This paper proposes a new approach of cooling system for home. The main advantages of this cooling system are it consumes very low power, no emission of harmful gas and support for health. The basic principle of the system is free cooling is taking place when the external ambient air entropy is less than the indoor air enthalpy and the cool external air is transferred to the building room direc...

Passive design responds to improve indoor thermal comfort and minimize the energy consumption. The present research analyzed the how efficiently passive solar technologies generate heating and cooling and provide the system integration for domestic applications. In addition to this, the aim of this study is to increase the efficiency of solar systems system with integration some innovation and ...

A standard air cooled data center is a rare phenomenon. Generally each one is individually designed, with hundreds of different component combinations. They can also be energy hogs. Cooling system power consumption in older data centers is typically 100% or more of the IT load. While energy efficiency has improved recently and Power Utilization Effectiveness (PUE) values – the ratio of total en...

This involves having production units distribute to the consuming units through a single vertical and central distribution network. Each fl oor is served by an indirect connected substation (Figure 3). Enhancing comfort1 and reducing energy demand2 is possible when fl oorto-fl oor (rather than building-to-building) consumption is moderate (cooling) or low (heating) temperature radiant-based sur...

This paper presents a performance evaluation of two passive cooling strategies, daytime ventilation and night cooling, for a generic, six-story suburban apartment building in Beijing and Shanghai. The investigation uses a coupled, transient simulation approach to model heat transfer and airflow in the apartments. Wind driven ventilation is simulated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Occ...

Evaporative air cooling is an effective and environmentally benign method of cooling. Scientific evidence demonstrating that chlorofluorocarbon refrigerants (CFCs) are contributing to the destruction of the stratospheric ozone layer have prompted legislative action aimed at reducing the production and use of certain CFCs. Enacted legislation, by necessitating the introduction and use of alterna...

Evaporative cooling systems using a combination of evaporative pads and extractor fans require greenhouses to be hermetic. The greatest concentration of greenhouses in the world is located in southeast Spain, but these tend not to be hermetic structures and consequently can only rely on fogging systems as evaporative cooling techniques. Evaporative cooling boxes provide an alternative to such s...

one of the cooling systems that has received considerable attentions in recent years is the adsorption chiller, which works based on the adsorption and desorption of a working fluid in a solid porous bed. different parameters such as fin height directly affect the bed heat and mass transfer processes, and therefore, the performance of the adsorption chillers. in the present study a numerical mo...
