Performance Test on a Solar Powered Two-Stage Solid Wheel Desiccant Air Conditioning System

Article Preview

Abstract:

In the paper, changes of both outlet temperature and relative humidity of solar powered two-stage wheel desiccant air conditioning system are tested with time under the typical Tianjin summer condition. It is found that supply air temperature of the solar driven desiccant cooling system could steady below 21 degrees Celsius, and the relative humidity of it is more than sixty percent in most of time of the actual operation. When operating, the thermal coefficient of performance of the whole air conditioning unit is about 0.5, and the reliability of two-stage wheel desiccant air conditioning system is verified.
