摘要
Desiccant coated aluminum fins are an important part of desiccant coated heat exchangers (DCHEs). The overall performance of DCHE-based systems benefits from improved heat and mass transfer characteristics of desiccant coated aluminum fins. In this paper, a new type of nano-silver powder supported FAPO-34 composite fin is proposed. Samples with different mass percentages of nano-silver powder were fabricated and related characteristics including thermal conductivity, cycle water uptake and adsorption/desorption performance were investigated. Our experimental results show greatly improved thermal conductivity of nano-silver powder supported composite sheets. Analysis of the adsorption testing confirmed that the nano-silver powder improved dynamic adsorption performance, and adsorption rate coefficients of composite sheets increasing by 6-103% compared with that of a pure FAPO-34 coated sheet. The composite samples also exhibited better dynamic desorption performance, in that their desorption rate coefficients increased to be 1.3-2.3 times as great as those of the pure FAPO-34 sample.
