[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art For example, as shown in FIG. 5, for cooling a room and / or a refrigerator of a vehicle powered by an internal combustion engine such as an automobile, a construction machine, a marine boat, etc., as shown in FIG. BACKGROUND ART A vapor compression type cooling device has been conventionally known. This kind of vapor compression type cooling device uses a part of the output of the engine for running or working for cooling, so that not only the load on the engine increases but also the fuel consumption rate decreases. There are problems, and recently, since freon is exclusively used as a refrigerant, regulations such as total amount control and production reduction have been taken due to the problem of ozone layer destruction.

To cope with this, an automobile cooler that uses an adsorption type refrigerator using exhaust heat of an engine as a heat source of a heating unit and does not use Freon gas has been proposed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 01-12 / 1999.
6811. In this proposal, as shown in FIG. 6, an evaporating unit 2, an adsorbing unit 3 for adsorbing refrigerant vapor generated from the evaporating unit 2, and evaporating the adsorbed refrigerant vapor by heating (understood meaning of desorption). An adsorption refrigerator 1 having a heating unit 4 and a condensing unit 5 for condensing vapor from the heating unit is provided, and a heat exchanger 6 of the evaporating unit 2 is connected to a cooling circuit 7 for cooling the interior of the vehicle, thereby adsorbing the adsorbent. The heat exchangers 8 and 9 of the condensing section 5 and the condensing section 5 are connected to a closed air cooling circuit 10, and the heat exchanger 11 of the heating section 4 is connected to an engine heat supply circuit 12.
To use a part of the cooling exhaust heat of the car engine as a heat source.

[0004] The structure of the adsorbent refrigerating machine 1 is described below in detail. As shown in Fig. 7, the adsorbent tank 14 and the steam tank 15 connected to each other by the steam flow path 13 are kept sealed in a vacuum state. The two tanks 14 and 15 are provided with two adsorption / desorption units A and B respectively provided with heat exchangers, and the adsorbent tank 14 contains a silica-based solid adsorbent S in which a certain amount of a refrigerant, such as water, is adsorbed. Fill. And the adsorbent tank 14 of the absorption / desorption unit A
Is connected to the engine heat supply circuit 12 as the heat exchanger 11 of the heating unit 4, and the heat exchangers in the steam tank 15 of the absorption / desorption unit A and the adsorbent tank 14 of the absorption / desorption unit B are respectively exchanged. The cooling water is supplied by connecting to the air cooling circuit 10 as devices 9 and 8. Further, the heat exchanger of the steam tank 15 of the absorption / desorption unit B is connected to the cooling circuit 7 as the heat exchanger 6 of the evaporator 2.

As described above, first, the solid adsorbent S in the adsorbent tank 14 of the adsorption / desorption unit A is heated by the supply of engine heat, and the adsorbed refrigerant moisture is evaporated through the vapor passage 13 while being evaporated. Condensed in the exchanger 9 (this is referred to as desorption by the present applicant), and in the adsorption / desorption unit B, when the desorption of the adsorption / desorption unit A is completed, the heat exchanger 8 of the adsorbent tank 14 is heated to about 30 ° C. Cold water is supplied, and the cold water of the cooling circuit 7 is passed through the heat exchanger 6 of the steam tank 15 so as to exert an effect of adsorbing the refrigerant vapor, thereby condensing the refrigerant water condensed in the heat exchanger 6 of the steam tank 15. Is evaporated, and the cooling circuit 7 is heated by the latent heat at that time.
Is cooled to about 8 ° C. Here, the heat exchanger 11
, 8, 9 and 6 are exchanged and operated, and the heat exchanger is connected to both tanks 14 and 15 while keeping the adsorbent tank 14 and the steam tank 15 connected by the steam flow path 13 sealed under vacuum. Are separately provided, and the adsorbent tank 14 is filled with a silica-based solid adsorbent S in which a certain amount of a refrigerant, for example, water, is adsorbed.
The adsorbent tank 14 of B is alternately heated and cooled, and the corresponding steam tanks 15 are respectively provided with the condenser 5 (condenser) and the evaporator 2.
The cooling circuit operates alternately as an evaporator, and the cooling circuit is always switched to the evaporator to perform an effective cooling operation by the latent heat associated with the evaporation of the refrigerant in the evaporator.

[0006]

However, such an adsorption refrigerator 1 has an adsorbent tank 14 and a steam tank 1 respectively.
5 requires two absorption / desorption units A and B integrally connected by a steam passage 13, so that the adsorbent tank 14 requires a considerably large volume in terms of the amount of solid adsorbent S currently available. Thus, the area required for the heat exchanger for extracting the latent heat of evaporation becomes considerably large. For applications such as automobiles, which have small, lightweight, low fuel consumption (high performance), and no pollution as criteria for evaluating commercial value. For applications with extremely high mounting density of various devices, low fuel consumption and non-polluting Although this proposal is excellent in terms of points, there are some points to be improved as follows. (1) For vehicles and other facilities powered by an internal combustion engine,
If only the exhaust heat obtained from the cooling water for cooling the engine is used, the required temperature level and the amount of heat are insufficient during idling operation. (2) Forming the adsorbent tank 14 and the steam tank 15 integrally limits the degree of freedom of mounting. (3) It is advantageous to use the heat exchanger 22 of the cooling circuit and the evaporator 2 (steam unit) of the adsorption refrigerator 1 together. (4) As a heat source convenient for desorption, in order to increase the amount of refrigerant that contributes to evaporation by increasing the respiratory volume of the solid adsorbent and increase the cooling capacity, it is preferable that the desorption temperature be high, and that the engine be cooled. If water-based engine exhaust heat alone is not sufficient, it is desirable to also use the heat retained by the engine exhaust heat.

Therefore, the applicant of the present invention has previously disclosed Japanese Patent Application No. 2-32.

[0008] This adsorption type cooling device comprises two adsorbent filling tanks 100A and 100B, and a solid adsorbent 120 and a solid adsorbent 120, respectively.
The empty space 101 is connected by a single vapor passage 810 via a four-way switching valve 900, and each adsorbent filling tank 100A,
The heat exchange member 110 of 100B is connected in parallel to the heating heat medium circuit 200 and the cooling water circulation circuit 300 on the inlet and outlet sides, respectively, via directional switching valves 900 and 1000, and one of the directional switching valves is selectively switched. The adsorbent filling tank can be heated and the other can be cooled. The condenser 400, the condensed liquid storage container 500, and the evaporator 600 are moved from the space of one adsorbent filling tank to the space of the other adsorbent filling tank via the closed circulation system forming means 800 and the four-way switching valve 700.

The exhaust heat exchanger 220 is connected in series or in parallel, and the radiator 212 and the adsorbent filling tank are connected in parallel via the flow dividing valve 213. In this way, a higher temperature heat source obtained by cooling the cylinder portion of the engine 211 is obtained.
A throttle 811 is provided on the upstream or downstream side of the steam passage 810 from the evaporator 600 to supply steam suitable for the load.
Is provided. The load of the evaporator 600 is, for example, a duct 611.

Since a drain naturally occurs with the cooling, the drain is used to cool the air cooler 310 and / or the condenser 400, that is, the cooling water circulation circuit 300, thereby improving the performance. The four-way switching valve 700 and the directional switching valves 900 and 1000 may be configured as shown in a modified view of FIG. 6 using a two-way valve.

FIG. 7 shows adsorption isotherms when water acting as a refrigerant is used as the adsorbate and the adsorbent is (a) JIS A type silica gel, (b) molecular 13X, and (c) molecular 4X. 8 and 9. For example, in the case of JIS A type silica gel and water, as shown in FIG. 7, the water vapor partial pressure 42.2 mmHg (equivalent saturation temperature 35 ° C.) The adsorption amount qt _{= 85} = 5% at the adsorbent temperature 85 ° C. The water vapor partial pressure 6 0.5 mmHg (equivalent saturation temperature 5 ° C.) When the adsorbent temperature is 35 ° C., the adsorbed amount is different from qt _{= 35} = 9%. Since this change is a reversible change, by appropriately selecting the temperature of the adsorbent and the corresponding pressure of the adsorbate, a predetermined amount of adsorbate can be taken in and out. Δq is 4%, that is, the amount of water movement of 40 g per kg of the adsorbent. FIG. 10 shows the equilibrium respiratory volume Δq of water of each adsorbent. In this apparatus, two units of a container filled with an adsorbent and an adsorbate are provided, and the two levels of pressure and temperature at the interface between the adsorbent and the adsorbate in the container, respectively, when one is in the desorption process at a high level, the other is Is selectively switched to a low-level adsorption process, so that the vapor released from one container (or the adsorbent in the container) in the desorption process is discharged into the other container (or container) in the adsorption process. The other container (or the adsorbent in the container) acts as a kind of suction pump. Since the transfer of the adsorbate to or from the container proceeds in the gas phase, it should be placed in the container so that it proceeds smoothly, that is, to make the contact of the adsorbate with the adsorbent and the uniform separation from the adsorbent. Is provided with a space serving as a passage for the adsorbate vapor, and the vapor is moved through a flow path connected to the space.

Supply and removal of heat to the adsorbent interface: In order to raise and lower the temperature of the adsorbent, a heat source for heating and a cooling source for cooling are required. The heat exchange member 110 is provided so that the adsorbent covers the surface of the heat exchange member 110, and a heat medium passage is built therein and communicates with the outside through heat medium supply ports 131A and 131B. This outside is connected to the adsorbent filling tanks 100A and 10A, respectively.
A pair of direction switching valves 900 and 1000 for selectively connecting the inlets and outlets of the heat medium supply ports 131A and 131B in parallel to the heat medium circuit 200 for heating and the cooling water circulation circuit 300 in parallel.
, A heating medium circuit 200 for heating a high-temperature liquid as a heating source and a cooling water circulation circuit 300 having an air cooler 310 as a cooling source are selectively connected to perform heating and cooling. As a result, desorption occurs at the interface of one adsorbent and adsorption proceeds at the interface of the other adsorbent.

Condensation and evaporation of adsorbate vapor: Since the thermodynamic cooling effect does not occur simply by the movement of the adsorbate vapor accompanying desorption and adsorption, the adsorbate vapor obtained by desorption is cooled to extract the latent heat of the adsorbate. Then, once condensed, a step of evaporating this is indispensable. The condensation of the desorbed vapor is performed through a condenser 400 cooled by a cooling water circulation circuit 300 having an air cooler 310, and the liquefied adsorbate condensed in the condenser 400 is evaporated in an evaporator 600, and a desired medium is removed. Take away heat, ie take out the cooling action. At this time, the pressure between the condenser 400 and the evaporator 600 is, for example, 4 if the condensing temperature is 35 ° C. from the relation of the gas-liquid equilibrium as an operating variable.
The condenser 400 and the evaporator 600 are designed so as to satisfy 2.2 mmHg and 6.5 mmHg if the evaporation temperature is 5 ° C., which involves the transfer of heat.

Switching of steam flow paths: The interiors of the two adsorbent filling tanks communicate with each other through two flow paths of a four-way switching valve 700, and the other two flow paths of the four-way switching valve 700 flow. The road is
From one side to the other, a closed circulation system forming means 800 connected in order of the condenser 400, the liquid storage container 500, and the evaporator 600 forms a single vapor flow path. And they form a single steam channel, 2
While the base adsorbent-filled tank alternately repeats desorption and adsorption respectively, the space of the adsorbent-filled tank on the desorption side is always on the inlet side of the condenser 400, and the space of the adsorbent-filled tank on the adsorption side is always It is connected to the outlet side of the evaporator 600 and produces a one-way vapor flow.

Suppression of vapor flow fluctuation due to switching between desorption and adsorption operation: When liquid storage container 500 alternately switches between desorption and adsorption of two adsorbent filling tanks, it suppresses fluctuation of vapor flow in the vapor flow path. It acts as a buffer.

Cooling action: The adsorbate liquefied in the condenser 400 self-cools to the pressure saturation temperature at the inlet of the evaporator 600, and then evaporates by removing heat from the medium as a cooling load. For example, when the evaporation pressure saturation temperature is 5 ° C., the latent heat of evaporation of water is 594.
Since it is 6 Kcal / kg, a cooling effect of 23.8 Kcal is obtained per unit weight (1 kg) of the adsorbent.

Waste heat recovery of internal combustion engine: automobile, construction machine,
Cooling of the internal combustion engine used for a vehicle powered by an internal combustion engine such as a marine boat, or equipment equipped with a diesel generator or the like is performed by cooling water circulating around a cylinder of the engine by a cooling water circulation circuit 210. Done. An exhaust heat exchanger 220 is connected in series or parallel to the cooling water circulation circuit 210 to recover the exhaust heat of the engine and to recover a predetermined amount of heat at a higher temperature than that recovered by the conventional cooling water circulation circuit 210, and to desorb the adsorbent. Increase the temperature, increase the respiration rate of the adsorbate, thereby increasing the amount of steam generated per unit weight of the adsorbent, and enhance the cooling effect. In addition, while obtaining the same cooling effect, the adsorbent filling tank can be reduced in size and weight with a small amount of adsorbent. The cooling load of the vehicle varies depending on the type of vehicle, driving conditions, and weather conditions. For example, the cooling load is as follows. That is, in the case of a passenger car having a displacement of 2000 cc class, if the outside air temperature is 35 ° C. and the vehicle interior temperature is 25 ° C., the vehicle speed is approximately 3500 Kcal / h at a vehicle speed of 40 km / h and approximately 2500 Kcal / h during idling operation. On the other hand, paying particular attention to idling operation, the heat radiation of the radiator in the existing cooling water system is about 2600 Kcal
/ H. The amount of heat that contributes to cooling with respect to the amount of heat used for heating is such that the coefficient of performance of this type of cooling device is 0.
Considering that it is 5 to 0.7, it turns out to be insufficient. Here, if the amount of heat held by the exhaust gas is recovered up to about 200 ° C., the amount of heat recovered from the internal combustion engine as a whole is estimated to be about 4500 Kcal / h, which is a heat amount that can sufficiently cover the cooling load. The running conditions can be calculated similarly, and exhaust heat recovery is required.

Air cooler and / or evaporator 6 for increasing the condensation capacity
Since air containing water vapor acts as a cooling load at 00, the saturation partial pressure of water vapor in the air cooled by the evaporator decreases, and excess water vapor is separated as a drain 601. If this cooled drain 601 is used to cool the air cooler 310 of the cooling water circulation circuit 300 and / or the condenser 400 cooled by the cooling water circulation circuit 300, it helps to prevent loss of cold heat and increase the capacity of the air cooler and / or condensation. .

Selection of the adsorbent: Once the adsorbate is determined and the adsorption temperature, desorption temperature, evaporation pressure and condensation pressure are determined, the selection of the adsorbent depends on the factors governing the cooling capacity per unit weight of the adsorption cooler. Become. Adsorbate is water, adsorption temperature /
Desorption temperature = 35/85 ° C, evaporation temperature saturation pressure / condensation temperature saturation pressure = 6.5 / 42.2 mmHg The respiratory volume of the adsorbent is as follows: (1) 4.0% (2) 2% (3) 2.5% (4) 1.
5% However, (1) JIS A type silica gel (2) Activated alumina (3) Zeolite 4A (4) Zeolite 13X, JIS of granular porosity of angstrom order
Type A silica gel to activated alumina are preferred as adsorbents.

However, in the structure shown in FIG. 8, as shown in FIG. 14, which is a summary diagram thereof, when a 2000 cc class passenger car is taken as an example, both the cooling heat recovery device for the engine 211 and the exhaust heat exchanger 220 thereof are used. By using both heats, the load can be satisfied under all cooling conditions, but surplus heat of about 500 ° C or more is always generated. The fact is that the heat is dissipated, which leads to an increase in the space on the vehicle, an increase in weight, and an increase in cost. The present invention has been proposed in view of such circumstances, the together when achieving increased significantly cooling capacity the degree of freedom in the arrangement of the apparatus and reduce the size of the adsorbent vessel, vehicle space, weight and cost increase Ri FIG reduction and suppression of fuel consumption, and an object thereof is to provide an economical adsorption chiller energy saving and pollution-free.

In addition , during the operation of the idle-up device, suction of the filling tank on the desorption process side is performed.
When the desorption of Chakuzai becomes the standby state to be completed, the adsorption

If the exhaust heat of the engine alone is not enough, use the heat of the exhaust of the engine to contribute to the increase in the respiratory volume of the adsorbate
When for the cooling capacity of the unit weight equivalents have enough cooling device
It can be improved to al. (6) steam channel is the only and together when as this type of cooling system is a large place contributes very a simple configuration reduction in size and weight, the expected reliability increase by a very simple structure it can. ( 7 ) Since the vehicle is lighter and does not require engine power, the vehicle's transportation power is reduced and fuel efficiency is improved.
