Performance of an internally cooled and heated desiccant-coated heat and mass exchanger: Effectiveness criteria and design methodology

Internally cooled and heated desiccant-coated heat and mass exchangers (ICHDHMX) driven by low-grade heat are very attractive owing to their energy-saving potential, especially for applications where substantial moisture removal (such as air-conditioning) is a necessity. In this paper, we derive equations for the performance of an ideal...
