Desiccant aging and its effects on desiccant cooling system performance
Applied Thermal Engineering, 1996Desiccants used for the purpose of space conditioning or enthalpy transfer can be subjected to hundreds of thousands of adsorption/regeneration cycles over their useful life. Studying the loss of a desiccant's equilibrium water adsorption capacity after exposure to thermal cycling is a common method for quantifying desiccant aging. Since isotherm shape

Progress in selecting desiccant and dehumidifier for liquid desiccant cooling system
Energy and Buildings, 2012Abstract Liquid desiccant cooling system (LDCS) is an alternative air-conditioning system with good energy-saving potential. Dehumidification performance is the key part of LDCS; while desiccant variety and dehumidifier influence the dehumidification performance.

Journal of Heat Recovery Systems, 1986
Abstract The equilibrium sorption isotherms of a silica gel matrix manufactured in the form of a desiccant felt are experimentally determined as a function of temperature and relative humidity. Using the data, the differential heat of sorption and the integral heat of wetting are calculated. These results then are used as property data in a numerical

Abstract Solid desiccant cooling technology has become a research focus for its features of energy-saving and eco-friendly. However, widely adopted rotary desiccant wheel cooling system can't realize inner-cooling dehumidification process. In this paper, a novel self-cooled solid desiccant cooling system (SCDHE) is developed by integrating desiccant ...

Performance of Cross-Cooled Desiccant Dehumidifiers
Journal of Solar Energy Engineering, 1983A cross-cooled silica gel desiccant dehumidifier model was designed, built, and tested. The performance of the unit was studied as a function of the inlet process stream dew point, process stream and cooling stream flow rates, and regeneration stream temperature and dew point. The tests were also simulated by a computer program and were compared to the

A hybrid solar desiccant cooling system
Solar Energy, 1985Alternative methods of providing cooling using lower-grade energy have been investigated. This paper considers a cycle which combines indirect evaporative cooling with a dehumidifier to meet latent loads and a vapour compression refrigeration unit to meet sensible load.

Review on Recent development in Desiccant Cooling
International Journal of Energy Resources Applications, 2022Due to its sustainable cooling design and inexpensive operation, desiccant based dehumidification and cooling systems have been popular in recent years for humid areas. In general, the desiccant cooling used in conjunction with evaporative cooling as two separate types of configurations according to direct or indirect cooling.

Performance Analysis of a Desiccant Rotor for Rotational Period in a Desiccant Cooling System
Transactions of the Korean Society of Mechanical Engineers B, 2012The performance simulation of a desiccant rotor, which is a core component of a desiccant cooling system, was conducted on the basis of a theoretical solution of the heat and mass transfer process in the rotor. The simulation model was validated by comparing simulation results with experimental data; reasonable agreement was observed. The effect of the
