Résumé

As the global energy landscape pivots towards electrification, the potential of heat pumps to replace conventional fossil-fueled thermal processes is gaining prominence. Among industrial drying methods, convective drying stands out, accounting for 85% of processes yet suffering from significant energy inefficiencies due to the high thermal loads needed for condensing water vapor from air streams. Recognizing this, an energy-efficient alternative with a novel cycle design is proposed as a heat pump system integrated with dual-module water vapor permeable membranes for dehumidification, termed the MemDry system. This innovative system operates in two modes - passive and active - allowing for flexible adaptation to varying environmental conditions. The active modules, with the primary goal in creating a vapor partial pressure differential, augments the dehumidification process when passive methods are insufficient. While preliminary performance estimates and studies exist for similar systems, a detailed and comprehensive model of such a system and specifically its membrane components remain unexplored. This paper presents a multi-functional system model designed to simulate the steady-state operation of the novel system, particularly focusing on its active operating mode. The performance is also compared with a conventional heat pump system and parametric studies are conducted to delineate the optimal conditions for utilizing active or passive membrane modules. The simulation results yielded to a 34% to 54% energy savings, SMER improvement of 55% to 118%, while also resulting in a reduction in the heating capacity of the condenser by 70% to 86%.
