Effects of utilizing seawater as a cooling source system in a commercial complex

This paper treats energy and cost performance of a cooling source system with indirect seawater utilization for air conditioning in a commercial complex. Seawater utilization has merits as a cooling source, because seawater temperature is lower than outdoor air in summer and it is cost effective because there is no water monetary cost. Actual operating data has been measured for about 2 years and the chiller and system co-efficient of performance (COP) have indicated about 4.77 and 2.93, respectively, even in summer season and the mean efficiency of the thermal storage system was about 89.9% taking into account heat loss of pumps. In addition, we have constructed simulation models for cooling tower systems, air cooling chiller systems and direct seawater utilization systems then compared them to this system. The electric power consumption of the indirect seawater utilization system was almost the same as the other systems except the air cooling chiller system, because using lower seawater temperature made the chiller efficiency higher. In conclusion, our results showed the indirect seawater utilization system was able to improve the system COP compared to air cooling chiller system, and cancel water consumption compared with the cooling tower system, and cut down an initial and maintenance costs compared with the direct seawater utilization system.

New approaches to space conditioning of buildings are required to resolve economic, environmental, and regulatory issues. One of the alternative systems that is brought to agenda is the desiccant cooling systems, which may provide important advantages in solving air conditioning problems. This study deals with the performance analysis and evaluation of a novel desiccant cooling system using exergy analysis method.

Investigation of a hybrid system of nocturnal radiative cooling and direct evaporative cooling

In this paper, the results of a study on a hybrid system of nocturnal radiative cooling, cooling coil, and direct evaporative cooling in Tehran have been discussed. During a night, the nocturnal radiative cooling provides required chilled water for a cooling coil unit. The cold water is stored in a storage tank. During eight working hours of the next day, hot outdoor air is pre-cooled by means of the cooling coil unit and then it enters a direct evaporative cooling unit. In this period, temperature variation of the conditioned air is investigated. This hybrid system complements direct evaporative cooling as if it consumes low energy to provide cold water and is able to fulfill the comfort condition whereas direct evaporative alone is not able to provide summer comfort condition. The results obtained demonstrate that overall effectiveness of hybrid system is more than 100%. Thus, this environmentally clean and energy efficient system can be considered as an alternative to the mechanical vapor compression systems.     

A two-stage system of nocturnal radiative and indirect evaporative cooling for conditions in Tehran

In this paper, the results of an investigation on a two-stage cooling system have been studied. This system consists of a nocturnal radiative unit, a cooling coil, and an indirect evaporative cooler. During the night in summer, requisite chilled water for a cooling coil unit is provided by nocturnal radiative cooling and is stored in a storage tank. During the next day, the water in the tank provides chilled water for the cooling coil unit and hot outdoor air passes through two-stages: the cooling coil unit and an indirect evaporative cooler. Three sources provide secondary air for the indirect evaporative cooler. The sources are outdoor air, the air leaving from the cooling coil, and the air leaving from the indirect stage (regenerative). The investigation has been conducted in weather conditions in the city Tehran. The results obtained demonstrate that the first stage of the system increases the effectiveness of the indirect evaporative cooler. Also, the regenerative model provides the best comfort conditions. Therefore, this environmentally friendly and energy-efficient system can be considered as an alternative to the mechanical vapor compression systems.

In situ performance of independent humidity control air-conditioning system driven by heat pumps

A liquid desiccant based independent humidity control (IHC) air-conditioning system driven by heat pumps is presented in this paper. The system consists of a liquid desiccant fresh air processor and a high-temperature chilled water system. The operating principles of the fresh air processor and the whole system are presented in detail. Based on the in situ system installed in an ecological building of Shanghai Research Institute of Building Sciences (SRIBS), a performance investigation was performed in summer, 2007. The measurement results show that (1) the indoor temperature and humidity both are in the specified range; (2) the supply water temperature of the high-temperature refrigerator is higher than the corresponding indoor air dew point temperature, so no condensed water would be formed on the fan-coil unit (FCU) surface; and (3) the average coefficients of performances (COPs) of the fresh air processor and the high-temperature refrigerator are 6.24 and 4.38, respectively, and the average COP of the whole IHC system is 5.28.     

Experimental study on dehumidifier and regenerator of liquid desiccant cooling air conditioning system

A new type of air conditioning system, the liquid desiccant evaporation cooling air conditioning system (LDCS) is introduced in this paper. Desiccant evaporation cooling technology is environmental friendly and can be used to condition the indoor environment of buildings. Unlike conventional air conditioning systems, the system can be driven by low-grade heat sources such as solar energy and industrial waste heat with temperatures between 60 and 80 °C. In this paper, a LDCS, as well as a packed tower for the regenerator and dehumidifier is described. The effects of heating source temperature, air temperature and humidity, desiccant solution temperature and desiccant solution concentration on the rates of dehumidification and regeneration are discussed. Based on the experimental results, mass transfer coefficients of the regeneration process were experimentally obtained. The results showed that the mean mass transfer coefficient of the packing regenerator was 4 g/(m² s). In the experiments of dehumidification, it was found that there was maximal tower efficiency with the suitable inlet humidity of the indoor air. The effective curves of heating temperature on the outlet parameters of the regenerator were obtained. The relationships of regeneration mass transfer coefficient as a function of heating temperature and desiccant concentration are introduced.

Experiences with a gas driven,desiccant assisted air conditioning system with geothermal energy for an office building

Thermal driven desiccant assisted air conditioning systems make use of waste heat to dehumidify humid outside air in a desiccant wheel. Within the scope of a research project, an investigation of a desiccant assisted air conditioning system was carried out, and a demonstration plant was built in an office building in Hamburg, Germany. The HVAC system consists of a small CHP-plant, a desiccant assisted ventilation system and an earth energy system (borehole heat exchangers) for cooling instead of an electric driven compression chiller. The radiant floor heating system of the building is used for cooling. In this paper, measurement results and investigations of performance, energy demand and operating costs will be presented. It was found that considerable primary energy savings can be achieved (70%) using desiccant air conditioning with borehole heat exchangers. But even if electric chiller is used, savings of 30% in primary energy can be accomplished. Starting costs for the demonstration plant were not higher than for a conventional system, but running costs could be reduced drastically.     

New type of fresh air processor with liquid desiccant total heat recovery

A liquid desiccant total heat exchanger and small capacity refrigeration cycle combined fresh air processor is proposed here in this paper, in order to improve indoor air quality and decrease the energy consumption of the air-conditioning system. Operating principles of both the total heat recovery device and fresh air processor using liquid desiccant are presented in details. Experimental tests of the fresh air processor installed in a hospital show that energy efficiency ratio (EER) is around 6.3–7.3 in the summer experimental conditions and 4.7–5.0 in the winter experimental conditions. Hour-by-hour simulation, which is based on the climate data in Beijing, shows that the average EER is 5.3 and 4.3 in summer and winter period, respectively. Liquid desiccant has the potential to remove a number of pollutants, avoiding cross contamination. Furthermore, in summer fresh air is dehumidified by contacting liquid desiccant instead of 7 °C chilled water, which avoids wet surfaces in the air-conditioning system and much higher indoor air quality can be achieved.
