Reducing Autoclave Cycle Times Through the Use of Pressurized Water Mold Temperature Controllers - (PPT)

摘要

Conclusions: Autoclaves burn a lot of energy; Heat slowly; Are scary to be inside. Safety: Much like an expansion valve in a refrigeration system, water, although not as effective as Freon, when decompressed, shows dramatic reductions in temperature. Further cooling occurs through evaporation in the air. The amount of water which can pass through the opening is 1/2 of the amount if it was cold water. The combination of these effects reduces the amount energy at depressurization as compared to saturated steam to 1/10.
