Analytical Investigation of a Novel System for Combined Dew Point Cooling and Water Recovery

This paper presents the analytical investigation of a novel system for combined Dew Point Cooling and Water Recovery (DPC-WR system). The operating principle presented is to utilize dew point cooling phenomenon implemented in two stages order obtain both air water recovery. performance described by different indicators, including coefficient (COP), gained output ratio (GOR), energy utilization factor (EUF), specific consumption (SEC) daily production (SDWP). indicators are calculated various climatic zones using validated model based on convective heat transfer coefficient. By utilizing phenomenon, it possible minimize electric from external sources, which results COP GOR values being an magnitude higher than other recovery technologies. EUF value DPC-WR ranges 0.76 0.96, with average 0.90. SEC 0.5 2.0 kWh/m3 SDWP 100 600 L/day/(kg/s). In addition, modular, i.e., can be multiplied as needed achieve required or capacity.
