Abstract

This product which uses heat from split-unit type condensers as the latest initiative in the effort to dry clothes besides natural and even electric appliances that use a lot of electricity. The goal of this product is to create something new that can produce a product such as a clothes dryer. Further, the use of clothes dryer generates maximum electricity consumption. Excessive use of electricity will have an adverse effect on the environment and will also cause depletion of the ozone layer. As a first step towards protecting the environment, this method can help reduce electricity consumption and also benefit from heat from condensers to dry clothes. As a result of this project, we can see how the clothes are dried using hot air from the condenser based on the difference between the initial mass of the clothing being wet and the mass of the clothing being dried. Some data were collected during the course of this study, such as temperature, humidity, drying time of clothes and calculations for drying rate as well as SMER. For single inlet drying time, optimal initial mass, optimum drying rate and SMER was 55 min, 1.89 kg, 0.398 kg / h, and 0.752 kg / kWh. Then, for multi inlet average drying time, optimal initial mass, optimum drying rate and SMER was 45 min, 1.89 kg, 0.487 kg / h, and 0.974 kg / kWh. As the conclusion, The main conclusion of this study is that the dryer space for drying clothes using waste heat from split unit type air conditioning is time consuming and energy efficient.
