Abstract
ⶠThe vapor fluxes of dual-layer hydrophobic/hydrophilic hollow fiber membranes in direct contact membrane distillation are modeled. ⶠIt is found that the vapor flux increases when the thermal conductivity of the inner layer is enhanced. ⶠGraphite and multiwall carbon nanotubes were incorporated into the inner layer, leading to a higher thermal conductivity and greater vapor flux.
