[0002] In the process of industrial production, especially in the food and pharmaceutical industries, low-temperature tunnel lines are widely used. However, during the operation of low-temperature tunnel lines, a key problem is often encountered, that is, the external hot and humid air penetrates into the box through the inlet and outlet of the tunnel line, causing condensation on the surface with lower internal temperature. Condensation will not only reduce the visibility inside the equipment and affect production efficiency, but may also cause product quality to decline or even damage.
[0003] At present, in order to reduce condensation, a common practice is to introduce dry air into the box of the low-temperature tunnel line to maintain a certain positive pressure, thereby preventing the invasion of external moisture. Although this method can inhibit the occurrence of condensation to a certain extent, its effect is limited, because even if a positive pressure is formed inside the box, hot and humid air can still enter the box through the inlet and outlet and the movement of the circulating air in the box, resulting in the occurrence of condensation inside the box.
