Optimization of Liquid Desiccant Cooling Cycle

This paper presents the optimization process of liquid desiccant cooling cycle using LiCl aqueous solution as a working fluid. Operating conditions and design factors for heat exchangers were optimized by response surface method. As a result, we obtained the 7.297 kW of cooling capacity and 0.788 of COP at optimized condition. Effect of $dT_{hw}$ on system performances was also examined. As $dT_{hw}$ increases, the cooling capacity increases and COP decreases.
