Feasibility Study of Air Conditioning System With Separated Dehumidification Process Using Low Temperature Exhaust Heat of Ice Storage
نویسنده
چکیده
The aim of this study is to develop an advanced air conditioning system. The dehumidification process of this system is separated from the cooling process and combined with an ice storage system. We use Wakkanai siliceous shale as a desiccant material. This is a natural mesoporous material produced in the northern area of Hokkaido, Japan. A honeycombed desiccant material made of the shale is cheaper than the one with silica-gel, and it can release vapor easily even by using low-temperature air. It was found that the desiccant process by using the shale honeycomb enables the temperature of regeneration to decrease to 40oC, whereas the desiccant process using silica-gel needs the temperature of 80oC.
