Book excerpt: Preface: The Journey into Evaporative Cooling In the sweltering heat of a changing world, the quest for cooling solutions that are sustainable, efficient, and harmonious with nature has never been more urgent. It is within this context that we embark on a journey into the fascinating realm of evaporative cooling—a journey that spans millennia, delves into the science of water's transformative power, explores the diverse applications of this ancient technique, and envisions a future where sustainability and comfort coexist seamlessly. The pages that follow will be a testament to the enduring legacy of evaporative cooling, from its origins in the distant past to its relevance in the modern age. We will unravel the intricate science behind this natural cooling process, discovering how it harnesses the power of evaporation to bring relief to the scorching heat. Along the way, we will witness its adaptability and resilience in various contexts, from traditional desert dwellings to advanced industrial facilities, from personal cooling devices to sustainable urban planning. But our journey does not end in the past or the present. It extends into the future, where innovations and possibilities in evaporative cooling promise a cooler, greener world. We will explore the cutting-edge technologies and sustainable practices that hold the potential to reshape the way we interact with our environment, providing us with comfort while minimizing our environmental footprint. This preface marks the beginning of a voyage through the world of evaporative cooling—a voyage of discovery, reflection, and inspiration. As we delve into the following chapters, we invite you to join us on this exploration, to learn from the wisdom of the past, to engage with the challenges of the present, and to envision the possibilities of the future. Together, we embark on a journey that celebrates the timeless principles of evaporative cooling and charts a course toward a more sustainable, comfortable, and harmonious existence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Air conditioning boosts man's efficiency no less than his comfort. Air-conditioned homes, offices, and factories unmistakably raise human productivity and reduce absenteeism, turnover, mistakes, accidents and grievances, especially in summer. Accordingly, many employers every year cool workrooms and offices to raise summer profits. Employees in turn find cool homes enhancing not only comfort and prestige but also personal efficiency and income. With such economic impetus, low-cost summer cooling must irresistibly spread to all kinds of occupied buildings. Refrigeration provides our best cooling, serving well where people are closely spaced in well-constructed, shaded, and insulated structures. However, its first and operating costs bar it from our hottest commercial, industrial, and residential buildings. Fortunately, evaporative cooling is an economical substitute in many regions. First used in Southwest homes and businesses and in textile mills, it soon invaded other fields and climates. In 1946, six firms produced 200,000 evaporative coolers; in 1958, 25 firms produced 1,250,000, despite the phenomenal sale of refrigerating window air conditioners. Though clearly secondary to refrigeration, evaporative cooling is 60 to 80 percent is economical for moderate income groups and cheaper to buy and operate. Thus, it climates where summers are short. Moreover, it cheaply cools hot, thinly constructed mills, factories, workshops, foundries, powerhouses, farm buildings, canneries, etc., where refrigerated cooling is prohibitively expensive.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Providing guidance to design engineers and contractors, this book illustrates in full detail how operational savings of 50 to 75 percent can be achieved with evaporative cooling technologies compared to equivalent electric-based systems. Thorough in scope, the book addresses the technical aspects of evaporative cooling, as well as a broad range of specific commercial and industrial applications. Topics include cost analysis, technology and equipment options, application guidelines, and operational and performance characteristics. The third edition adds a new chapter which shows how evaporative cooling can be integrated into large-scale HVAC systems, with discussions of achievable savings, maintenance costs, cooling tower and finned coil indirect cooling, wet bulb economizers, precooling condensed air, makeup air and return air, humidity control, and more, including sample calculations as well as demonstration and engineering data."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book excerpt: "Under the right conditions and applications, evaporative air-conditioning (EAC) technologies can provide excellent cooling and ventilation with minimal energy consumption." Evaporative air-conditioning technologies are being used increasingly in residential and commercial applications worldwide. EAC technologies, which rely on water as a coolant rather than on chemical refrigerants, are economical to produce and use and have important environmental benefits. This paper introduces the technical aspects of EAC, reviews EAC's scope of application, and surveys the specific climatic conditions under which EAC can be used most effectively in industrialized and developing countries.

This book was released on 2023-05-26 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book systematically discusses state-of-the-art dew-point evaporative cooling and provides key insights into current research efforts and future research interests. Novel energy-efficient and environment-friendly cooling technologies are essential to reduce the sharply rising energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions and achieve carbon neutrality. Conventional air-conditioners which adopt a vapor compression cycle are neither energy-efficient nor sustainable due to the use of compressors and chemical refrigerants, as well as their intrinsic coupling of sensible and latent cooling loads. With the merits of high energy efficiency and the ability to decouple cooling loads without using chemical refrigerants, indirect dew-point evaporative cooling provides an ideal alternative solution to air conditioning in a variety of applications. A comprehensive review of evaporative cooling and their underlying engineering challenges is included. Advanced engineering and modeling experience critical to the development of dew-point evaporative coolers are highlighted. The effective analysis techniques for dew-point evaporative coolers are documented, and their intrinsic characteristics captured by these methods are reported. Lastly, advanced dew-point evaporative cooling systems in various energy-connected applications are discussed by providing multiple case studies. Specifically targeted at HVAC engineers, thermal scientists, and energy-engineering researchers, this book will balance fundamental concepts, industrial applications, and leading-edge research. As this book provides readers with depth and breadth of coverage, it can also be used by graduate-level students in relevant fields.
