Amélioration des potentiels de refroidissement évaporatif combinant un plafond refroidissant et une température limitée de stockage.

Raising evaporative cooling potentials using combined cooled ceiling and high temperature cooling storage.

Résumé

Evaporative cooling is able to generate the cooling medium at a temperature approaching to the ambient wet bulb temperature. In this paper, a low-energy air-conditioning strategy is proposed, which is a combination of cooled ceiling, microencapsulated phase change material slurry storage and evaporative cooling technologies. The assessment of evaporative cooling availability and utilization is done for five representative climatic cities, including Hong Kong, Shanghai, Beijing, Lanzhou and Urumqi in China, and the energy saving potential of the proposed air-conditioning system is analyzed by using a well validated building simulation code. The results indicate that the new system offers energy saving potential up to 80% under north-western Chinese climate and up to 10% under south-eastern Chinese climate. The optimal sizing method of the slurry storage tank is also proposed based on the slurry cooling storage behaviours and cooling demand variations of the ceiling panels.
