Re: chilled compressed air.
This begs the question- Why?
100psi through cap tube into your ear my be funny though :D
Re: chilled compressed air.
Chilling the air below 0c would obviously cause the condensing moisture in the air to freeze. Only way to do it is use a dessicant dryer, you`d easily get down to -60c PDP The only problem is they use a small amount of compressed air to purge the dryer so you`d need a larger air compressor.
Re: chilled compressed air.
The whole tank would be a drier. However it would have to defrost to drain cycle. The cap tube would bleed in 100% air….It was a passing thought. Like a micro data center. I will now go back to my padded cell.
Re: chilled compressed air.
Most commercial compressed air driers consist of two shell and tube heat exchangers, one refrigerant to air and the other air to air, they are piped in series for the compressed air flow.
The air leaving the refrigerant to air heat exchanger passes into the air to air heat exchanger in contra flow with the incoming air, pre-cooling the air into the process.
There is always a separator to remove the condensed water from the compressed air lines this can be done via a solenoid valve on timed schedule.
Re: chilled compressed air.
Yes, I have worked on air driers before, but this is a different invention. If the compressed air tank is wrapped in a coil to cool it below freezing, the moisture will drop out of the cold compressed air I would think. This dry, very cold air, blowing out of cap-tubes might not be good for the electronics because of static electricity as I now think.
Perhaps the idea could have other uses. I was just putting out ideas to bounce off folks.
