To provide a design direction for high efficiency thermoelectric module(TEM) dehumidifiers, the effects of design factors of TEM dehumidifiers on dehumidification energy efficiency and performance were numerically investigated. The design factors considered in this study are the TEM capacity, the performance of heat exchangers on the heating and cooling surfaces of the TEM. The higher capacity of the TEM results the higher dehumidification energy efficiency and performance at some operating voltage. The enhanced performance of the heat exchanger on heating surface increased the dehumidification energy efficiency and performance at all the operating voltage. The enhanced performance of the heat exchanger on cooling surface decreased the dehumidification energy efficiency and performance at all operating voltage.

Recently, the humidity adjustment of indoor air is of great importance in air conditioning system as a applied, in buildings, vehicles, and containers for storage and transport of perishable products. Membrane dehumidification or air is potentially attractive because it offers low capital and operating costs, along with low energy consumption. And membrane dehumidification process attracted the attention of the public instead of the other dehumidification processes, such as adsorption, absorption, and refrigeration cycles and so on. In this study, the prepared hydrophilic inorganic membrane-based dehumidifiers(membrane air dehumidification) examined the performance of dehumidification. The surface-modified inorganic membrane prepared in this study showed high dehumidification efficiency(over 80%). The membrane might be very useful for dehumidification industries.

The hybrid desiccant dehumidifier is an energy-effective system in comparison with the existing desiccant dehumidifier. Its main feature is to use the heat given off by the condenser as the react heat source. Through analysis of the elements for a more efficient design of the hybrid desiccant dehumidifier, it is evident that those energy-saving components do not work individually, but organically influence the efficiency of the equipment. Therefore, the hybrid desiccant dehumidifier may be an important product in the dehumidification industry.

An experimental external external collector type, solar dehumidification dryer was retrofitted with a simple computer-based control system. Solar, solar-dehumidification, and air-drying of 3cm-thick douglas-fir were carried out to investigate the drying-conditions and characteristics of this system, and to analyze the energy efficiencies of each drying met hods in summer. The drying rate of solar-dehumidification was 12%/day, which was about 2 times and 3 times faster than that of solar-and air-drying, respectively. The amount of diurnal temperature fluctuation inside the solar-dryer was greatly reduced and the energy efficiency was enhanced from 25% to 60% by the dehumidifier.

A numerical analysis has been conducted on the dehumidification phenomena of rotary absorptive dehumidifier. Parameters that affect the dehumidification efficiency, such as regeneration temperature, humidity, rotor angular velocity, air flow rate and regeneration section angle are studied and optimum driving conditions are determined from the results, Furthermore three new types of dehumidification method are developed to improve the efficiency They are named MODE 2, 3 and 4, while the present one MODE 1. Cooling zone has been constructed between regeneration and process Bone in MODE 2 and as a result exit temperature of the process air decreases. MODE 3 an improvement of MODE 2, recirculates the cooling air into the regeneration zone and regeneration input as well as exit temperature decreases. In MODE 4, some of tee regeneration air is recirculated and it cuts down the regeneration input. Among them MODE 3, showed the best dehumidification efficiency.

This paper presents an effective cooling dehumidification method to remove odorous gas from food-wastes. The odorous gases, such as Styrene, Ammonia, Hydrogen sulfide and Acetaldehyde, are produced in environments where temperature is $50\sim80^{\circ}C$ and humidity is $40\sim70%$. Under such conditions, experiments are performed reiteratively using experiment equipments. The effect of the cooling dehumidification is measured via measuring instrument, and this research is focused on improving efficiency. The effect of cooling dehumidification using measuring instrument is validated. At $80^{\circ}C$, four type of gases that was mentioned previously showed generally better cooling efficiency with a good result for a component concentration. Among them, hydrogen sulfide gas demonstrated the highest reduction of 50%.

본 연구는 온실에서의 제습장치 이용에 관한 기초자료를 제공할 목적으로 지하수를 냉매로 하는 열교환기 방식의 제습장치를 제작하여 제습성능을 시험하고, 포그냉방시스템을 설치한 온실에 적용하여 제습이 증발냉각효율의 향상에 미치는 영향을 분석하였으며, 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 제습기 성능실험 결과 지하수를 냉매로 이용할 경우 포그냉방시스템을 적용한 온실의 제습은 충분히 가능한 것으로 확인되었다. 냉방 온실의 기온을 $32^{\circ}C$로 설정할 때 냉매인 지하수의 온도가 $15^{\circ}C$에서 18, 21, $24^{\circ}C$로 높아지면 제습량은 각각 $17.7\%,\;35.4\%,\;52.8\%$ 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 지하수 유량을 $75\%,\;50\%$로 줄이면 제습량은 각각 $12.1\%,\; 30.5\%$ 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과로 미루어 볼 때 지하수를 이용한 제습기의 설계에 있어서 이용 가능한 유량과 온도가 중요한 인자임을 알 수 있다. 포그냉방 온실에 제습기를 설치함으로서 뚜렷한 냉방효율 개선을 확인할 수 있었다. 환기율 0.7 회${\cdot}min^{-1}$정도의 자연환기 상태에서 포.1냉방 온실의 환기에 의한 제습율은 53.9%~74.4%였으며, 제습기를 가동할 경우 75.4~95.9까지 높아졌다. 제습기 설계유량과 $18^{\circ}C$의 지하수를 사용할 경우 0.36회 ${\cdot}min^{-1}$ 정도의 환기율에서도 포그시스템 작동으로 인하여 발생하는 분무량을 완전히 제거할 수 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 제습기를 이용하여 자연환기 온실에서의 포그 냉방 효율을 충분히 높힐 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다.

Seasonal semi-greenhouse type solar-drying of 2.5cm-and 5.0cm-thick lumber of Quercus aliena Blume and Quercus variailis Blume was carried out to investigate the possibility of solar-drying of wood and to decide the active solar-drying period in Korea. In the active solar-drying period obtained solar-dehumidification, semi-greenhouse type solar-, air- and kiln-drying of 2.5cm -thick lumber of oaks were carried out to analyze drying-rates. -defects, and -yield in each drying-method and to calculate daily total absorbed solar-radiation the solar dryers. The energy balance equations were set up, considering all the energy requirements, to analyze the heat efficiencies of semi-greenhouse type solar and solar-dehumidification-dryer. In a seasonal drying the drying rate of semi-greenhouse type solar-dryer was highest in summer, and greater in fall, spring, and winter in order. Solar-drying time was 45% in summer to 50% in winter of the air-drying rime, and more serious drying-defects occurred in air-drying than in solar-drying. In the active solar-drying period. April, May, and June, the average drying rate in solar-dehumidification-drying was 1.0%/day and greater than 0.8%/day in semi-greenhouse type solar-drying. In solar-dehumidification-drying the time required to dry lumber to 10% moisture content was less than 60 days, and solar-dehumidification-drying showed the highest drying-yield, 65.01%, than the other drying methods. The daily total absorbed solar radiations were 8.51MJ on the roof collector and 6.22 MJ on the south wall collector. In the energy blance 69.48% of total energy input was lost by heat conduction through walls, roof. and floor 11.68% by heat leakage, 0.33% by heating the internal structures of the solar-dryer and 5.38% by air-venting. Therefore the heat efficiency of semi-greenhouse type solar-dryer 13.13%, was lower than that of solar-dehumidification-dryer, 14.04%. Solar-drying of lumber in Korea showed the possibility to reduce the air-drying-time in every season and the efficiency of solar-dehumidification drying was higher than that of semi-greenhouse type solar-drying.

Semi-greenhouse type solar-dehumidification drying of oak was carried out to investigate the possibility to dry wood using solar energy in Korea. The energy balance equation was set up, considering all the energy requirements, and the solar radiation was calculated to analyze the efficiencies of solar dryer with and without the dehumidifier. The average temperature inside dryer and collector rose up to $52^{\circ}C$ and $70^{\circ}C$, respectively. The average daily total beam, diffuse, and ground-reflected radiations were 7.27MJ, 8.70MJ, and 0.33MJ on the roof and 2.08MJ, 4.84MJ, and 5.37MJ on the south wall collector, respectively. Heat efficiency of solar dryer was 14.04% with dehumidifier and 13.13% without dehumidifier. The energy required to remove 1g of water from wood was 0.0289MJ/g in solar-dehumidification drying and 0.0310 MJ/g in semi-greenhouse type solar drying.
