AI Technical Summary
The exhaust duct structure control of existing tobacco dryers relies on manual operation, resulting in high labor costs, inaccurate humidity control, and low energy utilization efficiency.
A distributed exhaust duct structure is designed, including an internal unit assembly and an external unit assembly. The top of the internal unit assembly is equipped with a return air duct and an exhaust air guide. The air outlet air direction of the valve outlet of the return air valve is perpendicular to the wind direction of the return air duct and the exhaust air guide. The exhaust volume is controlled through the return air valve, and a heat exchanger is installed at the outlet of the exhaust air duct for heat recovery.
Accurate humidity control without exposed exhaust vents is achieved, reducing labor costs and reducing energy waste through heat recovery.
