Definitions
- the present invention relates to dehumidification systems and methods, and more particularly, to a liquid desiccant regenerator (LDR) for the dehumidification of air in an enclosure, and to a method for dehumidification.
- LDR liquid desiccant regenerator
- US Patent No. 6,266,975 discloses a desiccant (brine) regenerator based on a vapor compressor. The regeneration maintains the desiccant as a concentrate, since effective vapor sinks even in humid conditions.
- US Patent No. 6,463,750 discloses a system for dehumidification of air in an enclosure which includes an air brine heat exchanger for heating cold fresh air introduced into the heat exchanger from the outside and for dehumidifying the air within the enclosure by vapor condensation.
- US Patent No. 4,355,683 discloses an air conditioning system and/or a heating system in combination with a solar pond, wherein it is important to maintain a concentration of salt which increases with the depth of the pond.
- the pond is regenerated, that is, the salt concentration gradient is maintained, by components of the air conditioning system, or by special concentrator towers wherein moisture is removed from brine that is circulated to the towers from the pond.
- US Patent No. 4,205,529 discloses a hybrid air conditioning system that combines a solar powered LiCl dehumidifier with a LiBr absorption chiller.
- the desiccant dehumidifier removes the latent load by absorbing moisture from the air, and the sensible load is removed by the absorption chiller.
- the desiccant dehumidifier is coupled to a regenerator and the desiccant in the regenerator is heated by solar heated hot water to drive the moisture therefrom before being fed back to the dehumidifier.
- the heat of vaporization expended in the desiccant regenerator is recovered and used to partially preheat the driving fluid of the absorption chiller, thus substantially improving the overall COP of the hybrid system.
- WO 03/004937 in the name of the present Applicant discloses an air conditioning system for an environment within an enclosure, the system including an air/water cooling tower in fluid flow communication, via a heat exchanger, with a brine/air heat exchanger, and a brine regenerator in fluid flow communication with the brine/air heat exchanger, the brine/air heat exchanger having an air outlet to the enclosure and an air inlet.
- US Patent No. 7,938,888 in the name of the present Applicant discloses a liquid desiccant regenerator dehumidification system, including a desiccant/air heat exchanger having a first desiccant inlet and a desiccant reservoir.
- the reservoir has a first desiccant outlet, a second desiccant outlet and a second desiccant inlet.
- the first desiccant inlet and the first desiccant outlet are connectable to a heat source, the second desiccant inlet conducts diluted desiccant of the reservoir and the second desiccant outlet conducts concentrated desiccant from the reservoir.
- the second desiccant inlet and the desiccant outlet are connected to a desiccant/desiccant heat exchanger for applying heat to the diluted desiccant flowing into the reservoir.
- the desiccant air heat exchanger and the desiccant reservoir are both exposed to air.
- the system dehumidifies by pumping concentrated liquid desiccant from the desiccant reservoir to the heater and returning heated concentrated liquid desiccant from the heater to the first desiccant inlet at a rate such that the mass flow rate of the desiccant flow into the regenerator is at least twice the mass flow rate of the condensed water.
- the desiccant regenerator exchanges diluted desiccant flowing into the regenerator via the inlet with concentrated desiccant discharging from the regenerator via the first desiccant outlet, and the temperature of the concentrated desiccant is higher than the temperature of the diluted desiccant, so as to introduce heat from the regenerator to a vapor condenser, and the heat elevates the temperature of the diluted desiccant, which functions as a vapor sink.
- a regenerator which serves to remove the absorbed water vapor from the desiccant and return the concentrated desiccant to the reservoir of the dehumidifier.
- concentration of the desiccant since, on the one hand, the more concentrated the desiccant, the greater is the efficiency of the dehumidifier, while on the other hand, the more concentrated the desiccant, the harder it is for the regenerator to remove the absorbed water vapor.
- the desiccant activity in the dehumidifier must be approximately 30%, i.e. the partial vapor pressure of the desiccant in the dehumidifier should be 0.3 and its temperature should be approximately 30°C. Even then it is to be noted that at this activity many desiccants may crystallize, thereby rendering it impossible to remove the required humidity and those desiccants such as LiCl and LiBr which do not crystallize at this activity are expensive.
- the desiccant that is evaporated in the regenerator is more concentrated than the desiccant in the dehumidifier and therefore its partial vapor pressure is less, e.g. 25%.
- To evaporate desiccant at this activity requires high temperature of the desiccant and low temperature of the water in the regenerator thereby rendering it practically impossible to remove the heat from the water.
- One possible solution to avoid crystallization of the desiccant as suggested in US Pat. No. 7,938,888 is to ensure that the mass flow rate of the desiccant flow in the regenerator is at least twice the mass flow rate of the condensed water in the dehumidifier.
- a dehumidifier for dehumidifying air inside an enclosure comprising:
- a desiccant reservoir inside the enclosure having a desiccant inlet for adding concentrated liquid desiccant and a desiccant outlet for removing less concentrated liquid desiccant;
- a pump coupled to the desiccant outlet for pumping liquid desiccant from the reservoir through spray nozzles on to the dehumidifier vapor condenser so as to absorb water vapor from the humid air and heat the liquid desiccant, whereby the air exiting through the air exit is drier than the air entering the air inlet, and
- regenerator coupled to the desiccant inlet and to the desiccant outlet of the desiccant reservoir for removing water from the less concentrated liquid desiccant conveyed out of the desiccant outlet and replenishing concentrated liquid desiccant to the desiccant reservoir via the desiccant inlet; characterized by:
- a cooling element for cooling the liquid desiccant in the dehumidifier and/or the condensing water in the regenerator by absorbing latent heat of condensation of the liquid desiccant in the dehumidifier and/or of condensing water in the regenerator, and a heat sink for recovering said heat of condensation.
- a method for dehumidifying air in an enclosure comprising:
- the dehumidifier according to the invention is not adiabatic (i.e. constant enthalpy) but, to the contrary, is a varying enthalpy system.
- the invention cools the desiccant in the dehumidifier since cooling the desiccant to e.g. 15°C where the air in the enclosure is 20°C makes it is possible for the desiccant to have an activity of 60% in the dehumidifier.
- the activity of the desiccant in the regenerator will then be approximately 55%, which allows the temperature of desiccant in the regenerator to be only 60°C while the temperature of the water can be as low as 40°C, thus making it possible to remove the heat from the water.
- this permits all common desiccants such as MgCl and CaCl to be used, which are much less expensive than LiCl and LiBr without the risk of crystallization.
- Figs. 1 to 5 are schematic views of a dehumidifier according to different embodiments of the present invention.
- Fig. 6 is a psychometric chart useful for explaining operation of the dehumidifier.
- Fig. 1 shows schematically a dehumidifier 10 for dehumidifying air inside an enclosure 12, comprising a desiccant reservoir 14 inside the enclosure having a desiccant inlet 16 for adding more concentrated liquid desiccant and a desiccant outlet 18 for removing less concentrated liquid desiccant. Also provided within the enclosure 12 are an air inlet 20 downstream of a dehumidifier vapor condenser 22 for receiving humid air and an air exit 24 upstream of the dehumidifier vapor condenser 22 for releasing dry air into the enclosure 12.
- a pump 26 is coupled to the desiccant outlet 18 for pumping liquid desiccant from the desiccant reservoir 14 through spray nozzles 28 on to the dehumidifier vapor condenser 22 so as to absorb water vapor from the humid air. In doing so the water vapor gives up latent heat, which heats the liquid desiccant, whereby the air exiting through the air exit 24 is drier than the air entering the air inlet 20.
- a regenerator 30 is coupled to the desiccant inlet 16 and to the desiccant outlet 18 of the desiccant reservoir 14 for removing water from the less concentrated liquid desiccant conveyed out of the desiccant outlet 18 and replenishing concentrated liquid desiccant to the desiccant reservoir 14 via the desiccant inlet 16.
- a cooling element 32 is disposed between the desiccant outlet 18 and the dehumidifier vapor condenser 22 for cooling the liquid desiccant prior to its reaching the dehumidifier the dehumidifier vapor condenser 22 by absorbing latent heat of condensation of the liquid desiccant thereby reducing the temperature of the liquid desiccant in the dehumidifier vapor condenser 22.
- the latent heat of condensation is recovered by a heat sink 34 coupled to the cooling element 32.
- the cooling element 32 is constituted by an evaporator 36 connected in series with a compressor 38, which together function as a heat exchanger that removes heat from the liquid desiccant to a refrigerant, which may be a chlorofluorocarbon such FreonTM or to a hydrofluorocarbon and then conveys the removed heat from the refrigerant to a condenser 40 in series with the compressor 38.
- a refrigerant which may be a chlorofluorocarbon such FreonTM or to a hydrofluorocarbon and then conveys the removed heat from the refrigerant to a condenser 40 in series with the compressor 38.
- Freon is a trademark of E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company.
- An expansion valve 42 controls the amount of refrigerant flow into the evaporator 36 thereby controlling the superheating at the outlet of the evaporator 36.
- the condenser 40 is shown within the enclosure it may equally well be outside the enclosure.
- regenerator 30 As noted above, the function of the regenerator 30 is to remove water from the less concentrated liquid desiccant and replenish concentrated liquid desiccant to the desiccant reservoir 14.
- the exact construction of the regenerator 30 is not a feature of the invention as long is it is capable of realizing this function.
- the regenerator 30 may be constructed in a similar manner to that employed in our US Patent No. 7,938,888 as will now be described with reference to Fig. 1.
- the regenerator 30 is shown as a closed loop dual stage evaporator comprising an interconnected evaporator 44a and condenser 44b each including a respective reservoir 46a, 46b, a respective air inlet 48 a, 48b and a respective air outlet 50a, 50b.
- the reservoir 46a contains desiccant while the reservoir 46b contains water.
- the air outlet 50a of the evaporator 44a is coupled to the air inlet 48b of the condenser 44b to form a closed loop while the air outlet 50b of the condenser 44b is coupled to the inlet 48a of the evaporator 44a also to form a closed loop. Diluted desiccant in the reservoir 14 at ambient temperature, e.g.
- the desiccant reservoir 46a of the regenerator 30 is preferably coupled to the desiccant reservoir 14 of the dehumidifier 10 via a desiccant/ desiccant heat exchanger 52, which heats the diluted desiccant flowing from the dehumidifier 10 to the regenerator 30 and cools the concentrated desiccant flowing from the regenerator 30 back to the dehumidifier 10.
- a desiccant/air heat exchanger 54 coupled to a heater 56 has a desiccant inlet 58 coupled to the desiccant reservoir 46a.
- a pump 60 conveys desiccant from the desiccant reservoir 46a to the desiccant/air heat exchanger 54, which conveys heated diluted desiccant via a desiccant outlet 62 through spray nozzles 64a on to the evaporator 44a.
- Air entering the air inlet 48a is heated on contact with the evaporator 44a and is thereby 5 able to hold more water, which it absorbs from the diluted desiccant, thereby increasing its concentration.
- the concentrated desiccant is returned to the reservoir 14 of the dehumidifier 10 via the desiccant/desiccant heat exchanger 52. Having absorbed heat from the diluted desiccant, the air exiting from the air outlet 0a of the evaporator 44a is now both hotter and wetter than the air entering the air inlet 48a.
- Fig 2 shows a second embodiment where the cooling element 32 comprises a heat exchanger 70 which removes heat from the desiccant in the dehumidifier vapor condenser 22 and conveys the removed heat to cold water 72 in a reservoir, for example, an aquifer or swimming pool 74.
- the cold water at a temperature of around
- 20 5°C is pumped to the heat exchanger 70 by a pump 76 and may further be transmitted to the vapor condenser 44b in the regenerator 30 where the cold water is further heated and returned to the aquifer or swimming pool 74 as warm water 78 at a temperature of around 35°C for other uses such as space heating and the like.
- Fig. 3 shows a third embodiment of a hybrid system where the cooling element
- a heat exchanger comprising an evaporator 36 in series with a compressor 38 is connected between the reservoir 14 of the dehumidifier 10 and the reservoir 46a of the regenerator 30, and removes heat from the liquid desiccant to a refrigerant and then conveys the removed heat from the refrigerant to a condenser 40 in series with the compressor 38.
- An expansion valve 42 controls the amount of refrigerant flow into the evaporator 36 thereby controlling the superheating at the outlet of the evaporator 36.
- the condenser 40 is shown within the enclosure 12 it may equally well be outside the enclosure.
- the condenser 40 is connected between the reservoir 46a evaporator 44a of the regenerator 30.
- the evaporator 36 cools the desiccant in the dehumidifier vapor condenser 22 by removing heat which is then conveyed to the condenser and transferred to the desiccant in the regenerator 30.
- the heat sink 34 is realized by an aquifer or swimming pool 74.
- Cold water 72 from the aquifer or swimming pool 74 is directed on to the condenser 44b so as to absorb moisture from the hot moist air reaching the air inlet 48b of the condenser 44b, thereby making the air drier.
- the condensed water is warmed by the latent heat of condensation and flows into the reservoir 46b from where it is pumped by a pump 76 as hot water 78 back to the aquifer or swimming pool 74.
- the cold water 72 and the hot water 78 may be stored in separate tanks.
- the cooling element 32 cools liquid desiccant in the dehumidifier vapor condenser 22, since the colder the liquid desiccant in the dehumidifier 22, the more effectively it is able to absorb water vapor from the air in the enclosure 12.
- Fig. 4 shows a fourth embodiment where the cooling element 32 comprises an evaporator 36 connected between the reservoir 46b and the condenser 44b in the regenerator 30 for removing heat from the liquid desiccant in the condenser 44b.
- the heat thus removed is conveyed by a compressor 38 to a condenser 40 connected between the reservoir 46a and the evaporator 44a in the regenerator 30.
- Heat is removed from the condensed water and fed to the desiccant evaporator 44a. In this way the water at the regenerator condenser is kept cold which enhances the regenerator effect.
- an additional heat pump may be coupled to the dehumidifier 10 similar to the arrangement shown in Fig. 1 and comprising an evaporator for removing heat from the desiccant vapor condenser 22 and a condenser for conveying the removed heat to the air in the enclosure 12.
- Fig. 5 shows a fifth embodiment where the heat sink 34 is realized by an aquifer or swimming pool 74.
- Cold water 72 from the aquifer or swimming pool 74 is directed on to the condenser 44b so as to absorb moisture from the hot moist air reaching the air inlet 48b of the condenser 44b, thereby making the air drier.
- the air is condensed by the condenser 44b and the cold condensed water flows into the reservoir 46b from where it is pumped by a pump 76 as hot water 78 back to the aquifer or swimming pool 74.
- a pump 76 as hot water 78 back to the aquifer or swimming pool 74.
- Liquid desiccant is characterized by vapor pressure, which is low, compared with the vapor pressure of water at the same temperature.
- the ratio of desiccant vapor pressure to water pressure at the same temperature is defined as the "activity" a.
- the desiccant will follow the relative humidity curve on the psychometric chart. For example, for lithium chloride (LiCl) having a salt concentration of 40% the activity ratio is 20%, while at a salt concentration of 30% the activity is about 40%.
- the desiccant collects 2 gram water for each kg of air that is introduced into the dehumidifier. Applying this to the dehumidifier 10 in Fig. 1, to maintain the concentration at steady state, the regenerator 30 must remove water from the desiccant at the same rate that the cold desiccant at the dehumidifier vapor condenser 22 shown in Fig. 1 collects the water vapor.
- low activity desiccant requires a high desiccant temperature at the evaporator 36 Fig. 1 which evaporates "dry steam" at high temperature and low vapor pressure.
- cold water should be introduced from the heat sink 34 to the water condenser 44b.
- the heat sink 34 to the water condenser 44b.
- the improvement results from cooling the desiccant in the dehumidifier 10 by the cooling element 32 and conveying the heat removed from the desiccant either to the air or for other needs.
- the desiccant interface will follow the curve of relative humidity of 50% while being cooled from 22°C to 17°C by the evaporator 36 in Fig. 1 or the evaporator 70 in Fig. 2.
- the air will follow the isothermal line from vapor content of 12 gram to 8.5g which reduces the humidity by 3.5 gram kg. as compared with a maximum 2 gram depletion in the adiabatic dehumidifier.
- the desiccant is heated by the air vapor condenser 44b from 17°C to 22°C.
- the vapor content depletion of air exiting the varying enthalpy dehumidifier according to the invention is therefore 3.5 gram/kg since air enters at 12 gram/kg and exits at 8.5 gram/kg as compared with vapor content depletion of 2 gram/kg in the adiabatic dehumidifier.
- the varying enthalpy dehumidifier according to the invention is more effective in removing water vapor from the air than the adiabatic dehumidifier.
- the air temperature is elevated in the adiabatic dehumidifier from 20°C to 25°C i.e. by 5°C as compared with constant temperature in this example or only small temperature variation of air in the varying enthalpy dehumidifier according to the invention.
- the adiabatic dehumidifier all the latent heat is converted to air heating, a large portion of the latent heat in the varying enthalpy dehumidifier is used to heat the cold desiccant.
- the relationship between the diluted desiccant flowing into the regenerator and the concentrated desiccant flowing out of the regenerator could be controlled by a circulating pump disposed in the system to propel the desiccant into the regenerator.
- the Reynolds number of air inside the filling substance used in the heat exchanger should preferably be smaller than 2000.
