Abstract
Mass transfer resistance within the adsorbent felt, governed by pore diffusion, limits adsorption efficiency. Current gas and solid side resistance models, which cover both micro- and macro-pore diffusion, are complex due to their numerous parameters. Sometimes, adsorbate transfer in the felt is predominantly controlled by macro-pore diffusion. This paper uses two key assumptions to introduce a simplified macro-pore diffusion model, distilled from a detailed macro–micro pore diffusion model. The model’s accuracy was confirmed by simulating two desiccant wheels, demonstrating its effectiveness in streamlining adsorbent felt analysis and predicting mass transfer dynamics.
