Abstract:
Disclosed are a dehumidification apparatus, and an air conditioning apparatus and system having the same. The dehumidification apparatus includes: a desiccant rotor having a desiccant for adsorbing moisture; and a regeneration unit disposed at one side of the desiccant rotor, for desorbing the moisture adsorbed to the desiccant. The regeneration unit includes at least one of a hollow hot water line containing hot water exchanging heat with the air flowing toward the desiccant rotor. The dehumidification apparatus efficiently reproduces the desiccant for dehumidification and air conditioning.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are a tube continuum robot and a method for manufacturing a tube. More particularly, disclosed are a tube continuum robot and a method for manufacturing a tube, which is used in the tube continuum robot having a plurality of overlapping tubes and has anisotropic patterns for controlling the bending rigidity and torsional rigidity of the tube. In an embodiment, a tube continuum robot has a plurality of overlapping tubes, one or more of the plurality of overlapping tubes having a curved shape, wherein a plurality of anisotropic patterns are formed on the outer circumferential surface of the one or more tubes along the lengthwise or circumferential direction of the tubes.
Abstract:
Provided are a composition for forming an absorption-desorption sheet, an absorption-desorption sheet including the same, and a method of preparing the absorption-desorption sheet. The composition for forming an absorption-desorption sheet includes: a polymerizable first monomer or oligmer comprising an ionic hydrophilic group; a polymerizable second monomer or oligmer comprising a non-ionic hydrophilic group; and a deliquescent salt that has excellent absorption-desorption performance—and allows repeated use of the absorption-desorption sheet. In addition, the absorption-desorption sheet has antibacterial and deodorant performance, and thus, is able to inhibit the growth of bacteria and fungi in a humid environment.
