Obiettivo

The general objective of the project is to investigate the thermodynamic behaviour of solar desiccant air-conditioning systems for Mediterranean climates. The aim is to draw a clear scenario of design rules and optimised systems configurations according to specific constrains such as climate, end use load. The development and the validation of improved dehumidifier mathematical model is carried out through the following tasks:- Experimental work on desiccant material samples- Mathematical model development- Model validation: through experimental data from test facility Than modelling activity, followed by validation, at system level is carried out. The simulation of different configurations under different boundary conditions is performed. The result analysis leads to design rules and optimised configurations identification. The applicant will have the possibility to broaden his knowledge on solar desiccant cooling systems byte integration of experimental work and computer based modelling and simulation activities. For the applicant, the results of the study will provide the basis for future cooperation in research projects with public bodies and research institutions in southern Europe by supplying a specific knowledge on the potential of such technologies in Mediterranean countries. For the host institution instead the work will provide an excellent premise for acquisition of future projects with private industries in countries in the Mediterranean.
