Evaporative Coolers & It’s Advantages

Space cooling is a major source of energy use in buildings.•Most cooling in homes & commercial buildings is supplied

by air conditioners.

•Evaporative cooling offers an economical, energy efficient & practical means of cooling.

•Maximum advantage is achievable in areas of high drybulb temperatures, with low outdoor relative humidity(Desert like).

Introduction

Three trends suggest why evaporative cooling must be embraced:

Continuously rising power costs. Increasing atmospheric temperature due to "greenhouse

effect” and "ozone-layer“ damage. Warm atmosphere=increased cooling. Low humidity, favours evaporative cooling over other

cooling systems.
