Analysis of Energy Consumption and Mode of Energy Saving of Rotary Wheel

Abstract:

A model of rotary wheel combined with heat pump regeneration was presented and an experimental investigation on it was also carried out. Five normal kinds of dehumidification efficiency evaluation standard were introduced in view of the existing various dehumidifying method while the current energy efficiency evaluation indices were analyzed. SMER which defines the dehumidification quantity of unit energy consumption and dehumidification system energy efficiency were introduced and used to compare energy consumption of rotary wheel with or without heat pump. The comparative analysis showed that the system of rotary wheel combined with heat pump regeneration could significantly improve SMER and dehumidification system energy efficiency of rotary wheel.
