に、給水量調整弁3の開度を通常時よりも増加させて、湿式部材6への給水量を通常時よりも増加させる。すると、湿式部材6を通過する浸透水PWの量が増加すると共に、その湿式部材6で気化する水分量は略変化しないことから、湿式部材6からドレン水貯留槽8へは、通常時よりも濃縮程度が比較的低いドレン水DWが、通常時よりも多量に供給されることになる。   That is, in the stored water renewal process, at the timing when the degree of concentration of the evaporation residue in the stored water RW of the drain water storage tank 8 including the heating storage unit 8a is considered to have increased excessively, temporarily, the water supply amount adjustment valve 3 The amount of water supplied to the wet member 6 is increased more than usual. Then, the amount of the permeated water PW passing through the wet member 6 is increased, and the amount of water vaporized by the wet member 6 is not substantially changed. Therefore, the wet member 6 to the drain water storage tank 8 is more than normal. Drain water DW having a relatively low degree of concentration is supplied in a larger amount than usual.

このように通常時よりも濃縮程度が低く多量のドレン水DWがドレン水貯留槽8に新たに供給されると、それまでドレン水貯留槽8に貯留されていた濃縮程度が高い貯留水RWがオーバーフロー部12から押し出されて排出される。このことで、ドレン水貯留槽8の貯留水RWは、濃縮程度が低いものに更新されることになる。その結果、気化式加湿部Aのドレン水DWを利用する加熱式加湿部Bにおいて、蒸発残留物の析出を抑制することができ、その析出による能力低下や損傷等を防止することができる。   In this way, when a large amount of drain water DW is newly supplied to the drain water storage tank 8 with a lower concentration level than normal, the stored water RW having a high concentration level that has been stored in the drain water storage tank 8 until then is obtained. It is pushed out from the overflow part 12 and discharged. Thus, the stored water RW in the drain water storage tank 8 is renewed to a low concentration level. As a result, in the heating humidifier B that uses the drain water DW of the vaporizing humidifier A, it is possible to suppress the evaporation residue from being deposited, and it is possible to prevent deterioration in performance and damage due to the precipitation.

尚、貯留水更新処理の実行タイミングを決定するための上記更新条件としては、ドレン水貯留槽8における貯留水RWの濃縮程度の過剰上昇を直接的又は間接的に認識可能な指標に基づいて設定することができる。本実施形態では、ドレン水貯留槽8に設けた導電率センサ19の計測結果やタイマー(図示省略)による時間計測結果などを用いて、貯留水更新処理の実行タイミングを決定する。   In addition, as said update conditions for determining the execution timing of the stored water update process, it sets based on the parameter | index which can recognize the excessive increase of the concentration degree of the stored water RW in the drain water storage tank 8 directly or indirectly. can do. In this embodiment, the execution timing of the stored water update process is determined using the measurement result of the conductivity sensor 19 provided in the drain water storage tank 8 or the time measurement result by a timer (not shown).

具体的に、導電率センサ19の計測結果を用いる場合には、貯留水更新処理手段32は、導電率センサ19で計測されたドレン水貯留槽8における貯留水RWの導電率が、当該貯留水RWの濃縮程度が蒸発残留物の析出が懸念される程度の所定の閾値に到達したタイミングで、上記貯留水更新処理を実行して当該貯留水RWを更新する。   Specifically, when the measurement result of the conductivity sensor 19 is used, the stored water update processing unit 32 indicates that the conductivity of the stored water RW in the drain water storage tank 8 measured by the conductivity sensor 19 is equal to the stored water. The stored water update process is executed to update the stored water RW at a timing at which the degree of RW concentration reaches a predetermined threshold at which the evaporation residue may be precipitated.

また、タイマーの計測結果を用いる場合には、貯留水更新処理手段32は、前回の貯留水更新処理の実行時からの経過時間やその経過時間中での加熱式加湿部Bの運転時間を計測し、その計測時間が、貯留水RWの濃縮程度が蒸発残留物の析出が懸念される程度に上昇したと予測される設定時間に到達したタイミングで、上記貯留水更新処理を実行して当該貯留水RWを更新する。
そして、このような更新条件に基づいて貯留水更新処理を実行することで、ドレン水貯留槽8の貯留水RWの濃縮程度を常に低く抑えて、蒸発残留物の析出を確実に抑制することができる。
Moreover, when using the measurement result of a timer, the stored water update process means 32 measures the operation time of the heating humidification part B in the elapsed time from the execution time of the last stored water update process, and the elapsed time. Then, at the timing when the concentration time of the stored water RW reaches a set time that is predicted to have increased to such a degree that the evaporation residue may be deposited, the stored water renewal process is executed to perform the storage. Update water RW.
Then, by executing the stored water update process based on such update conditions, the degree of concentration of the stored water RW in the drain water storage tank 8 can be always kept low, and precipitation of evaporation residue can be reliably suppressed. it can.

本発明に係る加湿装置の第2実施形態について図2に基づいて説明する。
尚、この第2実施形態の加湿装置200は、空気の加湿に加えて、同空気の温調を行うことができるエアハンドリングユニットなどの空調ユニット50として構成されている点で上記第1実施形態とは異なるが、他の点では主に上記第1実施形態と同様の構成を採用している。よって、以下では、その相違する構成の詳細について説明を加えるものとし、上記第1実施形態と同様の構成については説明を省略する。
[Second Embodiment]
2nd Embodiment of the humidification apparatus which concerns on this invention is described based on FIG.
The humidifier 200 according to the second embodiment is configured as the air conditioning unit 50 such as an air handling unit capable of controlling the temperature of the air in addition to the humidification of the air. In other respects, the same configuration as that of the first embodiment is mainly employed. Therefore, in the following, the details of the different configuration will be added, and description of the same configuration as in the first embodiment will be omitted.

即ち、空調ユニット50の通風路1には、通風路1の通風動力を発生するファン2が設けられている。そして、このファン2を作動させることで、取込口1aから取り込んだ空気が通風路1を通流し、通風路1を通過して温調及び加湿された空気が給気口1bから屋内に供給される。即ち、この通風路1には、空気の流れ方向に沿って湿式部材6の上流側に配置され、当該空気の温調を行う空調用熱交換器25が設けられている。この空調用熱交換器25としては、公知のエアハンドリングユニットや外調機等の空調ユニットで利用されるものと同様のものが利用されており、内部を通流する温水又は冷水との熱交換により、通風路1を通流する空気を加熱又は冷却するものとして構成されている。即ち、この空調ユニット50は、空気の加湿に加えて、同空気の温調を行うことができる。   That is, the fan 2 which generates the ventilation power of the ventilation path 1 is provided in the ventilation path 1 of the air conditioning unit 50. And by operating this fan 2, the air taken in from the intake port 1a flows through the ventilation path 1, and the temperature-controlled and humidified air passes through the ventilation path 1 and is supplied indoors from the air supply port 1b.

That is, the ventilation path 1 is provided with an air conditioning heat exchanger 25 that is arranged upstream of the wet member 6 along the air flow direction and controls the temperature of the air. The air-conditioning heat exchanger 25 is the same as that used in known air-handling units, air-conditioning units such as external air conditioners, etc., and exchanges heat with hot or cold water flowing inside. Thus, the air flowing through the ventilation path 1 is heated or cooled. That is, the air conditioning unit 50 can adjust the temperature of the air in addition to the humidification of the air.

このような空調用熱交換器25では、空気の冷却時(即ち冷房時)において、空気中の水分が凝縮してドレン水が排出される。そこで、ドレンパン14を、加熱貯留部8aの排水用に加えて、空調用熱交換器25のドレン水用に兼用するべく、加熱貯留部8aのオーバーフロー部12からの排水に加えて、空調用熱交換器25の空気冷却時に排出されるドレン水を受容するように配置されている。   In such a heat exchanger 25 for air conditioning, when air is cooled (that is, during cooling), moisture in the air is condensed and drain water is discharged. Therefore, in addition to drainage from the overflow part 12 of the heat storage part 8a, in addition to drainage of the heat storage part 8a, the drain pan 14 is also used for drainage of the heat storage part 8a, and heat for air conditioning. It arrange | positions so that the drain water discharged | emitted at the time of air cooling of the exchanger 25 may be received.
