Abstract
The air conditioning system can lower the cost by saving the energy through the use of a combination of a circulation type unit and outdoor air intake type unit, as well as simplification of mechanical arrangements. The air conditioning system comprises a first air conditioning unit for processing outdoor air and introducing processed outdoor air into indoors while discharging indoor air to outside; and a second air conditioning unit for processing indoor air while circulating the indoor air. The first air conditioning unit comprises: a desiccant device for adsorbing moisture from the outdoor air and being regenerated by the indoor air to be discharged; and a heat pump device functioning as a heat source for regenerating the desiccant device. A high temperature heat source of the heat pump device is used for heating regeneration air and a low temperature heat source of the heat pump device is used for cooling the outdoor air.
