Parametric Studies of a Hybrid Desiccant Cooling System

Abstract

With the drastically change in climatic conditions in recent years, demand for air conditioning is spreading all over the world. Th is causes a primary consumption of energy in high quantity. In order to provide the best indoor air quality and thermal co mfort with min imu m consumption of energy, the hybrid desiccant cooling system is one of the options in our daily life. In this paper, an experimental performance study has been done on the hybrid desiccant cooling system. The effects of various parameters on performance of the system have also been observed. It is found that the influence of the parameters studied on the dehumid ification rate is similar to those reported earlier.
