A powerful blower inside the dehumidifier draws air into the cabinet, filters the air and removes moisture, then discharges the dry air into the HVAC system or dedicated area of the home. Inside the cabinet, a sealed refrigeration system removes moisture by moving the air through a series of tubes and fins that are kept colder than the dew point of the incoming air. The dew point is the temperature at which moisture in the air will condense, much like what occurs on the outside of a cold glass on a hot summer day. The condensed moisture drips into the dehumidifier drain pan to a drain tube routed to the nearest floor drain or condensate pump. After the moisture is removed, the air moves through a second coil where it is reheated before being sent back into the home. The air leaving the dehumidifier will be warmer and drier than the air entering the dehumidifier. SETTING THE DESIRED HUMIDITY LEVEL The dehumidifier on-board control will display the humidity setting when not running, and ENERGY SavinGS TIPS displays the measured humidity when running. Energy Savings Tip #1: Adjust the humidity setting to be as high as is comfortable to reduce dehumidifier run time.

    water Article Humidification–Dehumidification (HDH) Desalination System with Air-Cooling Condenser and Cellulose Evaporative Pad Li Xu * , Yan-Ping Chen, Po-Hsien Wu and Bin-Juine Huang Mechanical Engineering Department, National Taiwan University, 708 Engineering Building, No.1 Section 4 Roosevelt Rd., Taipei 106, Taiwan; [email protected] (Y.-P.C.); [email protected] (P.-H.W.); [email protected] (B.-J.H.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 27 October 2019; Accepted: 30 December 2019; Published: 2 January 2020 Abstract: This paper presents a humidification–dehumidification (HDH) desalination system with an air-cooling condenser. Seawater in copper tubes is usually used in a condenser, but it has shown the drawbacks of pipe erosion, high cost of the copper material, etc. If air could be used as the cooling medium, it could not only avoid the above drawbacks but also allow much more flexible structure design of condensers, although the challenge is whether the air-cooing condenser can provide as much cooling capability as water cooling condensers. There is no previous work that uses air as cooling medium in a condenser of a HDH desalination system to the best of our knowledge. In this paper we designed a unique air-cooling condenser that was composed of closely packed hollow polycarbonate (PC) boards. The structure was designed to create large surface area of 13.5 m2 with the volume of only 0.1 m3. The 0.2 mm thin thickness of the material helped to reduce the thermal resistance between the warm humid air and cooling air. A fan was used to suck the ambient air in and out of the condenser as an open system to the environment.

  • Residential Facilities - Dehumidifier Guide
    Residential Facilities - Dehumidifier Guide We have installed a small dehumidifier in your room to help combat higher relative humidity levels which naturally occur when the weather warms up outside. It is important that you use this dehumidifier during air-conditioning season in order to help maintain a comfortable humidity level in your room. The unit is designed to run continuously until the set relative humidity (RH%) is reached in the room. This dehumidifier features a built-in pump which will pump water out through the drain tube from the back – you do not need to touch or empty the water bucket. In order to ensure proper and continuous drainage, the dehumidifier has been tethered to the fan coil unit. Please do not attempt to move the dehumidifier away from the fan coil unit or to disconnect it. Some quick tips on how to get the most out of your in-room dehumidifier: 1. Turn it ON and set RH to 45% when the a/c is on in your room. 2. If you turn if off at night, turn it back on before leaving in the morning. 3. Keep the front, sides, and top clear of any furniture or bedding. Keep the unit upright 4. Report any issues with the unit such as a red light on the display or water appearing on the floor around the unit to our 24-Hour Service Center by calling 301-314-WORK (9675). Below is an explanation of the controls on the front of the dehumidifier: BUCKET FULL LAMP DEFROST LAMP CURRENT TEMPERATURE/HUMIDITY DISPLAY When the dehumidifier is operating, it displays the current If this red light comes on, A yellow light turns on when temperature on the left side and actual humidity on the right side.

  • Research on a Dehumidifier of Liquid Desiccant Type Solar Air- Conditioning System for Full Year-Round Use
    2011 International Conference on Chemistry and Chemical Process IPCBEE vol.10 (2011) © (2011) IACSIT Press, Singapore Research on a Dehumidifier of Liquid Desiccant Type Solar Air- Conditioning System for Full Year-round Use Agung Bakhtiar1, Fatkhur Rokhman2 and Choi Kwang Hwan3 1,2 Graduate School of Dept. of Regeneration and Air Conditioning Engineering, Pukyong National University, South Korea 3 Dept. of Regeneration and Air Conditioning Engineering, Pukyong National University, South Korea Abstract. In full year round term, the air conditioning system should be available to use for winter and summer season. The solar desiccant system is a type of air conditioner that uses solar energy in operation, hence this type have been developed. A dehumidifier is one of the essential components in liquid desiccant air-conditioning system. This paper is an experimental study on a structured packed tower of liquid lithium chloride dehumidifier system with different air velocity and flow rate of liquid desiccant. Experimental apparatus in this experiment is divided into three components; those are load chamber, packed tower and chiller. Load chamber’s volume is 40m3, and packed tower dimension is cubic with length 0.4m occupied with packed column. Desiccant temperature set into 10oC and desiccant concentration is 0.4. The result of this study shows that averagely, the moisture removal rate and the heat transfer rate are influenced both by the air velocity and desiccant flow rate. The result shows that high air velocity will obtain the fast air dehumidification but has low effectiveness and high liquid desiccant will obtain high.

Sakshi Agarwal1, Ar. Aashna Arora2 1,2Facultyof Architecture and Ekistics, Jamia Millia Islamia, New Delhi. ---------------------------------------------------------------------***---------------------------------------------------------------------- Abstract –India receives adequate solar radiation for 300 days, making it to 3,000 hours of sunshine equivalent to over 5,000 trillion kwh. The National Institute of Solar Energy in India determined the country’s solar power potential at about 750 GW, but less than 0.5% has been used till date. Air- conditioning is one of the major consumers of electrical energy. The demand can be expected to increase because of changing working times, increased comfort expectations and global warming. Solar cooling/refrigeration is therefore, the most relevant application for our country, especially in view of the rapidly increasing demand for energy.
