Regeneration of Liquid Desiccant in Solar Passive Regenerator with Enhanced Performance
Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) - Year 2014, Vol 4, Issue 7
Abstract
Demand for air conditioning is growing, which many times strains the electricity grid. It is desirable to use technologies like liquid desiccant based air conditioning, which can use waste heat or solar thermal energy. Solar regeneration has challenges like numerous components, higher parasitic power and low efficiency. In this work, a solar passive regenerator is developed and used, which has nominal power consumption for its operation. Its efficiency can be improved significantly by enhanced glass cooling as demonstrated in this work. The moisture removal rate could be improved by more than 100% with this method. The effect of concentration and solar insolation on moisture removal rate was also studied in this work.
