Evaporative-cooling technology is a promising alternative to conventional air-cooling systems that are based on using direct expansion units in terms of energy efficiency. Seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER) calculation ...

At present, there is an increasing interest in indirect evaporative coolers (IEC), which are an effective alternative to conventional cooling systems due to their high efficiency. In this study a new simplified first order ...

Evaporative cooling (EC) is an interesting alternative for reducing energy consumption and CO2 emission associated with the cooling of building. In the present work, a prototype of an innovative dew-point indirect evaporative ...

Energy-efficient dehumidification systems are necessary to reduce energy consumption and CO2 emissions into the atmosphere. Desiccant systems could be an alternative to conventional air dehumidification systems based on ...

Desiccant wheels, DW, can be used to control the indoor air conditions in buildings and industrials environments. The control of the outlet process air conditions of a DW can be obtained by controlling the moisture removal ...

Dew-point indirect evaporative coolers (DIEC) allow to significantly reduce air temperature from supply air flow and require a low energy consumption, so they could be an interesting alternative to conventional air-cooling ...
