Abstract
A finite-difference method is presented for predicting performance of lithium chloride rotor under both desiccant dehumidification and enthalpy exchange mode. The implicit numeric model was based upon analysis of heat and mass transfer between desiccant bed and air streams. Good agreements were observed between experiment data and calculated values. The work in this paper can help the use of LiC1 rotor in air-conditioning engineering.
