This paper reports the development of a novel solar hybrid desiccant cooling system with heat pipe heat exchanger (HPHE). The aim is to achieve higher efficiency to reduce the use of electricity by utilizing the desiccant dehumidification system to remove latent load, while the vapour-compression and heat pipe heat exchanger meet the sensible load. Novelty comes as the heat pipe heat exchanger in the system operates efficiently without external power. Experimental set-up has been built by combining the rotary desiccant wheel, heat pipe heat exchanger with a compressive cooling system. Tests are carried out at typical operative ranges for air-conditioning applications, specifically for high hot and humid locations in Bangi, Malaysia. Acetone is used as refrigerant in the HPHE. Performance of HPHE are tested and proven to have direct impact on Coefficient of performance (COP). The results shows good performance of heat pipe heat exchanger efficiency with average efficiency and capacity of 0.65 and 2kw respectively. It is found that the hybrid system can achieve a higher energy performance in hot humid regions.

Heat pipe heat exchangers (HPHEXs) are widely used in various industries. In this paper, a novel model of a liquid–liquid heat pipe heat exchanger in a countercurrent manner is established by considering the evaporation and condensation thermal resistances inside the heat pipes (HPs). The discrete method is added to the HPHEX model to determine the thermal resistances of the HPs and the temperature change trend of the heat transfer fluid in the HPHEX. The established model is verified by the HPHEX structure and experimental data in the existing literature and demonstrates numerical results that agree with the experimental data to within a 5% error. With the current model, the investigation compares the effectiveness and minimum vapor temperature of the HPHEX with three types of HP diameters, different mass flow rates, and different H* values. For HPs with a diameter of 36 mm, the effectiveness of each is improved by about 0.018 to 0.029 compared to HPs with a diameter of 28 mm. The results show that the current model can predict the temperature change trend of the HPHEX well; in addition, the effects of different structures on the effectiveness and minimum vapor temperature are obtained, which improve the performance of the HPHEX.

Remote heat pipe based heat exchanger cooling systems are becoming increasingly popular in cooling of notebook computers. In such cooling systems, one or more heat pipes transfer the heat from the more populated area to a location with sufficient space allowing the use of a heat exchanger for removal of the heat from the system. In analsysis of such systems, the temperature drop in the condenser section of the heat pipe is assumed negligible due to the nature of the condensation process. However, in testing of various systems, non linear longitudinal temperature drops in the heat pipe in the range of 2 to 15 °C, for different processor power and heat exchanger airflow, have been measured. Such temperature drops could cause higher condenser thermal resistance and result in lower overall heat exchanger performance. In fact the application of the conventional method of estimating the thermal performance, which does not consider such a nonlinear temperature variations, results in inaccurate design of the cooling system and requires unnecessarily higher safety factors to compensate for this inaccuracy. To address the problem, this paper offers a new analytical approach for modeling the heat pipe based heat exchanger performance under various operating conditions. The method can be used with any arbitrary condenser temperature variations. The results of the model show significant increase in heat exchanger thermal resistance when considering a non linear condenser temperature drop. The experimental data also verifies the result of the model with sufficient accuracy and therefore validates the application of this model in estimating the performance of these systems.   This paper was also originally published as part of the Proceedings of the ASME 2005 Pacific Rim Technical Conference and Exhibition on Integration and Packaging of MEMS, NEMS, and Electronic Systems.
