Summary

MAINTAINS THAT RISING AVERAGE TEMPERATURES IN SUMMERS AHEAD MAY CUT THE EFFICIENCY OF INSTALLED AIR-COOLED MECHANICAL AIR CONDITIONING, WHILE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF EVAPORATIVECOOLING MIGHT INCREASE. FOR THESE REASONS EXAMINES AFRESH TRADITIONAL ARID-STATE COOLERS. PRESENTS A SYSTEM FOR ECONOMIC COMPARISONS BETWEEN EVAPORATIVE AND REFRIGERATIVE SYSTEMS. TREATS ENERGY EFFICIENCY RATIOS, COOLING AIR LOSSES AND WASHED AIR GAINS. (INT. BUILD. SERV. ABSTR., GB., 24, N 5, 1989/09-10, 89-01461.
