Simulación de un sistema de enfriamiento con rueda desecante, híbrido mediante el Software Trnsys 17.

Abstract

In the present work, the analysis and determination of tthe operating conditions of the ECUAMZ laboratory hybrid desiccant wheel cooling system of the Amazon State University (ASU) was carried out, which aim is to cool and dehumidify the laboratory air since it is a herbal, that for the conservation of their species, the must be maintained under certain enviromental conditions. The system has variable operating parameters, due to the design and principle of operation of its components.These variable conditions are: the speed of rotation and the temeperature of regeneration. The desiccant Wheel turns to 5, 10 y 15 RPH, the temperature of 60 y 70°C and the enthalpy wheel turns to 20 y 25 RPM. Obtaining as a result that the system must be work whitn the condition 15RPH-70°C-20RPM. In addition to the implementation of solar collectors for regeneration of the desiccant Wheel it was determinated that the área needed for the solar collector is 4.5 m2 that was obtained through the Simulation in TRNSYS 17. It is concluded that the implementation of the solar collector reduces the electrical consumption of the system, therefore the performance coefficient increases. It is recomended that the system Works form 08:00 until 17:00 since in this period it takes better advantage of solar radiation.
