Summary
For this study, a hybrid cooling system is numerically analyzed which combines a liquid desiccant cycle, a vapour compression cycle, and solar energy storage. LiCl aqueous solution was selected as a working fluid of the liquid desiccant cycle, and the regeneration of the solution can be carried out by the solar energy. It was found that the concentration of the solution should be properly determined in order to ensure the smooth operation of the regenerator and the absorber. The COP of the system was greatly improved if the solution was regenerated solely by solar energy. Parametric studies were also carried out to evaluate the influence of operation conditions on the system performance.
