Experimental performance of a liquid desiccant dehumidification system under tropical climates

TL;DR: In this paper, a double channelled exchanger for air to liquid desiccant heat and mass transfer is proposed to provide a large surface area for air/desiccant contact and reduce the carryover as direct contact between desiccants and air is minimized unlike spray towers, packed bed and falling film designs.
