Abstract

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de stockage à sec (30) et son procédé de ventilation. Le dispositif de stockage à sec (30) comprend un boîtier qui délimite une chambre de séchage. Le boîtier est pourvu d'un trou d'alimentation en air (33). Le procédé de ventilation pour le dispositif de stockage à sec (30) comprend : l'acquisition d'un signal de départ pour déclencher la ventilation du dispositif de stockage à sec (30); l'ouverture du trou d'alimentation en air (33) en fonction du signal de départ, de manière à apporter du gaz refroidi par une source froide à la chambre de séchage; et la mesure de l'humidité de la chambre de séchage, et la fermeture du trou d'alimentation en air (33) après que l'humidité a atteint une première valeur d'humidité prédéfinie, de manière à augmenter la température de la chambre de séchage dans un état hermétique. Dans le procédé de ventilation, la ventilation démarre en fonction du signal de départ, et la fin de la ventilation est commandée en fonction de l'humidité, de manière à s'assurer que l'air à basse température apporté peut entièrement remplacer l'air humide dans la chambre de séchage, et la consommation d'énergie électrique due à la longue durée d'alimentation en air peut également être évitée.
