Evaporative Cooling System

According to the climate conditions of Hunan province and the design parameters related to air conditioning, the energy consumption and the related characteristics of the liquid desiccant evaporative cooling system (LDECS) are compared with primary return air conditioning system. The results show that energy consumption of LDECS can be decreased by 11.78% compared to the primary return air system. LDECS has a certain degree of energy saving potential in Hunan province, especially when waste heat is available.

Evaporative Cooling System

Air conditioning systems are responsible for increasing men's work efficiency as well for his comfort, mainly in the warm periods of the year. Currently, the most used system is the mechanical vapor compression system. However, in many cases, evaporative cooling system can be an economical alternative to replace the conventional system, under several conditions, or as a pre-cooler in the conventional systems. It leads to a reduction in the operational cost, comparing with systems using only mechanical refrigeration. Evaporative cooling operates using induced processes of heat and mass transfer, where water and air are the working fluids. It consists in water evaporation, induced by the passage of an air flow, thus decreasing the air temperature. This paper presents the basic principles of the evaporative cooling process for human thermal comfort, the principles of operation for the direct evaporative cooling system and the mathematical development of the equations of thermal exchanges, allowing the determination of the effectiveness of saturation. It also presents some results of experimental tests in a direct evaporative cooler that take place in the Air Conditioning Laboratory at the University of Taubaté Mechanical Engineering Department, and the experimental results are used to determinate the convective heat transfer coefficient and to compare with the mathematical model.

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.

Evaporative Cooling System

This study assesses the potential selection of efficient air-conditioning (AC) and cooling systems in order to avoid excess power consumption, mitigation of harmful refrigerants generated by the existing AC systems. Several varieties of active and passive air-conditioning systems i.e. heating ventilating air-conditioning (HVAC), vapor compression air-conditioning (VCAC) conventional direct evaporative cooling (DEC) and indirect evaporative cooling (IEC)  and desiccant air-conditioning (DAC) systems are under practice for the cooling and dehumidification. The storage of agricultural products mainly based on product individual characteristics i.e. respiration rate, transpiration rate and moisture content of that product. Variant ambient air conditions and the type of application are the main parameters for the choice of air-conditioning system to get optimum performance. The DAC system subsidize the coefficient of performance (COP) in humid regions, coastal ranges of developing countries e.g. Karachi and Gawadar (Pakistan) with hot humid climatic conditions. In similar way, hottest regions of the country such as Sibbi, Jacobabad and Multan perform better results when incorporates with M-cycle evaporative cooling system. Variation in ambient air conditions directly affect the cooling load and the choice of sustainable air-conditioning system
