CZ33284U1 - Equipment for water condensation - Google Patents

Description

The technical solution relates to a device for condensing water from air in order to use the resulting fluid - water.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

It is known from the prior art to cool air by means of a system comprising an evaporator and a condenser. There is also a known solution for extracting water from the air, where the precipitated water drips down the aluminum tip directly into the glass. However, this solution has a minimum performance of only about 1 dcl per 6 hours of operation. Furthermore, a solution of the University of California is known, where the air is expelled using specially formulated MOFy-based material. This solution provides enough water, but it is uneconomical and the water obtained is very expensive. Furthermore, a solution is known where the device is built into the space and one part of it, together with the water tank, is located underground and air is blown into this part, which condenses in the underground cooled part. The disadvantage of this solution is the necessity to place the device in the ground, which is, for example, in mountainous or otherwise inhospitable conditions very problematic.

The equipment used so far, by their technical solution, do not provide enough output raw material, water or they are ineffective by their technical solution.

The essence of the technical solution

The above mentioned disadvantages are eliminated by a water condensation device comprising a cooling circuit, which includes an outlet, which is connected to a compressor, a condenser and an expansion valve via a plurality of coolant-containing tubes, according to the present invention. environment. The ambient temperature air passing through the evaporator is cooled to a dew point and thereby condenses, the water condensing device further comprising a photovoltaic panel, and the cooled air is conducted below the photovoltaic panel to cool it. The photovoltaic panel is intended for supplying individual elements of water condensation equipment. The air is further directed to a condenser where the heat generated by the compressor is transferred to the cooled air and discharged into the surrounding environment.

It is expedient for the flush to be provided with at least one fluid collector and it is also advantageous to have at least one air filter for trapping impurities.

It is preferred that at least one filter unit is connected to the water collector to obtain drinking water.

Furthermore, it is preferable that the air condensation device comprises a spare power supply to ensure continuous continuous operation, for example, connection directly to the mains or batteries

Example of technical solution implementation

A device for condensing water from the air, which is placed in an open space, for example an open area of the garden, draws in ambient air at a temperature of Ti by means of a fan 2, the ambient temperature varies depending on the place and time of year. this temperature Ti 30 ° C.

The water condensation device comprises a cooling circuit 1 which is formed by a set of tubes 15 containing a cooling fluid, for example a gas. The gas passes through the compressor 12 where the pressure increases and the temperature then passes to the condenser 13 where the generated heat is transferred to the ambient air. Further, the refrigerant enters the expansion valve 14 where the gas pressure is reduced and cooled. The cooled gas enters the evaporator 11 where it receives the heat of the intake air. Cooling circuit 1 is designed for cooling the ambient air at the inlet.

The intake air passes through an outlet 11, preferably provided with an air filter 111, where the air is cooled by means of a cooling circuit 1 and the air cooled to the dew point condenses and the water is preferably collected in the fluid collector 4.

The cooled air from the evaporator 11 flows towards the condenser 13 while also guided below the photovoltaic panel 3, and the underside of the photovoltaic panel 3 is cooled by cold air, thereby maximizing its efficiency and also increasing the efficiency of the entire plant by increasing compressor capacity 12, the transferred heat or cold of the air passing through and the amount of condensate produced is subsequently increased.

The cooled air further receives heat from the cooling circuit 7 downstream of the compressor 12 and is discharged into the environment.

In a preferred embodiment, the device is provided with a filter unit 5 for the production of drinking water, which is stored in a collecting vessel 6 with a drain valve 7.

By way of example, it is advantageous to connect the device to another power supply 9, for example from the mains or backup batteries, to ensure continuous operation even at night when the photovoltaic panel 3 is not functional due to the inability to use solar energy.

In a preferred embodiment, the device is provided with a protective cover 8 to ensure safe and trouble-free operation.

Industrial applicability

Water condensation equipment for extracting water from ambient air can be used in all areas where water is scarce or increasingly needed.
