A small domestic desiccant dehumidifier is modelled using effectiveness models for a desiccant wheel and a wet-air condenser. The desiccant wheel and condenser models are used to compose a system model in the form of a set of simultaneous linear algebraic equations, which is solved by Gauss method. The system model is used to simulate the behaviour of a dehumidifier with a 1kW electric air heater. It is found that the maximu COP is about 0.5 and dehumidification capacity is 18kg/day when the ratio of dehumidification area is 0.7. The optimum wheel thickness and face velocity are found 100mm and 1.5m/s, respectively.

When the injection molding system molds some plastic products, defective product rate will be increased if plastic materials have some excessive moisture content. Therefore, it is very important to control the dehumidification and drying of plastic material. Since the moisture content of the plastic material may change from time to time depending on the material and the molding process, it is necessary to observe the change in real time and maintain a constant moisture content. To solve these problems, I proposed a smart factory system model for plastic molding in this paper. In addition, I designed the interface module to be installed in the dehumidifying dryer which is the core of this process. In addition to this, performance tests were conducted to check the effectiveness and the results were verified as valid.
