Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a heat pump drying system with direct humidity regulation and an operation method thereof, belonging to the technical field of heat pump drying. Background Art
[0002] Product drying in the industrial and agricultural production process is a high energy consumption process. Heat pump drying equipment has the advantages of recycling waste heat and convenient humidity control. It uses the reverse Carnot principle to absorb the heat of the surrounding environment or the exhaust air of the drying box and transfer it to the drying room to increase the temperature of the drying room. When adjusting humidity, heat pump drying generally uses a built-in evaporator to cool and dehumidify the dry hot air.
[0003] The following problems still exist for the closed heat pump drying cycle. First, the dry air enters the drying box to dry the material after being heated by the condenser, transfers heat to the material and takes away the moisture of the material, and flows out of the drying box after the temperature drops. In order to remove moisture from the air, the heat pump evaporation temperature needs to be reduced to below the dew point temperature, corresponding to a lower evaporation temperature, and then continues to dry after being heated by the condenser. In this process, the dry air undergoes a heating, cooling and dehumidification process, and there is a waste of heat offset by cooling first and then heating, and the operating evaporation temperature is low, resulting in a significant reduction in the heat pump performance coefficient. Taking the drying temperature of 60°C and the relative humidity of 15% as an example, considering a 5°C temperature difference, the temperature of the dry air flowing out of the drying box is 55°C and the relative humidity is 20.9%. In order to dehumidify, the 55°C air needs to be cooled to 25.7°C, and the required cooling heat exceeds 37.6kJ / kg. The temperature difference from the end point of dehumidification to the drying point is 36°C. This large cooling heat demand requires a larger evaporator or a lower evaporation temperature to achieve a temperature reduction of nearly 31°C, resulting in an overly large evaporator design area or a low evaporation temperature for the heat pump to operate. Otherwise, the dehumidification requirements cannot be met, which increases the flow resistance and directly reduces the heat pump performance coefficient. The large temperature difference demand for reheating will also lead to an overly large condenser area or a high condensation temperature, which will also reduce the heat pump performance coefficient, and even be comparable to the efficiency of electric heating. Users cannot feel the high efficiency and energy saving performance of heat pump drying. Second, in traditional heat pump drying equipment, in order to simultaneously meet the dehumidification and heating of dry air, a condenser needs to be set up to discharge excess heat, otherwise the heating temperature will be out of control, and this setting will cause additional heat waste. Third, the drying temperature of heat pump drying is relatively low (40~80°C range), which leads to a slow dehydration speed in the later stage of drying, a long overall drying time, and even product deterioration. For this reason, it is necessary to innovate the design of the heat pump drying system to meet the dehumidification requirements. Summary of the invention

The present invention completes the heating and dehumidification of dry air by heat pumps and solid dehumidification materials respectively, overcoming the problem of mismatch of cold and heat in system operation caused by the heat pump condenser and evaporator realizing heating and dehumidification respectively.
[0022] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: first, the solid dehumidification material is used to ensure low humidity conditions for heat pump drying, thereby increasing the heat pump drying speed. The system of the present invention utilizes the high-temperature gas of the heat pump refrigerant discharged from the compressor to condense in two heat storage condensers, releasing heat to the phase change material and the hygroscopic material, so that the material can quickly remove moisture, and continue to absorb moisture in the dry air after regeneration to obtain the lower relative humidity required for drying. The introduction of the heat storage condenser makes full use of the sensible heat of the heat pump exhaust, avoids heat waste, and can also achieve temporary storage of heat. At the same time, since the temperature of the dry air heated by the heat pump is usually in the range of 40 to 80°C, and its temperature range is relatively low, this dehumidification method ensures the low humidity requirements required for heat pump drying, maintains a high water vapor partial pressure difference between the dry air and the material, has a greater dehumidification capacity, and improves the drying speed of the heat pump drying, especially in the later stage of drying.
[0023] Secondly, the moisture of the dry air is removed by solid hygroscopic materials instead of using the heat pump evaporator, thereby reducing the impact of dehumidification on the operating conditions and efficiency of the heat pump. In the present invention, the hygroscopic materials in the first dehumidification box or the second dehumidification box are used to remove the moisture of the dry air, and the evaporator dehumidification method commonly used in heat pump drying is not used. A higher evaporation temperature can be obtained, the evaporator and condenser area can be reduced, the initial investment in the evaporator and condenser equipment can be reduced, and the heat exchange efficiency of the evaporator and condenser can be improved. The contradiction of the mismatch between the heating and dehumidification heat requirements in the operation of the heat pump is avoided, and the operating stability and reliability of the equipment are improved, thereby improving the performance coefficient of the heat pump system and giving full play to the advantages of high efficiency and energy saving of the heat pump.
[0024] Thirdly, in the system of the present invention, the first dehumidification box or the second dehumidification box is used to dehumidify the dry air in turn, thereby ensuring the continuous and uninterrupted operation of the heat pump drying.
[0025] Fourthly, the system of the present invention uses the first total heat exchanger and the second total heat exchanger to recover the waste heat of the exhaust gas regenerated by the hygroscopic material and heat the outdoor fresh air. In addition, the first heat pipe heat exchanger and the second heat pipe heat exchanger are used to recover the heat after the temperature rise of the hygroscopic material dehumidification, which further realizes the full utilization of the waste heat and improves the overall operation efficiency of the system.
[0026] Finally, the present invention has the advantages of convenient adjustment and one machine with multiple uses. The system adopts a condenser and two heat storage condensers arranged in series, and uses the sixth solenoid valve, the second solenoid valve and the air volume regulating valve and other components to make full use of the high-temperature compressor exhaust to obtain a higher regeneration temperature, ensure the heating demand, and meet the regeneration temperature requirements of the solid hygroscopic material; by opening the seventh solenoid valve bypassing the condenser, the heat storage operation can be realized, and the refrigerant exhaust from the compressor enters the first heat storage condenser and the second heat storage condenser through the first solenoid valve and the second solenoid valve respectively, and heat is stored for dehydration and regeneration of the solid hygroscopic material; closing the seventh solenoid valve, the refrigerant not only enters the first heat storage condenser and the second heat storage condenser but also continues to flow into the condenser to release heat, realizing heating and heat storage at the same time; the heat pump dehumidification and drying operation dehumidification mode and the drying operation without dehumidification mode can be switched, which is beneficial to ensure the multi-mode operation of the unit; the functions of introducing fresh air and dehumidification are realized by opening the fourth air volume regulating valve, the fifth air volume regulating valve, the sixth air volume regulating valve or the seventh air volume regulating valve.

The compressor exhaust releases heat in the first heat storage condenser 2-1 and the second heat storage condenser 2-2 to first heat the heat storage phase change medium therein, and then transfers the heat to the solid hygroscopic material to evaporate the water therein. If the drying air temperature is lower than the set drying temperature of the material, the seventh solenoid valve 20 is closed, and the working fluid enters the condenser 3 and exchanges heat with the air to become a high-temperature and high-pressure liquid, and enters the liquid storage 4. Otherwise, the seventh solenoid valve 20 is opened, and the refrigerant directly enters the liquid storage 4. Then it enters the throttle valve 6 through the fifth solenoid valve 5, and after throttling by the throttle valve 6, it becomes a low-temperature and low-pressure gas and flows into the evaporator 7. After absorbing heat in the evaporator 7, it is completely vaporized and then enters the compressor 1 to complete the next cycle. When the heat pump is running in the non-dehumidification mode, the heat pump subsystem can also operate to store heat in the heat storage condenser 2-1 and the second heat storage condenser 2-2.
[0038] In the dry operation without dehumidification mode, the third air volume regulating valve 17-3 in the dry air subsystem is opened, and the other first air volume regulating valves 17-1, second air volume regulating valves 17-2, fourth air volume regulating valves 17-4, fifth air volume regulating valves 17-5, sixth air volume regulating valves 17-6, seventh air volume regulating valves 17-7, eighth air volume regulating valves 17-8, and ninth air volume regulating valves 17-9 are all closed. Driven by the fan 10, the dry air is heated by the condenser 3, enters the drying box 14 to the drying temperature, takes away the moisture of the material, and enters the condenser 3 again after passing through the third air volume regulating valve 17-3, and repeats the above cycle after heating.
[0039] In the dry operation dehumidification mode, at least one of the upper branch or the lower branch of the dry air subsystem is opened, and the third air volume regulating valve 17-3 is closed or partially opened. When the third air volume regulating valve 17-3 is partially opened, air flows in the middle branch, and the air of the middle branch and the two branches of the upper branch or the lower branch are mixed to achieve relative humidity adjustment. In this way, the opening of the air volume regulating valve can be changed, so that the flow of each branch reaches the relative humidity setting value after mixing.
[0040] When the lower branch is opened, the dry air is dehumidified through the lower branch, and the upper branch performs heating and regeneration of the dehumidifying material. At this time, the first air volume regulating valve 17-1, the fifth air volume regulating valve 17-5, the seventh air volume regulating valve 17-7 and the eighth air volume regulating valve 17-8 are all opened, and the second air volume regulating valve 17-2, the fourth air volume regulating valve 17-4, the sixth air volume regulating valve 17-6, and the ninth air volume regulating valve 17-9 are all closed.

When the second solenoid valve 9-2 is opened, the second heat storage condenser 2-2 and the heat storage medium therein heat the solid hygroscopic material, evaporate the water therein, and complete the regeneration of the hygroscopic material. Driven by the fan 10, the dry air is heated by the condenser 3 and enters the drying box 14 to the drying temperature, taking away the moisture of the material. All or part of the air enters the first dehumidification box 15-1 through the first air volume regulating valve 17-1, and the dehumidification material in the first dehumidification box 15-1 removes the moisture in the air. After the air absorbs moisture and the temperature rises, it flows out of the first dehumidification box 15-1 and enters the evaporation section of the first heat pipe heat exchanger 19-1, transferring the heat to the working medium in the evaporation section. After the working medium is vaporized, it rises and enters the condensation section of the first heat pipe heat exchanger 19-1, releasing heat to the air in the middle branch, realizing heat recovery. The dry air flows out of the evaporation section of the first heat pipe heat exchanger 19-1 and flows out through the eighth air volume regulating valve 17-8. When only part of the air passes through the first air volume regulating valve 17-1, the other part of the air flows out after passing through the third air volume regulating valve 17-3 (partially opened), and then enters the condenser 3 after merging with the air flowing out of the eighth air volume regulating valve 17-8, and repeats the above cycle after heating. The outdoor air enters through the fresh air passage of the second total heat exchanger 16-2, and then enters the second dehumidifier box 15-2 through the fifth air volume regulating valve 17-5 to take away the water evaporated by the hygroscopic material, enters the evaporation section of the second heat pipe heat exchanger 19-2 to release heat, and then flows into the exhaust passage inlet of the second total heat exchanger 16-2 through the seventh air volume regulating valve 17-7, and is discharged to the outdoor environment after releasing heat, completing the regeneration of the hygroscopic material.
[0041] When the upper branch is opened, the dry air is dehumidified through the upper branch, and the lower branch performs heating and regeneration of the dehumidifying material. At this time, the second air volume regulating valve 17-2, the fourth air volume regulating valve 17-4, the sixth air volume regulating valve 17-6 and the ninth air volume regulating valve 17-9 are all opened, and the first air volume regulating valve 17-1, the fifth air volume regulating valve 17-5, the seventh air volume regulating valve 17-7, and the eighth air volume regulating valve 17-8 are all closed. The sixth solenoid valve 8 in the heat pump subsystem is closed and the first solenoid valve 9-1 is opened. When the first solenoid valve 9-1 is opened, the first heat storage condenser 2-1 and the heat storage medium therein heat the solid hygroscopic material, evaporate the water therein, and complete the regeneration of the hygroscopic material. Driven by the fan 10, the dry air is heated by the condenser 3 and enters the drying box 14 to the drying temperature, taking away the moisture of the material. All or part of the air enters the second dehumidification box 15-2 through the second air volume regulating valve 17-2, and the dehumidification material in the second dehumidification box 15-2 removes the moisture in the air. After the air absorbs moisture and the temperature rises, it flows out of the second dehumidification box 15-2 and enters the evaporation section of the second heat pipe heat exchanger 19-2, transferring the heat to the working medium in the evaporation section. After the working medium is vaporized, it rises and enters the condensation section of the second heat pipe heat exchanger 19-2, releasing heat to the air in the middle branch, realizing heat recovery. After the dry air flows out of the evaporation section of the second heat pipe heat exchanger 19-2, it flows out through the ninth air volume regulating valve 17-9. When only part of the air passes through the second air volume regulating valve 17-2, the other part of the air flows out after passing through the third air volume regulating valve 17-3 (partially opened), and then enters the condenser 3 after merging with the air flowing out of the ninth air volume regulating valve 17-9, and repeats the above cycle after heating. The outdoor air enters through the fresh air passage of the first total heat exchanger 16-1, enters the first dehumidifier box 15-1 through the fourth air volume regulating valve 17-4, takes away the water evaporated from the hygroscopic material, and flows into the exhaust passage inlet of the first total heat exchanger 16-1 through the sixth air volume regulating valve 17-6, and is discharged to the outdoor environment after releasing heat, completing the regeneration of the hygroscopic material.
