An experimental investigation of a fluidized bed with multiple cooling pipes was conducted to study adsorption characteristics of a new organic sorbent desiccant material (HU300P) for a new air conditioning system. The mass ratio of the present sorbent desiccant powder type is from 1.3 to 2.3 times greater than that of silica gel. The sorption rate of the water vapor in the sorbent bed was measured under various conditions. It was found that the sorption rate is highly dependent on the effect of cooling pipes. The sorption ratio increases and the completion time for the sorption process decreases by using multiple cooling pipes.

This paper presents a case study of phase change cooling and heating wall radiant (PC-CHWR) air conditioning system application in an energy-saving renovation project in a laboratory in Wuhan, Hubei province in China. To test the thermal performance of the system, the PHOENICS software was utilized to simulate and analyse the indoor thermal environment in the laboratory under both winter and summer operating conditions. In addition, field experiments were also conducted under winter operation condition. By comparing the results between numerical simulation and field experiment, it is found that thermal performance of the PC-CHWR air conditioning system evaluated by these two evaluation methods are quite match. Moreover, the results also show that the PC-CHWR system can meet the cooling and heating load of the building within the acceptable range.
