ShareSummary
The paper considers the thermodynamic aspects of selecting an economical domestic cooling system for an arid region. It also discusses the advantages and drawbacks of using the systems and the consequences of possible improvements of each system. The thermodynamic perspective brings out the thermodynamic principle utilized by each system in cooling an apartment. The economic evaluation is based on life-cycle costing, covering the purchase, installation, operation, and maintenance of the two systems.
