Summary

A thermally activated glass fiber reinforced gypsum building (1m x 1m x 1m) equipped with desiccant system is proposed and investigated for the hot and humid climatic conditions. It effectively controls the temperature and humidity of the indoor, closer to comfort condition. In the present study, the influence of temperature and flow rate of the cooling water are experimentally investigated for the thermal performance on the proposed system. The performance indices are indoor temperature, relative humidity, operative temperature, PMV and PPD. It is found that even at 38 oC (OAT), 40% (R.H) ambient condition, the proposed system maintains the comfort environment with the inlet temperature and flow rate of the cooling water as 20oC and 350 lph respectively.
