Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

The author(s)  have examined the “Water Vapor Adsorption on Desiccant Materials for Rotary 2 Desiccant Air Conditioning Systems”. The current paper contains new information in the existing literature and has interesting. I recommend the minor revision on the basis of following suggestions/corrections

1.      Abstract should contain the physical significance of the proposed problem and the main outcomes that authors seen in graphs and tables.  

2.      Cite the governing equations properly in text.

3.      Add the nomenclature for better understanding of the readers.  

4.      Define the ranges of all parameters for which graphs and tables are produced.

5.      How does this work mat be economically beneficially for China?

6.      At the end of introduction section some question related to research gap should be mentioned to highlight the novelty of the work.

7.      The detail of numerical methods is not mentioned like convergence, mesh etc.

8.      References are small in number please enrich it by adding some recent works.

9.      The writers need to remark on the results more effectively. The observed patterns should have a plausible physical explanation in addition to reporting what can be seen graphically in the figures. There needs to be more physical understanding of the Discussion part.

Reviewer 2 Report

90: Micromeritics 3Flex - what's that?

104: 3Flex.Water - needs a space

116: he -> the

217-219: Please provide explaination or hypothesis why

233: "1.53nmAs"

In the methods section I do not see the correspondance of experiment with rotary AC, except for the temperatures. It might be used in any system with SG-H2O.

Is it possible to obtain the values used for popular adsorption kinetics models?

Language ok. Some spelling issues like to many or no spaces, some interpunction issues.
