Abstract
A dehumidification system includes a primary evaporator, a primary condenser, a secondary evaporator, a secondary condenser, a superheat control evaporator, and a modulating valve. The superheat control evaporator is disposed in series with the secondary evaporator and is configured to receive an inlet airflow and output a first airflow to the secondary evaporator. The secondary evaporator receives the first airflow and outputs a second airflow to the primary evaporator. The primary evaporator receives the second airflow and outputs a third airflow to the secondary condenser. The secondary condenser receives the third airflow and outputs a fourth airflow to the primary condenser. The primary condenser outputs a dischargeable airflow. The modulating valve directs the flow of refrigerant to the secondary condenser or to the primary evaporator, depending on the mode of operation.
