The function of air conditioning systems has seen impressive development over the most recent couple of decades everywhere throughout the world, particularly in commercial buildings in ensuring the occupant thermal comfort. All the same, it is followed to have bad effects on the earth as well as increased power consumption in buildings. Hence, there has been extensive research to recognize options, in contrast to conventional vapour compression air conditioning systems. This account intends to review the ongoing improvements concerning evaporative cooling advancements that might give adequate cooling comfort, reduce environmental impact and lower energy consumption in buildings. Researches have done as on date in evaporative cooling systems centre predominantly around mainly on drawing down the dry bulb temperature of the incoming air. The theoretical efficiency of 100% can be achieved when the room dry bulb temperature is equal to the wet-bulb temperature of the outside atmospheric air. A wide literature review has been carried out and mapped out the best evaporative cooling systems. The review covers direct evaporative cooling, indirect evaporative cooling, and combined direct-indirect cooling systems.
