Definitions
- This invention is in the field of dehumidification and in particular is concerned with improved efficiency of desiccant type dehumidifiers. BACKGROUND OF INVENTION
- Dehumidifying systems based on liquid desiccants dehumidify air, by passing the air through a tank filled with desiccant.
- the moist air enters the tank via a moist air inlet and dried air exits the tank via a dried air outlet.
- a shower of desiccant from a reservoir is sprayed into the tank and, as the desiccant droplets descend through the moist air, they absorb water from it.
- the desiccant is then returned to the reservoir for reuse. This causes an increase in the water content of the desiccant.
- Water saturated desiccant accumulates in the reservoir and is pumped therefrom to a
- regenerator unit where it is heated to drive off its absorbed water as vapor.
- Regenerated desiccant which heats up in this process, is pumped back into the reservoir, for reuse. Since the water absorption process leads to heating of the air and the regeneration process heats the desiccant, substantial heating of the air takes place during the water absorption process.
- the present invention is designed to utilize heat transfer in a new way in the process of regenerating its liquid desiccant thereby enhancing the overall efficiency of the system.
- a heat pump extracts heat from liquid desiccant, preferably in a humidity collector unit and transfers it to a heating coil in a regenerator unit thereby reducing the overall energy required by the system.
- this transfer of energy has the effect of cooling the desiccant which contacts the moist air that enters the system.
- dry air which exits the system is cooler than it would be in the absence of the heat transfer.
- heat energy in one or more of moisture laden air which exits the regenerator, heated desiccant which exits the regenerator and air which exits the dehumidifier is used to heat the desiccant to be regenerated either on its way to or in the regenerator tank.
- a dehumidifying system which receives moist air and produces dryer air, the system comprising: a reservoir containing a quantity of a desiccant solution at a first temperature; a regenerator in which desiccant solution is heated to a second temperature, higher than the first temperature to remove moisture therefrom; and a heat pump which transfers heat from the desiccant outside the regenerator to desiccant in or traveling to the regenerator.
- the heat pump transfers heat from the desiccant in the reservoir to the desiccant in the regenerator.
- the desiccant from which the heat is being transferred is preferably at a lower temperature than the desiccant to which it is being transferred.
- the system includes means for transferring desiccant from the reservoir to the regenerator when it is desired to remove moisture therefrom.
- the system includes means for transferring regenerated desiccant having a reduced moisture content from the regenerator to the reservoir.
- the desiccant from which heat is being transferred is regenerated desiccant leaving the regenerator.
- the heat is transferred to desiccant being transported to the regenerator.
- heat pump is at a lower temperature than desiccant leaving the heat pump to the regenerator.
- a preferred embodiment of the system includes means for transferring heat from the regenerated desiccant being transferred to the regenerator.
- the system in which moist incoming air is brought into contact with desiccant from said reservoir, said moist air being thus dried, the system includes a heat transfer device which transfers energy from said dried air after it exits the dehumidifier to desiccant entering or within said regenerator.
- the dried air is at a lower temperature than the desiccant to which heat is transferred from the dried air.
- the system includes a heat transfer device which transfers heat from the moisture removed from the desiccant by the regenerator to desiccant entering or within said regenerator.
- said moisture is at a lower temperature than the desiccant to which heat is transferred from the dried air.
- the dry air exiting the dehumidifier is at substantially the same temperature as or cooler than the moist air entering the dehumidifier.
- Fig. 1 shows a dehumidifier unit, in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the invention.
- a dehumidifying system 10, in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the invention comprises, as its two main sections, a dehumidifying chamber 12 and a regenerator unit 32. Moist air enters dehumidifying chamber 12 via a moist air inlet 14 and dried air exits chamber 12 via a dry air outlet 16.
- desiccant 28 is pumped by a pump 20 and associated motor 37 from a desiccant reservoir 30 via a pipe 13 to a series of nozzles 22.
- nozzles shower a fine spray of the desiccant into the interior of chamber 12, which is preferably filled with a cellulose sponge material 24 such as is generally used in the art for such purposes.
- the desiccant slowly percolates downward through the sponge material into reservoir 30.
- Moist air entering the chamber via inlet 14 contacts the desiccant droplets. Since the desiccant is hygroscopic, it absorbs water vapor from the moist air and drier air is expelled through outlet 16.
- reservoir 30 is located on the bottom of chamber 12 so that the desiccant from sponge 24 falls directly into the reservoir.
- a divider 38 receives desiccant from pipe 13 and sends part of the desiccant to nozzles
- Regenerator 32 preferably comprises a chamber 34, which chamber 34 preferably comprises a heater (not shown) and a heat exchanger 36 which heat the desiccant to drive off part of the water vapor it has absorbed, thus regenerating it.
- Regenerated liquid desiccant is transferred back to reservoir 30 via a pipe 40 and a tube 42 of sponge material such as that which fills chamber 12.
- Tube 40 is preferably contained in a chamber 58 which has an inlet 60 and an exit 62. Air enters chamber 58 via inlet 60 and carries away additional moisture which is evaporated from the still hot desiccant in tube 42. Air exiting at exit 62 carries away this moisture and also moisture which was removed from the desiccant in the regenerator.
- a fan (not shown) at exit 62 sucks air from chamber 58.
- heat is transferred from the regenerated liquid desiccant to the desiccant entering or in regenerator 32 by bringing the two desiccant streams into thermal (but not physical) contact in a thermal transfer station (not shown).
- a heat pump may be used to transfer additional energy from the hotter desiccant
- a heat pump system 44 which extracts heat from the desiccant in reservoir 30 to provide energy to heat exchanger 36.
- heat pump system 44 includes (in addition to exchanger 36 which is the condenser of the system) a second heat exchanger 46 in reservoir 30, which is the evaporator of the system, and an expansion valve 56. This transfer of energy results in a reduced temperature of the desiccant which contacts the air being dried thus reducing the temperature of the dried air. Second, this transfer of energy reduces the overall requirement of energy for operating the regenerator by up to a factor of 3.
- this method of heating of the desiccant in the regenerator may be supplemented by direct heating, utilizing a heating coil (not shown).
- the proportion of water vapor in the desiccant in reservoir 30 and in the regenerated desiccant must generally be within certain limits, which limits depend on the particular desiccant used.
- a lower limit on the required moisture level is that needed to dissolve the desiccant such that the desiccant is in solution in the moisture.
- the moisture level is too high, the desiccant becomes inefficient in removing moisture from the air which enters chamber 12.
- some desiccants are liquid even in the absence of absorbed moisture. The moisture level in these desiccants need not be so closely controlled. However, even in these cases the regeneration process (which uses energy) should only be performed when the moisture level in the desiccant is above some level.
- This monitoring function is generally performed by measurement of the volume of
- a preferred method of measuring the volume of liquid in the reservoir is by measurement of the pressure in an inverted vessel 50 which has its opening placed in the liquid in the reservoir.
- a tube 52 leads from vessel 50 to a pressure gauge 54.
- the pressure measured by gauge 52 increases. Since the liquid in the chamber and in the regenerator is fairly constant, this gives a good indication of the amount of desiccant and thus of the amount of moisture entrained in the desiccant.
- heat pumps or other heat transfer means are provided to transfer heat from the dried air exiting chamber 12 and or from the heated moist air leaving regenerator chamber 34, to heat the desiccant on its way to or in chamber 34. If heat pumps are used, the source of the heat may be at a temperature lower than the desiccant to which it is transferred.
- cooling of the desiccant in the reservoir can result in dried air leaving the dehumidifier which has the same, or preferably a lower temperature than the moist air entering the dehumidifier, even prior to any additional optional cooling of the dry air.
- This feature is especially useful where the dehumidifier is used in hot climates in which the ambient temperature is already high.
- the present invention has been described utilizing a preferred embodiment thereof. It should be understood that many variations of the preferred embodiment within the scope of the invention, as defined in the following claims, are possible and will occur to a person of skill in
