Hydrogel desorption shows promise for thermal management and passive cooling engineering applications, but challenges persist in understanding particle desorption and shrinkage. A Lattice Boltzmann-based phase-field model was developed by combining experiments and mesoscopic simulations to simulate conjugate heat transfer, desorption kinetics, and shrinkage of single hydrogel particles, achieving <5% deviation from experiments. Results show that raising temperature from 343 to 353 K increases 1-h desorption mass by ~12% of initial mass (vs. 1.3% for 313-323 K), driven by rising saturation vapor pressure and falling evaporation enthalpy. Shrinkage is more sensitive at high temperature and low humidity, with surface area reductions of ~17% (343-353 K) and~13% (20-30% RH), compared to ~5% under mild conditions. Reducing particle initial mass from 5.75 g to 0.16 g shortens the time to release 50% of the initial water from 516 min to 117 min, indicating greater efficiency for smaller particles. This work bridges the macro-pore scale gap and offers a numerical tool with design insights for passive cooling.
