AIR CONDITIONER Russian patent published in 2002 - IPC

FIELD: transport engineering; vehicle air conditioners. SUBSTANCE: proposed air conditioner has housing with inlet branch pipe. Tray and heat exchange plates made of capillary porous material at one side and water tight material at other side. Heat exchanger plates form main channels with outlet branch pipe and auxiliary channels. Air conditioner has also channels with heat exchange plates of hot and cold junctions of thermopiles. Channels are interconnected are provided with outlet branch pipe and are placed in communication with auxiliary channels. Trap of condensate from channel with heat exchange plates of cold junctions of thermopiles is connected with tray. Novelty is that channels of with heat exchange plates of hot and cold junctions of thermopiles are placed in communication with auxiliary channels through channel with heat exchange plates of thermopile hot junctions. EFFECT: increased output of conditioned air. 3 dwg
