Desiccant wheels are widely used in buildings to control humidity and reduce energy consumption. A model is presented based on transient coupled heat and mass transfer, to model, design and analyze the effects of geometrical characteristics of a honeycombed rotary desiccant wheel and its performance. Governing equations are solved numerically using finite volume method and the model is validate...

This paper describes the theoretical and experimental investigations of the key components and also the performance analysis of a rotary wheel for using as a solid desiccant dehumidifier and also indirect evaporator cooling system. Solid desiccants have long been used in dehumidification and cooling systems for energy efficiency or reduce electricity. Although many mathematical models on th...

due to climate changes in recent years, in order to attain comfort and convenience, demands for heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (hvac) systems have been increased around the world, which has led to increases in emissions and power. desiccant cooling systems (dcss) are designed and built to reduce moisture and power consumption, create comfortable conditions for people in a building, ...
