dc.description.abstract | The severity of extreme weather conditions brought on by climate change are conditioning
quality of life, economic development, and well-being in today’s cities. Conventional measures have
been shown to be insu cient for tackling climate change and must be supplemented with ecofriendly
approaches. Hence, the scientific community’s endeavor to develop natural cooling techniques that
lower energy consumption while delivering satisfactory comfort levels. For its simplicity and low
cost, evaporative cooling has gained in popularity in recent years. The substantial cooling power to
be drawn from evaporative mist cooling, makes it an attractive alternative to conventional systems.
Research conducted to date on the technique has focused on producing cold air, whilst cooling
the water involved has been neither assessed nor experimentally validated. No readily applicable
simplified model for the system able to use operating parameters as input variables has been defined
either. The present study consequently aimed to experimentally assess the cooling power of the
evaporation of sprayed water and experimentally validate a simplified model to assess and design
such systems. The findings confirmed the cooling power of the technique, with declines in water
temperature of up to 6 C, and with it the promise a orded by this natural air conditioning method.
Finally, simplified model developed allows to evaluate this technique like a conventional system for
producing fresh water. | es |
