ShareAn analytical examination of methods for improving the performance of desiccant cooling systems.
Author(s) : COLLIER R. K., COHEN B. M.
Type of article: Article
Summary
Two methods for improving the COP of open-cycle desiccant cooling systems are: the addition of inert heat capacity to the desiccant matrix, and "staging" the regeneration air stream. An analysis is presented which explains the benefits and drawbacks of these methods based upon the wave nature of the heat and mass transfer processes occuring within the desiccant bed.
