Desiccant wheels are effective dehumidification devices. The performance of desiccant dehumidification and cooling systems is examined in this paper. Based on a theoretical investigation, six kinds of systems (systems A–F) were analyzed as the system changed from being reversible to being...

Multi-stage desiccant systems are an effective way to improve the performance of desiccant dehumidification systems, which can greatly decrease the required regeneration temperature and make possible the utilization of exhaust heat from the heat pump. The performance of a heat pump-driven...
