Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of marine air dehumidification, and in particular relates to an internally cooled air dehumidification system and method utilizing ship waste heat regeneration and fresh water cooling. Background Art

[0002] Ships, as an important means of transporting goods in world trade, undertake about 90% of the world's cargo transportation volume. The span of the ship's navigation area is very large. In different seasons and different sea areas, the external climate conditions vary significantly with the sea area. In the hot summer, the relative humidity of the sea surface air is usually 70% to 80%, or even 100%. According to the requirements for air conditioning in ship accommodation spaces in GB / T 13409-92 standard, if conventional compression refrigeration and air conditioning are used, a large amount of air conditioning cooling load is required to reduce the moisture content of the air by using condensation dehumidification, and the power consumption is high. Solid adsorption dehumidification uses adsorbents to physically adsorb water molecules in humid air. It mainly includes rotary and fixed types. Since the rotary type can work continuously, it is the most used, but the overall device is large in size, occupies a large space, has high energy consumption, and the air quality is greatly affected by environmental factors. In fixed adsorption dehumidification, the release of adsorption heat causes the equilibrium adsorption temperature between the adsorbent and the treated air to increase, while the hygroscopic performance of the adsorbent decreases and the heat and moisture transfer potential difference between dehumidification and regeneration increases. The regeneration temperature required for the cycle increases, and it is difficult to improve the overall cycle performance.

The fresh water pump 8 is started to send the fresh water into the cooling water pipe of the first adsorption dehumidification heat exchanger 4 through the first solenoid valve 3. The fresh air fan 5 and the regeneration air fan 7 are started, and the outdoor fresh air is filtered by the filter 1, flows into the a end of the first three ventilation valves 2, flows out through the b end, and is adsorbed and dehumidified by the adsorbent attached to the fins, and then is sucked into the cabin by the fresh air fan. On the regeneration air side, since the moisture content of the indoor air is lower than that of the outdoor fresh air, the water vapor partial pressure is lower, and it is used as the regeneration air, which is conducive to the regeneration process and flows outside the pipe of the heat exchanger 12. Part of the exhaust gas discharged by the main / auxiliary engines of the ship is introduced into the pipe of the heat exchanger 12 to heat the regeneration air coming from the cabin. The heated high-temperature and low-humidity air flows through the b and a ends of the second three-ventilation valve, enters the second adsorption dehumidification heat exchanger 10, heats and regenerates the adsorbent on the fins, and takes away the desorbed water vapor, and then flows through the b and a ends of the third three-ventilation valve 14. The high-temperature and high-humidity regeneration air is discharged through the regeneration air fan 7.

[0053] After running for T time, if Figure 3 As shown, the adsorption and regeneration process of the first and second adsorption dehumidification heat exchangers are switched (second operating state). The PLC action opens the a and c ends of the first three ventilation valves 2, the a and c ends of the second three ventilation valves 10, opens the a and c ends of the third three ventilation valves 14, and closes the b end of the first three ventilation valves, the b end of the second three ventilation valves and the b end of the third three ventilation valves 14. Close the first solenoid valve 3, open the second solenoid valve 9 and the air valve 13, and the cooling fresh water is pumped into the pipe of the second dehumidification heat exchanger 10 by the fresh water pump 8 to cool the adsorbent on the fins and absorb the adsorption heat released by the adsorption process of the adsorbent. After being filtered by the filter 1, the fresh air flows through the a and c ends of the first three ventilation valves, enters the second adsorption dehumidification heat exchanger 10, and after adsorption and dehumidification, enters the a and c ends of the second three ventilation valves 11, and is then sent into the cabin through the fresh air fan. The regenerated air heated by the exhaust gas of the main / auxiliary engines of the ship flows into the first dehumidification heat exchanger 4 through the air valve 13, and heats and regenerates the adsorbent on the fins after absorbing moisture. The regenerated air after absorbing moisture passes through the c and a ends of the third ventilation valve 14 and is discharged through the regeneration air fan 7.
