Heat and mass transfer analysis of evaporative cooling process in a pot-in-pot cooling system is done based on Reynolds flow hypotheses. The model proposed herein assumes that the heat transfer due to natural convection is coupled with an imaginary ambient air mass flow rate (gAo) which is an essential assumption in order to arrive at the solution for the rate of water evaporation. Effect of several parameters on the pot-in-pot system performance has been studied. The equations are iteratively solved and detailed results are presented to evaluate the cooling performance with respect to various parameters: ambient temperature, relative humidity (RH), pot height, pot radius, total heat load, thermal and hydraulic conductivity, and radiation heat transfer. It was found that pot height, pot radius, total heat load, and radiation heat transfer play a critical role in the performance of the system. The model predicts that at an ambient temperature of 50 °C and RH of 40%, the system achieves a maximum efficiency of 73.44% resulting in a temperature difference of nearly 20 °C. Similarly, for a temperature of 30 °C and RH of 80%, the system efficiency was minimum at 14.79%, thereby verifying the usual concept that the pot-in-pot system is best suited for hot and dry ambient conditions.

This paper focus on cooling load calculation of the meeting hall [4m*15m*7m] in the location of 8.55 north latitude, East longitude 39.27 and Altitude 1726 m elevation above sea level. The total building cooling load consists of inside design condition of building, outside design condition of building, consider building mater and wall facing to sun and etc.by categorized in to sensible and latent heat gain from ventilation, infiltration and occupants. From different Room heat gain component, the total heat load 21,301.66 w.

The coats of birds and mammals typically vary through their depth in structure, insulation and optical qualities. Physical models predict that such variation can substantially affect the solar heat load acquired by an animal. This study quantifies the consequences of complex coat structure for solar heat gain in the rock squirrel (Spermophilus variegatus (Erxleben, 1777)), a species normally exposed to intense solar radiation. This species' pelage consists of two well-defined layers: a dense inner coat of fine, dark hairs, and a sparse outer coat of coarse, light hairs. The optics, structure and thermal insulation of the inner and outer coats are quantified and used to predict rates of radiative heat gain using a physical model. The radiative heat load measured at the skin compares well with model predictions. The validated model is then used to explore the consequences for solar heat gain of varying the relative proportions of the inner and outer coat layers. Results demonstrate that the ratio of inner to outer coat depths occurring in rock squirrels is very near that theoretically predicted to minimize solar heat gain. This indicates that optimization of fur structure may represent an effective means of adjusting solar heat gain independent of coat insulation and surface coloration.

The functional relation of inlet air quantity, total heat load, ambient air temperature and humidity of the mechanical cooling tower was analyzed. The curves of inlet air quantity with total heat load, ambient air temperature and humidity were plotted by programing. The results show that the inlet air quantity will increase linearly with total heat load and with ambient humidity as well, but the influence was less. Finally the function of inlet air quantity for mechanical cooling tower is fitted. The function can calculate the inlet air quantity for automatic control system of mechanical cooling tower, to achieve the goal of energy saving.
