Description: Membrane Dehumidification and Cooling: Fundamentals and Applications presents the state - of - the - art on membrane dehumidifiers highlighting their most recent advancements and providing key insights into global R& D interests. With a strong focus on applications the book offers characterization techniques to evaluate the potential of hygroscopic materials as well as experimental methods to study the dehumidifiers performance. The book begins by highlighting the demerits of conventional cooling systems and then reviews electrically driven alternative cooling solutions. A comparative study between different dehumidification techniques is also given along with sections on fundamental transport mechanisms and thermodynamic modeling. Finally scaling heat transfer and thermodynamic analysis are presented along with a review of hybrid membrane - based air - conditioners. This book is a one - stop resource for recent advancements in membrane dehumidification and cooling applications. It is an essential read for students researchers and engineers interested in thermal engineering heat and mass transfer alternative cooling energy materials and dehumidification.
