Dehumidification Effect by Coupling an Electroosmotic Material With a Desiccant Interface

An electroosmotic dehumidifier system is modeled in order to estimate the area (size), voltage and power needed per unit mass flow of water to be transferred from a region. The operation of an A/C system with and without the electroosmotic dehumidifier is compared and situations where savings is possible are highlighted.
