FUNDAMENTAL CONCEPTS INTEGRATING EVAPORATIVE TECHNIQUES IN HVAC SYSTEMS.

Author(s) : BROWN W. K.

Summary

EVAPORATIVE TECHNIQUES WILL NOT REPLACE THE NEED FOR MECHANICAL COOLING IN ALL APPLICATIONS. RATHER, THESE TECHNIQUES SHOULD BE EVALUATED AS AN ENERGY CONSERVATION MEASURE TO REDUCE BOTH COOLING AND HUMIDIFICATION ENERGY. THE COOLING AND HUMIDIFICATION ENERGY DISPLACED WILL REDUCE DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY THE COMBUSTION OF FOSSIL FUEL AND THE RELEASE OF CO2 TO THE ATMOSPHERE. THE PAPER IDENTIFIES VARIOUS FUNDAMENTAL EVAPORATIVE CONCEPTS. THESE SYSTEMS INCLUDE MAKEUP AIR, SINGLE-DUCT, DUAL-DUCT WITH AND WITHOUT FACE, AND BYPASS DAMPER ARRANGEMENTS.
