Summary

A design/operation improvement method of low dew point air supply system using a desiccant rotor was studied by numerical simulation. First, the angular distributions of air humidity and temperature developed at each outlet of a desiccant rotor were carefully measured and discussed for the help in construction of mathematical model and verification of the simulation results. Next, a modified simulation model was developed taking the physical characteristics of the rotor especially at the target low humidity region into account. As a result, good agreement between experimental and calculated values was obtained. Then, influences of the principal operating parameters on the process performance were investigated by means of the numerical simulation and the relations between principal operating parameters were summarized in some diagrams. These diagrams can be applied for optimization of the system operation at part load conditions.
