AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEMS FOR SMALL BUILDINGS IN HOT, HUMID CLIMATES.

Author(s) : SO'BRIEN G. C.

Summary

THE FEASIBILITY OF USING LIQUID DESICCANT DEHUMIDIFICATION-HUMIDIFICATION SYSTEMS FOR AIR CONDITIONING IN HOT, HUMID CLIMATES IS CONSIDERED. IT IS FOUND THAT, IN ORDER TO MEET ASHRAE DESIGN SPECIFICATIONS, A LITHIUM CHLORIDE SOLUTION IS NEEDED. CALCULATIONS SHOW THAT A SOLAR DRIVEN SYSTEM USING A 45% LITHIUM CHLORIDE SOLUTION, REGENERATED AT TEMPERATURES BETWEEN 60 AND 70 DEG C, WITH AN OVERALL COP OF THE ORDER OF 0.2-0.3, IS CAPABLE OF HANDLING THE PEAK COOLING LOAD.
