Type of article: Article, IJR article

Summary

This study presents energy and exergy analyses and sustainability assessment of the novel evaporative air cooling system based on Maisotsenko cycle which allows the product fluid to be cooled in to a dew point temperature of the incoming air. In the energy analysis, Maisotsenko cycle’s wet-bulb and dew point effectiveness, COP and primary energy ratio rates are calculated. Exergy analysis of the system is then carried out for six reference temperatures ranging from 0 to 23.88°C as the incoming air (surrounding) temperature. The specific flow exergy, exergy input, exergy output, exergy destruction, exergy loss, exergy efficiency, exergetic COP, primary exergy ratio and entropy generation rates are determined for various cases. Furthermore, sustainability assessment is obtained using sustainability index method. As a result, maximum exergy efficiency is found to be 19.14% for a reference temperature of 23.88°C where the optimum operation takes place.
