ABSTRACT:
A cyclone condensing apparatus having a structure in which air of high-temperature and high-humidity sufficiently contacts cooling water, and condensed water is efficiently discharged to the outside, and a washing/drying machine having the cyclone condensing apparatus. The cyclone condensing apparatus includes an air inlet connected to the upper part of a casing having a conical shape along a tangential direction; an air outlet disposed along the central line of the casing, and a plurality of cooling water spray nozzles disposed along the circumferential direction of the casing. A spiral groove for guiding condensed water downwards is formed in the inner circumferential surface of the casing, and a water-collecting container for collecting the condensed water is connected to the lower end of the casing. The cyclone condensing apparatus further includes an air blast fan and a heater in the washing/drying machine, and is connected to an air circulating duct forming a closed circuit together with a dry tub, thereby condensing water from air of high-temperature and high-humidity passed through the dry tub.
