TL;DR: In this article, a novel temperature and humidity independent control system was experimentally investigated, which consisted of a solid desiccant heat pump (SDHP) to handle the latent load and a variable refrigerant flow (VRF) air conditioning system to deal with the sensible load, respectively.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated flow and heat transfer in a vertical open cavity with turbulent mixed convection and found that the secondary upward flow was found near the heated walls, and three two-equation RANS turbulence models, RNG k-e model, L-B Low Re k-E model and SST k-ω model, were used in the numerical simulation with the same boundary conditions as experiments.

TL;DR: In response to recent advances in numerical heat transfer research, the K-8 Committee of Theory and Fundamental Research of the ASME Heat Transfer Division has sponsored a symposium on the subject at the 1990 AIAA/ASME Thermophysics and Heat Transfer Conference in Seattle, Washington as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: In response to recent advances in numerical heat transfer research, the K-8 Committee of Theory and Fundamental Research of the ASME Heat Transfer Division has sponsored a symposium on the subject at the 1990 AIAA/ASME Thermophysics and Heat Transfer Conference in Seattle, Washington. This symposium volume contains the papers presented in three technical sessions. Works dealing with both the methodology and the results of numerical solutions of heat transfer problems are included in this volume. A large number of excellent manuscripts were submitted by researchers from this country and abroad. The papers collected here provide a representative cross section of current contributions to numerical methods in heat transfer.

TL;DR: This work reports on a desiccant-enhanced, direct expansion heat pump based on a water-sorbing heat exchanger with a Desiccant coating that exhibits an ultrahigh COP value of more than 7 without sacrificing any comfort or compactness.
Abstract: Comfortable, efficient, and affordable heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems in buildings are highly desirable due to the demands of energy efficiency and environmental friendliness. Traditional vapor-compression air conditioners exhibit a lower coefficient of performance (COP) (typically 2.8-3.8) owing to the cooling-based dehumidification methods that handle both sensible and latent loads together. Temperature- and humidity-independent control or desiccant systems have been proposed to overcome these challenges; however, the COP of current desiccant systems is quite small and additional heat sources are usually needed. Here, we report on a desiccant-enhanced, direct expansion heat pump based on a water-sorbing heat exchanger with a desiccant coating that exhibits an ultrahigh COP value of more than 7 without sacrificing any comfort or compactness. The pump's efficiency is doubled compared to that of pumps currently used in conventional room air conditioners, which is a revolutionary HVAC breakthrough. Our proposed water-sorbing heat exchanger can independently handle sensible and latent loads at the same time. The desiccants adsorb moisture almost isothermally and can be regenerated by condensation heat. This new approach opens up the possibility of achieving ultrahigh efficiency for a broad range of temperature- and humidity-control applications.
