Summary

A novel solar assisted membrane based liquid desiccant air conditioning system is proposed and investigated for the hot and humid climatic conditions. It uses an air cooling heat exchanger after dehumidifier to maintain the desired temperature of the room air. The energy performance of the proposed system is evaluated in terms of room temperature and specific humidity, and coefficient of performance. In addition, the energy saving potential with respect to the conventional air conditioning system and environmental performance are studied. It is found that the proposed system is able to achieve the comfort room conditions (24°C, 0.0097 kg/kgda) and the yearly energy savings is around 62% when compared with the conventional air conditioning system. Moreover, it is estimated that the proposed system will avoid emissions of 1400, 16 and 6 tons/per year of Carbon dioxide, Nitrous oxide and Sulphur dioxide respectively to the ambient.
