Natural ventilation and cooling by evaporation in hot-arid climates [PDF]
, 1990 In hot climates, outside air is too hot during the day. In hot arid climates, low humidity increases discomfort. For comfort, hot air should be cooled before flowing into dwellings and moisture in the moving air increased.
