Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioning equipment technology, and in particular to a water temperature enhancement system for a high-pressure micro-mist humidifier for air conditioning. Background Technology
[0002] In the environmental control of the lotus pond, the high-pressure micro-mist humidifier of the air conditioner uses room temperature tap water. Humidification is achieved by atomizing the water under high pressure and spraying it into the air, utilizing the evaporation of the atomized water. The humidification effect directly depends on the amount of water evaporated. However, in winter, due to the lower ambient temperature, the tap water temperature drops, and the water viscosity increases, resulting in a significant reduction in the mist output of the high-pressure micro-mist humidifier and a substantial decrease in humidification efficiency. This makes the existing high-pressure micro-mist humidification system unable to fully meet the stringent temperature and humidity requirements of the lotus pond's on-site processes. To ensure that the humidity in the pond meets the standards, steam humidification is often introduced as a supplement. However, the large-scale introduction of steam humidification leads to huge steam consumption, increasing water resource costs and causing insufficient energy utilization, which is detrimental to achieving the goals of energy conservation, emission reduction, and efficient operation. Utility Model Content
[0003] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a water temperature enhancement system for a high-pressure micro-mist humidifier for air conditioning, which can solve the technical problems of reduced atomization humidification efficiency and the need for a large amount of steam for humidification replenishment in the existing technology when the ambient temperature is low, which not only increases the cost of water resources, but also results in insufficient resource utilization.
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0005] A water temperature enhancement system for an air conditioning high-pressure micro-mist humidifier includes a scale inhibitor and a heat exchanger and a high-pressure micro-mist humidifier connected in sequence thereto. The scale inhibitor has a scale-inhibiting inlet and a scale-inhibiting outlet. The scale-inhibiting inlet is connected in sequence to a thermometer I, a check valve, a water meter I, and a gate valve I. The scale inhibitor is connected in sequence to the heat exchanger via a gate valve II, a temperature sensor I, and a pressure gauge I. The heat exchanger is connected in sequence to the high-pressure micro-mist humidifier via a gate valve III, a thermometer II, and a pressure gauge II. The high-pressure micro-mist humidifier has a low-pressure inlet. The heat exchanger is equipped with a high-pressure mist outlet, which is connected to an air conditioning unit. A gate valve IV, a temperature sensor II, and a pressure gauge III are connected sequentially between the high-pressure mist outlet and the air conditioning unit. The heat exchanger also has a condensate inlet and a condensate outlet. A solenoid valve I, a thermometer III, a pressure gauge IV, and a gate valve VI are connected sequentially between the condensate inlet and the condensate outlet. A steam trap is connected between the condensate outlet and the steam trap. A pressure gauge V, a thermometer IV, and a gate valve V are connected sequentially between the condensate inlet and the condensate outlet. A solenoid valve II is also installed between the condensate inlet and the condensate outlet.
[0006] As an improvement to the above technical solution, the scale inhibitor has an external water source connected to its scale inlet.
[0007] As an improvement to the above technical solution, the heat exchanger is provided with a heat exchange inlet and a heat exchange outlet. The heat exchange inlet of the heat exchanger is connected to pressure gauge I, and the heat exchange outlet of the heat exchanger is connected to gate valve III. The heat exchanger is a shell-and-tube heat exchanger.
[0008] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution described in this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0009] 1. This utility model has the characteristics of reasonable structural design, strong practicality, convenient operation, high heat exchange efficiency, and high resource utilization. This utility model can accurately raise the temperature of water through the heat exchanger when the ambient temperature is low, so that the water mist after atomization can evaporate and diffuse in the air more quickly, avoiding the situation where water mist condenses into water droplets near the air outlet of the air conditioning unit due to low water temperature. This effectively increases the air humidity, significantly improves the humidification effect of the air conditioning unit, and provides a more suitable humidity environment for the indoor environment.
[0010] 2. By incorporating a scale inhibitor, this utility model adds a certain amount of scale inhibitor to the tap water before it enters the high-pressure micro-mist humidifier. This effectively prevents scale buildup and clogging of the nozzles of the high-pressure micro-mist humidifier caused by the high alkalinity of tap water when heated. This reduces the frequency of equipment maintenance and repair costs, extends the service life of the high-pressure micro-mist humidifier and related components, and ensures the stable operation of the equipment.
[0011] 3. The close coordination of each link in this utility model makes the water treatment and transportation smoother and reduces energy loss during transmission. Compared with the humidification system in the prior art, this utility model can achieve higher efficiency humidification under the same energy consumption, providing an efficient guarantee for the environmental control of the lotus special warehouse.
[0012] 4. This utility model reuses steam condensate, allowing the steam condensate to enter the heat exchanger to heat the tap water before being discharged, thus realizing energy recovery, making full use of the waste heat that might otherwise be wasted, reducing additional energy consumption, and effectively reducing the amount of steam used when the ambient temperature is low, thereby reducing operating costs and meeting the development requirements of energy conservation and emission reduction.

[0020] Example 1
[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, this utility model provides a water temperature enhancement system for an air conditioning high-pressure micro-mist humidifier.
[0022] The system includes a scale inhibitor 1 and a heat exchanger 2 and a high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3 connected thereto in sequence. The scale inhibitor 1 has a scale-inhibiting inlet and a scale-inhibiting outlet. The scale-inhibiting inlet is connected in sequence to a thermometer I101, a check valve 102, a water meter I103, and a gate valve I104. The scale inhibitor 1 is connected to the heat exchanger 2 in sequence to a gate valve II105, a temperature sensor I106, and a pressure gauge I107. The heat exchanger 2 is connected to the high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3 in sequence to a gate valve III201, a thermometer II202, and a pressure gauge II203. The high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3 has a low-pressure inlet and a high-pressure mist outlet. The high-pressure mist outlet is connected to an air conditioning unit. A gate valve IV 301, a temperature sensor II 302, and a pressure gauge III 303 are connected sequentially between the high-pressure mist outlet and the air conditioning unit. The heat exchanger 2 is also provided with a condensate inlet and a condensate outlet. A solenoid valve I 204, a thermometer III 205, a pressure gauge IV 206, and a gate valve VI 207 are connected sequentially between the condensate inlet and the condensate outlet of the heat exchanger 2. A steam trap is connected to the condensate outlet of the heat exchanger 2. A pressure gauge V 208, a thermometer IV 209, and a gate valve V 210 are connected sequentially between the condensate inlet and the condensate outlet. A solenoid valve II 211 is also provided between the condensate inlet and the condensate outlet.
[0023] In this embodiment, the scale inhibitor 1 has an external water source connected to its scale inlet. Before the tap water enters the high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3, a certain amount of scale inhibitor can be added to the water through the scale inhibitor 1. This effectively prevents the nozzles of the high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3 from scaling and clogging due to the high alkalinity of the tap water when heated. This reduces the frequency of equipment maintenance and repair costs, extends the service life of the high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3 and related components, and ensures the stable operation of the equipment.
[0024] In this embodiment, the gate valve I104 can control the flow of tap water, connecting the water source during system operation and cutting off the water source during maintenance or repair; the water meter I103 is used to measure the amount of tap water entering the system, facilitating the statistics of water resource usage; the check valve 102 can prevent backflow of water, avoid the backflow of scale inhibitors and other substances, and ensure the unidirectional stable flow of water in the system; the thermometer I101 can monitor the temperature of tap water entering the scale inhibitor 1 in real time, making it easy for operators to grasp the initial temperature of the water entering the system.
[0025] In this embodiment, the heat exchanger 2 is provided with a heat exchange inlet and a heat exchange outlet. The heat exchange inlet of the heat exchanger 2 is connected to pressure gauge I 107, and the heat exchange outlet of the heat exchanger 2 is connected to gate valve III 201. The heat exchanger 2 is a shell-and-tube heat exchanger 2, which has high thermal efficiency and good pressure resistance, and can meet the standards of maximum heat load and long-term stable operation. The gate valve II 105 can control the water flow from the scale inhibitor 1 to the heat exchanger 2, which is convenient for adjusting the flow rate. The temperature sensor I 106 is used to monitor the water temperature that is about to enter the heat exchanger 2 after scale inhibition treatment, and provides data for judging the working status of the heat exchanger 2. The pressure gauge I 107 can display the water pressure in the pipeline between the scale inhibitor 1 and the heat exchanger 2 in real time, ensuring that the system operating pressure is within a safe range.
[0026] In this embodiment, the gate valve III 201 controls the water flow from the heat exchanger 2 to the high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3, thereby achieving flow regulation; the thermometer II 202 monitors the water temperature after it has been heated by the heat exchanger 2, ensuring that the water temperature entering the high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3 meets the requirements; the pressure gauge II 203 displays the water pressure in the pipeline between the heat exchanger 2 and the high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3 in real time to maintain stable system operation. When the ambient temperature is low, the heat exchanger 2 precisely raises the water temperature, allowing the atomized water mist to evaporate and diffuse in the air more quickly, avoiding the condensation of water mist into water droplets near the air outlet of the air conditioning unit due to excessively low water temperature. This effectively increases air humidity, significantly improves the humidification effect of the air conditioning unit, and provides a more suitable humidity environment for the indoor environment.
[0027] In this embodiment, the gate valve IV 301 can control the output water mist of the high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3 and cut off the output when needed; the temperature sensor II 302 is used to monitor the temperature of the output water mist of the high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3 to ensure that the output temperature meets the standard; the pressure gauge III 303 can display the pressure at the high-pressure mist outlet of the high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3 in real time to ensure stable output pressure; the air conditioning unit can disperse the output water mist into the environment to achieve the humidification function.
[0028] In this embodiment, the gate valve VI 207 controls the opening and closing of the steam condensate; the pressure gauge IV 206 displays the pressure at the steam condensate inlet in real time to ensure normal steam condensate flow; the thermometer III 205 monitors the steam condensate temperature at the steam condensate inlet of the heat exchanger 2, providing a basis for evaluating the heat exchange effect; the solenoid valve I 204 opens when the high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3 is started to control the steam condensate flow into the heat exchanger 2, achieving heat exchange with tap water, and can cut off the steam condensate flow when the system is not running; the pressure gauge V 208 displays the pressure when the steam condensate is discharged in real time to ensure smooth steam condensate discharge; the thermometer IV 209 monitors the temperature of the steam condensate discharged from the heat exchanger 2 to determine whether the heat exchange is sufficient; the gate valve V 210... The steam condensate discharge after heat exchange can be controlled to facilitate subsequent maintenance of the steam condensate trap. The steam condensate trap is used to discharge condensate from the system, preventing condensate accumulation from affecting the normal operation of the system and ensuring the smooth flow of steam condensate within the system. The solenoid valve II 211 can adjust the flow path or flow rate of steam condensate in the heat exchanger 2. When the high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3 is started, steam condensate enters the heat exchanger 2, is heated by tap water, and then discharged. If the temperature of the steam condensate discharged from the heat exchanger 2 does not meet the emission standard as monitored by thermometer IV 209, the steam condensate can flow back into the heat exchanger 2 through the opening and closing action of the solenoid valve II 211. The reuse of steam condensate realizes energy recovery, makes full use of waste heat, reduces additional energy consumption, and achieves the purpose of energy saving and consumption reduction.
[0029] This embodiment also includes a control system, which comprises a PLC controller. The PLC controller is electrically connected to temperature sensor I 106, temperature sensor II 302, solenoid valve I 204, and solenoid valve II 211. The PLC controller can receive water temperature information from temperature sensor I 106 indicating the water temperature about to enter heat exchanger 2 after scale inhibition treatment, and receive temperature information from temperature sensor II 302 indicating the temperature of the water mist output from high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3. It controls solenoid valve I 204 to open when high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3 starts to control the flow of steam condensate into heat exchanger 2, and controls solenoid valve II 211 to open the condensate inlet and outlet of heat exchanger 2 to re-feed steam condensate that does not meet emission standards into heat exchanger 2 for heat exchange. The PLC controller is a Siemens S7-1200 PLC controller, and it is externally powered.
[0030] It should be noted that this application does not improve the programmable program of the Siemens S7-1200 PLC controller, but only utilizes its existing control program and principles to realize the data calculation and comparison functions. For the control program and principles involved, please refer to the controller product manual or existing technical documents.
[0031] Example 2
[0032] This utility model also provides a method for raising the water temperature of an air conditioner high-pressure micro-mist humidifier, which is applied to the above-mentioned air conditioner high-pressure micro-mist humidifier water temperature raising system, and the specific steps include:
[0033] Step S1: Open gate valve I104 to introduce tap water from an external water source into the water temperature enhancement system. As the tap water flows towards the scale inhibitor 1, water meter I103 measures the amount of tap water flowing into the water temperature enhancement system. Thermometer I101 monitors the temperature of the tap water entering the scale inhibitor 1 in real time. When the tap water flows through the scale inhibitor 1 towards the heat exchanger 2, a certain amount of scale inhibitor is added to the water through the scale inhibitor 1. This can effectively prevent the nozzles of the high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3 from scaling and clogging due to the high alkalinity of the tap water when heated. At this time, the check valve 102 set at the scale inhibitor inlet of the scale inhibitor 1 can prevent backflow of water and avoid the backflow of scale inhibitor and other substances.
[0034] Step S2: Open gate valve II 105 and gate valve III 201 to allow the water output from scale inhibitor 1 to flow through heat exchanger 2 to high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3. During this process, temperature sensor I 106 monitors the water temperature that is about to enter heat exchanger 2 after scale inhibition treatment, and pressure gauge I 107 displays the water pressure in the pipeline between scale inhibitor 1 and heat exchanger 2 in real time. Heat exchanger 2 exchanges heat with the water flowing into it and delivers the heated water to high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3. Thermometer II 202 monitors the water temperature after it has been heated by heat exchanger 2, and pressure gauge II 203 displays the water pressure in the pipeline between heat exchanger 2 and high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3 in real time. At the same time, open gate valve VI 207 to allow steam condensate to flow to heat exchanger 2 to exchange heat with the scale-inhibited water, so that the water flowing to high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3 is already heated water.
[0035] Step S3: In step S2, when the steam condensate flows to the condensate inlet of heat exchanger 2, pressure gauge IV 206 can display the pressure at the steam condensate inlet in real time, thermometer III 205 is used to monitor the temperature of the steam condensate entering the steam condensate inlet of heat exchanger 2, and solenoid valve I 204 opens when the high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3 is started to control the flow of steam condensate into heat exchanger 2, realizing heat exchange with tap water. During the process of the steam condensate exchanging heat through heat exchanger 2 and being discharged from the condensate outlet of heat exchanger 2 to the steam trap, pressure gauge V 208 displays the pressure when the steam condensate is discharged in real time, and thermometer IV 209 is used to monitor the temperature of the steam condensate entering the heat exchanger 2. The temperature of the steam condensate discharged from heat exchanger 2 is used to determine whether the heat exchange is sufficient. Gate valve V210 can control the discharge of the steam condensate after heat exchange to the steam trap or to re-enter heat exchanger 2 through solenoid valve II211. If thermometer IV209 detects that the temperature of the steam condensate discharged from heat exchanger 2 does not meet the emission standard, the steam condensate can flow back into heat exchanger 2 through the condensate inlet under the opening and closing action of solenoid valve II211. The steam condensate is reused until thermometer IV209 detects that the temperature of the steam condensate discharged from heat exchanger 2 meets the emission standard. Then, solenoid valve II211 closes, and the steam condensate after heat exchange is discharged from the steam trap.
[0036] Step S4: In step S2, the heated water is pressurized by the high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3 to deliver the generated water mist to the air conditioning unit. During this process, gate valve IV 301 controls the output water mist of the high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3, temperature sensor II 302 monitors the temperature of the output water mist of the high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3, and pressure gauge III 303 displays the pressure at the high-pressure mist outlet of the high-pressure micro-mist humidifier 3 in real time. Finally, the air conditioning unit disperses the output water mist into the environment to achieve the humidification function.
[0037] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
