A liquid desiccant system for solar cooling and dehumidification.

Author(s) : GOMMED K., GROSSMAN G.

Summary

This paper investigates the use of an open absorption system, where humidity is absorbed directly from the air to be treated by direct contact with the absorbent. The absorbent is then regenerated, again in direct contact with an external air stream, at relatively low heat-source temperatures. The entire operation takes place at atmospheric pressure, thus eliminating vacuum vessels and the like. The paper describes a study on a liquid desiccant cooling system designed to air condition offices on the top floor of a building in the Mediterranean city of Haifa, Israel.
