Summary

The effect of length, radius of pipe and air mass flow rate on the seasonal cooling potential of an underground air pipe system have been investigated. The most effective combination of radius, length, number of pipes and air mass flow rate for maximum cooling potential, corresponding to a given mass of material of the pipe have also been investigated. Calculations have been made for hot-dry and composite climates typified by Jodhpur and Delhi, respectively.
