Solar-Powered Dehumidification System with Double Sorbent Wheel
摘要
In order to remove moisture from the air, sorbent is utilized. In most of industrial areas, such as food industry, drug and cold storage industries. Sorbent-based air cooling powered by solar energy is suggested. The solar power is used for heater of 1.5 KW power. It is investigated how solar energy is used to generate power and the effects of airflow rate and increases moisture removal rate (double sorbent wheel). The study’s anticipated findings will point to energy savings. To determine the eliminated moisture as a function of air flow rate at solar noon, an empirical equation is utilized. Additionally, an empirical calculation was employed to determine how well the wheels regenerate and absorb energy. For some applications, sorbent dehumidification systems’ capacity to dry the air to any desired humidity level is advantageous. The moisture removal rate is increased by this TSSD. This technique is limited by the requirement for high-grade heat (about 180°F) to replenish the sorbent. The sorbent wheel’s design clearly reflects customer health, safety and hygiene (rotor). Depending on the project’s characteristics, techniques like sorbent dehumidification is used, depending on the particulars of the project.
