The performance of a proposed hyper-gravity dehumidifier.

Number: pap. n. 1496

Author(s) : GU Y., ZHANG X.

Summary

Liquid desiccant air conditioning systems have received more attention in recent years for their lower energy consumption. A counter current-flow hyper-gravity dehumidifier using a rotating packed bed was proposed in this paper. Rotating packed bed (RPB) uses a rotating part to create an artificial centrifugal force which is stronger than gravity. The gas-liquid heat and mass transfer process will
be intensified in the hyper-gravity field. A mathematical model was established in this work. An experimental apparatus is established to verify the mathematical model. The results show that good agreement between the theoretical model and the experimental results was achieved in the present study. The moisture removal rate can be enhanced by increasing the air flow rate, solution flow rate, and rotating speed. And the dehumidification effectiveness can be improved by raising the solution low rate and rotating speed.
