Abstract
Mass transfer resistance within the adsorbent felt, governed by pore diffusion, limits adsorption efficiency. Current gas and solid side resistance models, which cover both micro- and macro-pore diffusion, are complex due to their numerous parameters. Sometimes, adsorbate transfer in the felt is predominantly controlled by macro-pore diffusion. This paper uses two key assumptions to introduce a simplified macro-pore diffusion model, distilled from a detailed macro–micro pore diffusion model. The model’s accuracy was confirmed by simulating two desiccant wheels, demonstrating its effectiveness in streamlining adsorbent felt analysis and predicting mass transfer dynamics.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Refrigeration is published for the International Institute of Refrigeration (IIR) by Elsevier. It is essential reading for all those wishing to keep abreast of research and industrial news in refrigeration, air conditioning and associated fields. This is particularly important in these times of rapid introduction of alternative refrigerants and the emergence of new technology. The journal has published special issues on alternative refrigerants and novel topics in the field of boiling, condensation, heat pumps, food refrigeration, carbon dioxide, ammonia, hydrocarbons, magnetic refrigeration at room temperature, sorptive cooling, phase change materials and slurries, ejector technology, compressors, and solar cooling.
As well as original research papers the International Journal of Refrigeration also includes review articles, papers presented at IIR conferences, short reports and letters describing preliminary results and experimental details, and letters to the Editor on recent areas of discussion and controversy. Other features include forthcoming events, conference reports and book reviews.
Papers are published in either English or French with the IIR news section in both languages.
