Thermodynamics assessment of desiccant systems with targeted and relaxed humidity control schemes.
Author(s) : JALALZADEH-FAZAR A. A., HODGE B. K., STEELE W. G.
Summary
The performance of desiccant systems for applications requiring stringent control of humidity under varying load conditions is evaluated in this paper. The analyses are performed using a program for a commercially available gas-fired desiccant system. The program predicts the properties of the supply air once the operating conditions are specified. Two scenarios are addressed with respect to the flexibility in humidity control. The first, labeled "targeted" control, pertains to maintaining the humidity level of supply air at a set point within a reasonable control band. The second approach is more flexible in that the controlled variable can assume any value below the set point.
