Summary

This article is the Spanish translation of an article presented at the 12th International Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Conference, Purdue University, USA (see the Bulletin of the IIR, reference 2009-1746). The advantage of separating sensible and latent cooling (SSLC) by using separate devices is to save energy by raising the evaporating temperature of the sensible cooling process. The latent cooling portion can be met either by vapour compression cycles or desiccant devices. The later can be achieved by using waste heat or other heat sources. The study presented here focuses on using two vapour compression cycles, one for sensible and one for latent cooling. Pertinent characteristics of the SSLC system are discussed, including: (1) the coincident of the maximum energy savings and the highest air flow rate through the system; (2) energy saving potential under varying sensible cycle outlet air temperatures; and (3) energy savings potential under varying ambient conditions.
