Title:
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR COOLING FLUID AND DEHUMIDIFYING AND COOLING GAS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/1997/017586
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A gas flow (Aa) saturated with vapor of a volatile liquid such as water and containing a large quantity of floating fine particles of a volatile liquid such as atomized water is sent into one group of small through holes (4) of a cross flow type or counter flow type heat exchanger (3), while a fluid (B) to be cooled is passed through another group of small through holes (5), sensible heat exchange being carried out between the gas flow (Aa) and fluid (B), the fine particles of a volatile liquid floating in the gas flow (Aa) being gasefied in accordance with an increase in the temperature of the gas flow (Aa), the fluid (B) being cooled owing to this gasification phenomenon. When water is used for the fine particles of a volatile liquid floating in the gas flow (Aa), cold air flow can be supplied in large quantities at a low cost, and, when a liquid of a low boiling point, such as methanol is used for the fine particles of a volatile liquid, the cooling temperature can be reduced.
