AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The existing condenser duct structure lacks an effective turbulence structure, resulting in uneven distribution of drying airflow and condensate, limited contact area, short heat exchange time, discontinuous water film formation, low heat exchange efficiency, and consequently, insufficient condensation, poor dehumidification, and long drying time.

Method used

A honeycomb porous structure is used to cover the cross-section of the condenser duct. The condensate and drying airflow cross-flow within the honeycomb pores, increasing the contact area and residence time, forming a stable and continuous water film, and improving heat exchange efficiency.

Benefits of technology

It significantly improves the uniformity of condensate and drying airflow distribution and heat exchange efficiency, enhances the condensation effect and energy efficiency of clothing processing equipment, and shortens drying time.

Abstract

The present application provides a condensing assembly and a clothes treatment apparatus, the condensing assembly comprising a condensing air duct and a turbulence member, the turbulence member being arranged in the condensing air duct; the turbulence member is a plate member with a honeycomb porous structure and covers the cross section of the condensing air duct; the porous structure forms honeycomb holes penetrating through the thickness direction thereof for the condensing water and drying air flow; the honeycomb porous structure makes the condensing water and drying air flow form cross flow in the honeycomb holes, effectively breaking the boundary layer of the condensing water and drying air flow, significantly improving the distribution uniformity of the two in the condensing air duct; the honeycomb holes provide a large number of micro channels, greatly increasing the contact surface area of the condensing water and drying air flow, while prolonging the residence time of the drying air flow in the condensing air duct, enhancing the heat exchange efficiency; the condensing water adheres and flows on the side wall of the honeycomb hole, forming a stable and continuous water film, ensuring sufficient contact between the condensing water and drying air flow, and improving the condensing effect.
