Abstract (en)

[origin: US2010212176A1] A tumble dryer including a heat pump that includes a Peltier module having a plurality of Peltier elements operationally associated therewith and wherein the Peltier module has a cold side and a warm side; at least two air-directing ducts including a first duct in fluid communication with the Peltier module cool side through which cooling air is directed for cooling and dehumidifying; and a second duct in fluid communication with the Peltier module warm side through which dried air is directed for reheating; and an air and water vapor permeable filter disposed in the second duct facing the Peltier elements. Moisture which arises on the Peltier elements can thereby escape into the duct.
