Application of evaporative cooling to large HVAC systems.

Author(s) : BROWN W. K.

Summary

Indirect evaporative cooling is a proven technology that can reduce mechanical cooling demand and energy requirements. Various concepts are available in predesigned configurations for incorporation with packaged or semi-custom- manufactured heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) equipment. Application of indirect evaporative cooling in large built-up HVAC systems is often not considered, thereby missing the opportunity for significant savings potential. The paper discusses four concepts that have been successfully applied in large systems and the associated cooling and energy savings, and is an overview of previously published work.
