✦ Synopsis

Liquid desiccant cooling systems are being explored as an alternative to the conventional vapor compression systems. The dehumidi®er and the regenerator form the heart of these systems. A falling ®lm tubular absorber and a falling ®lm plate regenerator have been studied experimentally. The experimental results have been compared with the predictions from theoretical models. Two wetness factors to account for the improper wetting of exchanger surfaces have been de®ned and estimated. After taking these factors into account, the theoretical models predict the experimental data within 230%.

A finite difference model describing simultaneous heat and mass transfer in a hybrid liquid desiccant cooling system is presented in this paper. This type of system provides cooled and dehumidified air by a combination of a packed absorber tower and a conventional vapour compression system. The mode
