Geo-Climatic Applicability of Direct Evaporative Cooling in Italy
This chapter focuses on the climatic applicability of passive direct (downdraught) evaporative cooling (PDEC) techniques in the provincial capital cities of Italy. First, a PDEC potentiality map was produced using a previously developed method based on three variables: wet bulb depression, summer comfort air temperature threshold (25 °C) and cooling ...

Theoretical investigation of combining cooling tower and cooling coil with direct evaporative cooler
AbstractA theoretical study is developed to examine the feasibility of using the cooling tower and the cooling coil with the direct evaporative cooler in the highest summer temperature in Karbala/Iraq. This is due to the inability of the direct evaporative cooler in reducing the outside air temperature and efficiency reduction in the mechanical vapor ...
