Abstract
Abstract: Rotary desiccant wheel are used to regulate the relative humidity of air streams. These are commonly integrated into heating ,ventilation and air conditioning unit to reduce the relative humidity of incoming ventilation air. Passive ventilation system are able to deliver adequate ventilation air but cannot control the humidity of the incoming air. To overcome this, the honeycomb water structure of rotary desiccant wheel was redesigned. In addition to this, the temperature of the regeneration air for desorption was lowered. Cooling pads were introduced in between the spokes of the wheel and filled with silica gel particles to form a rotary desiccant wheel. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model of the design was validated using experimental data.
