Abstract:Desiccant cooling systems are widely recognized as an alternative technology to vapor compression cooling. Desiccant systems are attractive for air conditioning applications due to the possible use of low-grade heat and green refrigerants in their operation. In such systems, air dehumidification is achieved using bed compacted with desiccant materials such as silica gel, activated alumina, and zeolite. Desiccant systems, on the other hand, present a low coefficient of performance due to the poor heat and mass … Show more
