Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an energy recovery system for a textile sun drying machine. Background Technology

[0002] Green, low-carbon, and environmentally friendly practices are increasingly becoming a new mainstream trend. In order to address global climate change, promote economic transformation, fulfill international responsibilities, and promote sustainable development, we need to start from the actual work scenarios of our units, transform our instruments and equipment, reduce energy consumption in the testing process, and thus reduce carbon emissions in the laboratory during the testing and inspection process.

[0003] Currently, the national standard method for testing color fastness to sunlight is GB / T 8427-2019 Textiles - Tests for color fastness to artificial light: Xenon arc. This method uses an artificial xenon arc lamp to simulate the effect of sunlight, causing the dye molecules on the surface of textiles to decompose and change color. After sunlight exposure, the color fastness grade is assessed to form a test and evaluation of the color fastness of textiles.

[0004] The laboratory uses artificial xenon arc lamps and glass filters to simulate sunlight, thereby studying its effect on the color fastness of textiles to sunlight.

[0005] Currently, most laboratories discharge waste heat from the tanning machine into the tanning laboratory, which then uses air conditioning to cool the equipment and the tanning chamber. This operation is typically energy-intensive, increasing laboratory testing costs, and is prone to problems. Based on previous experience, one laboratory experienced an incident where the air conditioning in the tanning chamber froze, causing the equipment to overheat and shut down, threatening laboratory safety.

[0006] A small number of laboratories directly release waste heat into the outdoor atmosphere without treatment. Although this practice can effectively reduce the working pressure of air conditioning in sun-exposed laboratories, it still does not conform to the current mainstream development concept.

[0007] With the continued implementation of my country's dual-carbon policy and the development concept that "lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets" taking root in people's hearts, the times urgently require us to propose better low-carbon solutions. Utility Model Content

[0026] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0027] Please see Figures 1-3 As shown, the embodiments of this utility model include:

[0028] A textile sun-drying machine energy recovery system includes a sun-drying chamber 1 and a sun-drying machine 2, a solar collector 3, a water-cooled evaporator 4, a thermoelectric generator 5, a water tank 6, a submersible pump 7, and a water tap 8 inside the chamber.

[0029] The sunroom 1 is equipped with a door 101 on one side to facilitate the entry and exit of staff.

[0030] The top of the sun dryer 2 is equipped with an exhaust vent 201 for discharging the high-temperature exhaust gas inside.

[0031] The solar collector 3 is a square tubular structure distributed longitudinally. The air inlet at the bottom of the solar collector 3 is connected to the exhaust port 201 via the adapter 9, and the air outlet at the top is connected to the exhaust outlet 10 and communicates with the outside of the sunroom 1. The solar collector 3 is used for heat exchange during the conduction process of high-temperature exhaust gas.

[0032] The collector 3 has longitudinally arranged heat collection plates 301 of varying sizes, which are distributed in a cone shape from the middle to both sides. The blank part of the cross-section of the collector has a four-leaf clover feature. This shape of the collector is conducive to maximizing heat exchange with high-temperature exhaust gas.

[0033] A set of water-cooled evaporators 4 is provided on any outer side of the solar collector 3. The water-cooled evaporators 4 are fixed on the outer side of the solar collector 3 and are used to generate a temperature difference between the solar collector 3 and the solar collector 3.

[0034] The water-cooled evaporator 4 has an inlet 401 at the bottom and an outlet 402 at the top on one side to achieve water circulation.

[0035] The thermoelectric generator 5 is installed between the water-cooled evaporator 4 and the solar collector 3. There are four groups of 10 thermoelectric generators 5, each using TEG1-199-1.4-0.5 thermal interface material. Each group of thermoelectric generators 5 is connected in series, and the four groups are connected in parallel to the power converter, which then connects to a battery to store electrical energy. The stored energy is converted into mains power by an inverter, and then processed by a UPS power supply for use as an emergency power source, or directly to provide energy for lighting or low-power equipment. When the stored energy is insufficient, the UPS power supply can switch to mains power.

[0036] The water tank 6 is fixed to the inner wall of the sun-drying chamber 1. A submersible pump 7 is installed on the lower side of the water tank 6 and is connected to the inlet 401 of the water-cooled evaporator 4 through a pipeline. The outlet 402 of the water-cooled evaporator 4 flows back to the water tank 6 through a pipeline. The faucet 8 is connected to an external water source and is fixed to the inner wall of the sun-drying chamber 1 above the water tank 6. Water is introduced into the water tank 6 through the faucet 8. The submersible pump 7 pumps water to the inlet 401 through a pipeline. The water flows from bottom to top through multiple pipelines in the water-cooled evaporator 4 and collects from the top of the multiple pipelines to the outlet 402 and flows back to the water tank 6 through a pipeline to complete the circulation.

[0037] Measurements showed that the exhaust gas temperature of the solar collector 2 was around 86℃, while the ambient temperature was 25℃. Theoretically, each solar collector could output 1.86V and 0.76A under load with a temperature difference of 60℃. Ten solar collectors were connected in series, and four groups were connected in parallel, providing 18.6V and 3.04A, for a total power of 56.5W. However, the actual measured voltage was 15.8V, the current was 2.2A, and the power was only 34.76W, which is 61.5% of the theoretical power. This is due to two factors: firstly, the temperature difference between the upper and lower ends of the collector 3 causes uneven voltage distribution between the solar collectors; secondly, the temperature difference decreases slightly during power generation as the external water temperature rises.

[0038] The collected electrical energy is charged into a 12V 60AH battery via a power conversion module. The battery is then converted to 220V AC mains power by an inverter, which is then connected to a UPS to power the rating light boxes in the darkroom next to the sun-drying laboratory. When the battery's charge is insufficient, the inverter module stops outputting power, and the UPS instantly switches back to AC mains power. When the battery is fully charged, other electrical equipment can be connected, such as a water purifier, lighting circuits, or a submersible pump providing circulating water.

[0039] The battery selected in this design is matched with the working time of the equipment in this center, and the storage capacity of the battery is 12*60=0.720KWH.

[0040] Our center currently has two air-cooled sun tanning machines, which tan for an average of 10 hours per day, generating 34.76 * 10 * 2 = 0.6952 kWh of electricity.

[0041] In summary, the energy recovery system for a textile sun-drying machine disclosed in this utility model saves a significant amount of energy consumption from the air conditioning unit. Furthermore, it can recover and utilize the waste heat from the sun-drying machine. The reduced energy consumption and recovered energy offset most of the carbon emissions from daily sun-drying activities, making it energy-saving, low-carbon, and environmentally friendly.

[0042] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made using the content of this utility model specification, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
