Author(s) : MATSUKI K., SAITO Y.

Summary

THE PAPER DESCRIBES THE RECENT STATUS OF RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ON DESICCANT COOLING IN JAPAN. A NUMBER OF RESEARCH PROJECTS ON DESICCANT COOLING HAVE BEEN CARRIED OUT SINCE THE OIL CRISIS, IN MANY CASES FINANCIALLY SUPPORTED BY THE GOVERNMENT. THE DESICCANTS USED INCLUDE LITHIUM CHLORIDE, SILICA GEL, AND ZEOLITE, AND THE DESICCANT CARRIERS ARE ROTARY HEAT EXCHANGERS OR BEDS. IN MANY CASES, SOLAR ENERGY IS USED AS THE HEAT SOURCE FOR THE REGENERATION OF DESICCANTS. IN OTHER CASES, THE PERFORMANCE OF SOLAR DESICCANT COOLING SYSTEMS HAS BEEN OBSERVED.
