Indirect evaporative cooling of a low energy building.

Author(s) : ARKAR C., MEDVED S., NOVAK P.

Summary

With the rise in living standards, there is an increasing demand for the cooling of living space. Rational energy use demands the use of alternative ways of cooling because the energy consumption of compressor cooling is high. In this article a new, cheap and efficient paperboard compact heat exchanger and indirect evaporative cooling are presented. Indirect evaporative cooling is the most suitable way of cooling low-energy buildings, especially if combined with a heat recovery ventilation system. Operation simulation of an indirect evaporative cooler installed in a low-energy house is also shown.
