An overview of evaporative air conditioning technologies and contributions towards reducing CFC and energy usage.
Author(s) : FOSTER R. E.
Summary
Water-evaporation air cooling techniques, usable mainly in hot and dry climates are explained. The system can be direct, indirect or a combination of both. It can be backed up by an extra air desiccation system with dehydrant regeneration. Finally, even for climates that are less hot and dry, this system makes energy savings possible when it is used with conventional systems. Nearly all the United States could be covered with this air conditioning technology.
