Abstract
In this paper, there are problems such as large energy consumption and complex system in the field of condensation dehumidification. It is found that increasing pressure can strengthen the effect of condensation dehumidification, simplify the system and reduce energy consumption. So this paper simulates the condensation and dehumidification process of humid air in horizontal pipe under positive pressure. The results show that the dehumidification capacity increases by 25%∼30% when the pressure increases by 100kPa on average. The increase of pressure has little effect on the heat transfer coefficient, but the increase of humidity increases the heat transfer coefficient more obvious. When the humidity of wet air increases by 20%, the heat transfer coefficient increases by 18% ∼ 33%. The dehumidification capacity and heat transfer coefficient increase with the increase of pipe diameter and fluid flow rate.
