摘要

摘要: 实验探究空气取水装置取水效率的影响因素，结果表明处理风机风速、环境空气温度和相对湿度都会影响装置的取水效率。实验中发现，翅片表面的冷凝水产生后未能及时滴落，而是黏附在翅片间形成水桥，这对装置的取水效率产生负面影响。为提高装置的取水效率，对冷凝翅片进行优化。使用COMSOL软件建模进行仿真分析，优化半导体制冷型空气取水装置的冷凝翅片结构，并在翅片表面涂覆疏水性材料，促使冷凝水快速滴落，提高了装置的取水效率。

Abstract: An experimental investigation was conducted to explore the factors influencing the water harvesting efficiency of an air-water harvesting device. The results indicate that fan speed, ambient air temperature, and relative humidity significantly affect the performance. During the experiments, it was observed that condensate on the surface of the fins failed to shed promptly. Instead, it adhered between fins and formed water bridges, which negatively affected the water harvesting efficiency. To address this, the condenser fins were optimized. Using COMSOL for modeling and simulation, the fin structure of the semiconductor refrigeration air-water harvesting device was optimized, and hydrophobic materials were coated on the fin surface to facilitate rapid condensate shedding, thereby increasing the device's water harvesting efficiency.
