  • This invention relates to a method and apparatus for dehumidifying air for the drying thereof.

  • Suitable primary coolants include admixtures ofa suitable liquid, for instance water, or an aqueous solution of a freezing point depressant, and ice. Volume variations of the primary coolant occur as ice in the admixture melts and liquid freezes and accumulates as ice.
  • This invention utilizes heat capacity of the primary coolant for latent heat at its freezing point.
  • the volume thereof must increase during freezing, and the temperature thereof must remain constant during freezing. Any fluid or admixture with these properties may be employed herein as the primary coolant.
  • water or aqueous solutions of selected freezing point depressants such as NaCl or CaCl may be satisfactorily employed as the primary coolant for this invention.
  • Volume variations of the primary coolant, caused by cyclical freezing and melting of parts thereof, are directly utilized for selectively compressing an expansible member, for instance a bellows, for selectively actuating electric circuits for pumping the secondary coolant,
  • volume variations of the primary coolant are utilized directly or through an intermediary gas, for instance air and preferably nitrogen, confined with the primary coolant in a closed-vessel.
  • a pressure switch for controlling the flow of the secondary coolant is driven by pressure variations corresponding to volume variations of the primary coolant or intermediary gas for maintaining the-quantity of the ice admixed with primary coolant between selectively prescribed'maximum and minimum levels correspondingto preselectedupper and lower pressure switch limits.
  • the invention accordingly comprises the several steps and the relationof one or more of such steps with respect to each of the others, and the apparatus embodying features ofconstruction, combinations of ele ments and arrangement of parts which are adapted to effect such steps, all exemplified in the following detailed disclosure, and the scope of the invention will be indicated in the claims.
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic representation of one type of apparatus for dehumidification of air-constructed in accordance with the invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a schematic representation of another type of apparatus, also constructed in accordance with this invention.
  • an adiabatic, pressure resisting closed vessel 10 is filled with a primary coolant, comprising water or a suitable aqueous solution of freezing point depressant, admixed with a small quantity of a suitable gas, such as air and preferably N
  • a suitable gas such as air and preferably N
  • a coiled pipe 11 is arranged interiorly of vessel I0 for forming a primary heat exchanger, and first and second portions thereof extend exteriorly for providing an inlet 12 and an outlet 13 therefor. On outlet 13, a drain valve 14 is mounted.
  • Another coiled pipe 15 is also arranged interiorly of vessel 10 for forming a secondary heat exchanger, and a portion thereof extends exteriorly of vessel 10 for connecting the pipe I5 to a source of a secondary coolant, such as a refrigerator (not shown).
  • a source of a secondary coolant such as a refrigerator (not shown).
  • the adiabatic, pressure resisting wall of the vessel I0 has an expansible member 16, such as bellows, which responds to volume variations of the primary coolant and an end thereof I7 is displaceable according to volume variations. Displaceable end 17 may be displaced along electrical contacts 18, I9 and 20.
  • Three circuits including the three contacts 18, I9 and 20 and also three lamps 21, 22 and 23, are, respectively, adapted to be energized by a source 24.
  • the lamp 21 is a yellow lamp, which lights when there is an overload.
  • the lamp 22 is a blue lamp, which lights when the refrigerator opcrates and secondary coolant circulates, for operating the secondary heat exchanger.
  • the lamp 23 is a red lamp, which lights when the refrigerator is not operating and secondary coolant is not flowing, but the secondary heat exchanger is still in operation.
  • an electric motor 26 is energized by another power source 27 for driving a pump 31 which pumps secondary coolant through coiled pipe 15 of the secondary heat exchanger.
  • an electromagnetic switch 25 is actuated for deenergizing the motor 26 and, in turn, the pump 31 for automatically avoiding excessive cooling.
  • the primary coolant confined inside the closed vessel 10 is continuously agitated by a stirrer 28 driven by a motor 33 for maintaining the primary coolant at a substantially uniform temperature.
  • the primary coolant has been cooled to C. or near 0 C., and mixed with ice.
  • Air to be dried which may be compressed air, is admitted into the coiled pipe 11 of the primary heat exchanger through inlet 12 for cooling to near 0 C., by the primary coolant, and for separation from water suspended therein.
  • outlet 13 and condensate is drawn off through the drain valve 14.
  • the primary coolant is confined within adiabatic, pressure resisting closed vessel either with or without a small quantity of air which when present accumulates inside the expansible member 16 for transmitting volume variations of the primary coolant to displaceable end 17 thereof and volume variations of the primary coolant are transmitted directly or through the intermediate air to displaceable end 17 which responds accordingly.
  • Mounted on the top wall of closed vessel 10 are a pressure relief means 29 and a pressure gauge 30, for adjusting the maximum pressure of the primary coolant.
  • the relief means 29 and the pressure gauge 30 may be of a conventional construction well-known to the art-skilled.
  • the temperature of the inlet air for processing is higher than 0 C., and therefore the temperature of the primary coolant tends to be elevated at the primary heat exchanger. Because the primary coolant is mixed with ice, it has a substantial heat capacity and a substantial resistance to temperature elevations. While the secondary coolant circulates, the quantity of ice in the primary coolant increases and the overall volume of the primary coolant increases for thereby displacing end 17 of expansible member 16 from its connection with contact 18 to contact with contact 19. Thus, yellow lamp 21 goes out and blue lamp 22 ignites. This indicates that, at this instant, dehumidification of the input air is ready to be effected and started with the primary coolant, and is the desirable normal condition.
  • the primary coolant includes about percent of ice at this instant.
  • yellow lamp 21 ignites while the secondary heat exchanger is operating at full capacity, that signifies that the dehumidifying capacity of the apparatus is short, and therefore, it is necessary to reduce air input.
  • This condition may occur when the volume ratio of ice to primary coolant is less than 20 percent, whereby the reduced volume of primary coolant deflates expansible member 16 and end 17 thereof contacts with contact 18 of yellow lamp 21.
  • the primary coolant to be confined within adiabatic, pressure resisting closed vessel 10 may be water or a selected aqueous solution of a freezing point depressant. Suitable freezing point depressants include sodium salts such as NaCl, calcium salts such as CaCl and the like.
  • the freezing point of the primary coolant may be adjusted from 0 C. to lO C., by the freezing point depressant. When the adjustment is made and when the temperature of the output air at outlet 13 is near 0 C., the temperature gradient between the interior of the coiled pipe 11 and the primary coolant within the closed vessel 10 steepens. By virtue thereof, the heat transferring surface may be reduced for economizing the construction cost of the apparatus.
  • FIG. 2 illustrates another embodiment of the invention.
  • Air for drying is admitted through inlet 12 into a water separator 48 and is cooled thereby.
  • the cooled air is admitted into a heat exchanger 49, wherein the cooled input air is further cooled by the output air directed to the outlet 13.
