Moisture transport is one of the major challenges in desiccant dehumidification. The transfer of moisture basically involves transfer of heat between moist air and desiccant particles as well as the mass transferal of moisture between moist air and desiccant particles. Type of desiccant dehumidification analysis is heating with dehumidification. Warmth move between sodden air and desiccants likewise gains consideration since temperature appropriation significantly influences the mass exchange execution through desiccant isotherms. The warmth and mass exchange between a clammy air stream and desiccant particles is dissected. Surface dissemination is noticed to overwhelm mass exchange within the silica gel particles. Here in this paper, we have compared the three diffusion coefficients Ordinary, Knudson and surface diffusion both for packed bed system and rotary desiccant system. Also, two models of move coefficients are introduced here and analyzed. Pseudo gas side controlled model usages an observational gas side mass exchange coefficient to represent dissemination opposition on strong side. Solid side resistance model settles the dissemination condition and is the finest exact as far as move coefficients. Notwithstanding, it makes examination considerably more clear.
In recent decades, desiccant dehumidification has been given much interest in the air conditioning industry area. Compared to the conventional vapour compression air conditioning system, desiccant dehumidification has various advantages, including separate humidity and temperature control. In this paper, the analysis of the Rotary Solid Desiccant Wheel System has been performed. Here, we have studied three diffusion coefficients: Ordinary, Knudsen and Surface diffusion coefficients for Rotary Solid Desiccant Wheel System. Also, the analysis has been performed for three different solid desiccant materials: Silica Gel, Molecular Sieve and Activated Alumina to incorporate and to study the effect of pore size on moisture transport and to examine the impact of Tortuosity factor on moisture transport phenomenon. This analysis can correctly select the best desiccant material suitable for the desiccant dehumidification industry.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
