What statement is true concerning a liquid desiccant cargo-hold dehumidification system?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) Water absorbed in the liquid desiccant is evaporated and driven out of the desiccant by means of a heating coil located in the regeneration chamber.
This is correct because in a liquid desiccant cargo-hold dehumidification system, the water absorbed by the liquid desiccant is removed through a regeneration process. This process involves heating the desiccant, typically using a heating coil in the regeneration chamber, which causes the absorbed water to evaporate and be driven out of the desiccant, allowing it to be reused.
The other options are incorrect because they describe the wrong mechanisms for removing the water from the desiccant. Options B and C describe a cooling coil or a heating coil in the regeneration chamber, respectively, which would not effectively evaporate and drive out the absorbed water.
