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.

In this paper, the hybrid dehumidification system using thermoelectric device is based on the idea of utilizing waste heat from the heat dissipation side of thermoelectric device as a heat source to regenerate chemical desiccant. We would like to apply this system to spaces required dehumidification due to continuous moisture generation or local high humidity in the houses. And, we want to confirm the possibility of developing the hybrid dehumidification system that combines passive dehumidification using chemical desiccant with active dehumidification using thermoelectric device.

The hybrid liquid desiccant air conditioning system has been in use for many years, primarily in industrial process applications requiring dehumidification and humidity control. In this study, the hybrid dehumidifier has been designed to study the dehumidification characteristic of the aqueous triethylene glycol (TEG) solution. The experimental results show energy efficient characteristics of hybrid liquid desiccant air conditioning system compared with the refrigeration system in terms of energy use, the difference of pressure loss between hybrid liquid desiccant air conditioning system and refrigeration system. Data obtained are useful for design guidance and performance analysis of the hybrid air conditioning system.

There are three types of dehumidification systems : refrigeration dehumidification method, desiccant dehumidification method and hybrid dehumidification method. The first method involves removing moisture by condensation below the dew point, the second method involves absorption by a desiccant material and the last is an integration method. However, the refrigeration dehumidification system consumes too much power and controlling the humidity ratio is difficult. The desiccant dehumidification system uses less power but it has problems of environmental pollution. The hybrid dehumidification system has the disadvantage of a high initial cost. On the other hand, the energy consumption of the membrane based dehumidification system is lower than for the refrigeration dehumidification system. Also, it is an environmentally friendly technology. In this study, the performance parameters are evaluated for the dehumidification system using a hollow fiber membrane. Available area, duct side dry-bulb temperature, sweep gas flux (flow rate) and LMPD (Log Mean Pressure Difference) were used as the performance parameters.

Several desiccant cooling systems have been developed in terms of cost and performance. In this study a fin-tube exchanger has been used for liquid desiccant dehumidification system. This dehumidifier has been designed to study the absorption characteristic of the aqueous triethylene glycol(TEG) solution which has the flow range from 20 to 50 LPM. The dehumidifier performance characteristics of working factor variables such as inlet solution flow rate, air flow rate, solution concentration and brine temperature have been analyzed. This dehumidifier has the ability to provide running while saving the latent heat load of total energy. The result of this experiment can provide useful data for hybrid air conditioning system.

This study investigates the simultanceous heat and mass transfer between a falling desiccant film and air in cross flow at the interface. The application of this work is the optimization of falling film evaporators for use in potential hybrid air conditioning systems. The specific geometry considered is liquid TEG films falling along the vertical cooled surfaces of a channel with air in cross flow. The equations to describe the coupled heat and mass transfer between a falling desiccant film and air in cross flow for a falling film evaporator have been presented and solved numerically. The effects of important design and operating variables on the evaporator performance predicted by the parametric numerical analysis and suggestions for performance improvements of the evaporator are presented.

Liquid desiccant dehumidification systems have the ability to provide efficient humidity and temperature control while saving the electrical energy requirement for air conditioning as compared to a conventional system. The dehumidifier and the regenerator form the heart of this system. The latent part of the cooling load is overcome using liquid desiccant. The model regenerator has been designed to study the absorption characteristic of the aqueous triethylene glycol (TEG) solution which is in the flow range from 20 to 50 LPM. Also, this system designed that was able to change the height of the regenerator and dehumidifier. Because the effect of performance have different result according the height. The effect of performance factors of the regenerator with inlet solution flow rate, air flow rate, solution concentration, solution temperature, brine temperature, air temperature and inlet air relative humidity have been analyzed. Data obtained are useful for design guidance and performance analysis of the hybrid air conditioning system.

For the energy's effective utilization, the mixed humidifier has been developed and popularized by combining the cooling dehumidifier with the desiccant humidifier properly. This has contributed in many ways to the industry. Hybrid Desiccant Dehumidifier that would be shown in this study could be indispensible in site due to the reduced equipment, with more than 50% reduction in energy.

최근에 국내외 에너지 이용 효율성 증대 문제, CFCs등으로 인한 오존층 파괴문제, $CO_2$ 등으로 인한 지구온난화 문제, 실내공기질(IAQ)과 관련된 건물 환기량 증대요구로 인한 건물용 공조시스템(HVAC)의 설계변경 문제 등으로 인해 다양한 종류의 대체 냉방기기가 연구되어 오고 있다. 현재 미국에서는 ASHRAE Standard 62-1989에 의해 실내거주자의 필요한 IAQ와 쾌적함을 유지하기 위해 환기량을 기존의 경우보다 약 3배 이상이 되도록 권장하고 있고 또한 대다수의 미국 주 정부에서 건물설계에 관련된 조례로 ASHRAE Standard 62-1989를 적용하고 있다. 따라서 빌딩공조 설비관계자들은 늘어난 환기 요구량에 따라 잠열냉방용량이 크게 증대되므로 이를 처리하기 위한 새로운 냉방공조기기 시스템기술에 대해 관심이 증대하고 있다. 이에 따라 건조제를 x이용한 냉방 및 제습 시스템이 대체 냉방시스템 또는 기존의 냉방 시스템과 더불어 잠열부하를 처리하는 복합 시스템으로 최근에 다시 상당한 주목을 받고 있다.
