The present study intended to study the dehumidification performance of KCOOH solution both experimentally and numerically. The heat and mass transfer model for internal cooling dehumidifier was built. The influences of different parameters on dehumidification performance were identified by experiments. Results indicated that the air temperature and solution has negligible influence on dehumidification performance. However, the air humidity and solution temperature have significant influence on dehumidification due to its close relationship with mass transfer driving force. The proposed model can simulate the dehumidification performance in terms of absolute moisture change well with the MARD of 6.05%.
