Dehumidifying coil models for energy simulation and design
by Kastl, Brian Keith, M.S., OKLAHOMA STATE UNIVERSITY, 2012, 120 pages; 1513333

Abstract:

This thesis presents a summary and analysis of the development of dehumidifying fin and tube coil models. The goal is to compare and assess the models that are presented in the available literature and evaluate the implementation and performance of some select models. By bringing all of these works into one central location and comparing one author's work to another and experimental data, differences in the models can be evaluated for increased accuracy of calculated heat transfer rates, ease of implementation, and range of applicability. This will facilitate the need to clearly identify assumptions and methods that each author uses and determine if the assumptions are acceptable.
