Abstract

PURPOSE:To completely defrost an evaporator by providing an ultrasonic generator on the evaporator and applying ultrasonic waves to it in defrosting operation. CONSTITUTION:When frost is forming on a coil evaporator with fin 1 during operation of a freezer, the evaporator 1 is heated by a hot gas defroster, etc., to defrost it. At this time, an ultrasonic generator 3 is turned on to apply ultrasonic waves to the evaporator 1, causing water drops on the evaporator 1 to vibrate and come off. Moreover, the water drop irradiated with ultrasonic waves has overpressure and negativepressure in the liquid, and this negative- pressure tears the liquid up, causing cavitation to occur. When this air bubble of cavitation breaks apart, bursts generate, and impact force at this time accelerates the coming off phenemenon of the water drop. Thus, water drops on the surface of the coil evaporator with fin 1 can be completely removed.

During defrosting operation, ultrasonic waves emitted from the ultrasonic generator propagate through the air and are applied to water droplets attached to the evaporator. This causes the water droplets to vibrate and fall off the evaporator surface. In addition, overpressure and negative pressure are generated in the liquid of water droplets irradiated with ultrasonic waves, and the liquid is torn apart by this negative pressure, causing cavitation. Shock waves are generated when these cavitation bubbles burst, and the impact force at this time promotes the separation of water droplets.

Thereby, water droplets adhering to the surface of the evaporator can be completely removed.

An embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. 1 below. FIG. 1 shows the configuration of an evaporator according to the present invention, in which a finned coil evaporator 1. The ultrasonic generation bag M3 is made up of a fan 2 and an ultrasonic generator 3, and is installed above the finned coil evaporator 1 in the vertical direction so that the drain during defrosting does not fall directly onto it.

Next, the operation of the present invention will be explained. If frost forms on the finned coil evaporator 1 during operation of the refrigeration system, the finned coil evaporator 1 is heated by a hot gas defrost device (not shown) or the like to melt the frost. At this time, the power of the ultrasonic generator 3 is turned on and the finned coil evaporator 1 is irradiated with ultrasonic waves. As a result, water droplets adhering to the finned coil evaporator 1 are vibrated and peeled off. In addition, overpressure and negative pressure are generated in the liquid of water droplets irradiated with ultrasonic waves, and the liquid is torn apart by this negative pressure, causing cavitation. Shock waves are generated when the cavitation bubbles burst, and the impact force at this time promotes the separation of water droplets, thereby making it possible to completely remove the water droplets adhering to the surface of the finned coil evaporator l.
