Abstract Desiccant cooling system performance, its energy saving potentials, its modelling techniques have subject of intense interests for HVAC Engineers. These systems have yielded number of system designs and simulation methods for cooling methods. The heat and mass transfer phenomenon, governing equation for Desiccant dehumidifier wheels are elaborated in details. The mathematical modelling of desiccant wheel is required to increase its performance by using novel designs at low regeneration temperatures. In this mathematical model, the heat and mass transfer equations have been derived and solved by (partial differential equation) PDE solver and the desiccant wheel parameters are investigated.
