For the analysis of humid air, the humidity ratio of the inlet air can be determined from the EES database using the given inlet temperature, pressure, and RH. The regeneration thermal power for the air dehumidification can be determined using [19]: (7) Q regen = V proc ∆ h vs ω air, in − ω air, out The latent heat of vaporization of water ∆h vs …
As shown in Fig. 1 (b) and (c), a nighttime cold energy storage system (CESS) has an additional cold energy storage tank connected to chillers, unlike the conventional air conditioning system. During the off-peak period, the chiller charges the phase change material (PCM)-based CES tank, and cold energy is released during the …

Home Cooling Systems. Air Conditioning. Three-quarters of all homes in the United States have air conditioners. Air conditioners use about 6% of all the electricity produced in the United States, at an annual cost of about $29 billion to homeowners. As a result, roughly 117 million metric tons of carbon dioxide are released into the air each year.
