Abstract
The purpose of this study is to analyse the proposed liquid desiccant absorber with low solution flow rate compared with the conventional packbed-type absorber. The total exergy destruction and exergy efficiency were estimated to assess the system performance. To determine the total exergy destruction and exergy efficiency, it was predicted that the specific thermal and chemical exergy in the inlet and outlet both air and solution side of the absorber. The results indicated that the average total thermal and chemical exergy destruction is 0.054 kW and 0.080 kW in the proposed system while it is 0.292 kW and 0.093 kW in the conventional absorber. The exergy efficiency is 0.573 and 0.114 on average in the proposed and conventional absorber, respectively.
