Abstract

       Calcium chloride solution has high hygroscopicity.  This works particularly nicely in liquid form.  Water is added to dissolve it, creating a solution of calcium chloride.  through the use of a heat pipe coil, a moisture absorber, and a calcium chloride solution.  to use a simulation room with climate control to regulate the temperature and employ the solution as a medium for heat and moisture absorption.  To get the relative humidity and temperature readings, run a test.  To determine the distinction between inside and outside. Two types of tests were conducted: employing calcium chloride solution as a medium and testing under normal conditions.  Utilize the program's calculations of the data.  Water vapor that the system is capable of absorbing from the test chamber can be calculated using the psychrometric diagram.  Daytime testing was place for 6 hours every day for one week per experiment.


       The experimental results revealed that calcium chloride solution, when utilized as a medium for absorbing moisture and heating The average temperature in the test room was 38.40°C with an average humidity of 41.67%RH, while the test room containing calcium chloride solution had an average temperature of 31.22°C and an average humidity of 60.16%RH. The normal conditions in the test room were 35.2 °C and 61.5% relative humidity. According to the test results, utilizing a moisture absorber with a heat pipe coil resulted in a temperature difference of 7.18 °C, accounting for 10.45 %, as compared to a room under normal conditions.  The system has a capacity to absorb 2.67 g/kgair of water vapor from the testing room.
