Abstract: Desiccant-based air handling units (AHU) can allow significant energy saving and emissions reductions with respect to conventional air-conditioning systems. In this work, experimental tests are used to investigate a hybrid desiccant cooling system (DCS) with desiccant wheel (DW), interacting with a small scale cogenerator.
