Cooling Buildings by Solar Energy
New methods now permit the economic application of low-grade solar energy for cooling buildings, as for two projects described here. Air conditioning dehumidification is separated from temperature control by using a liquid drying agent. This is dried for re-use by low-grade solar energy via inexpensive flat plate collectors. Heat recovery also enhances the efficiency of the regeneration process, thus reducing the collector area required. The principles, techniques and the interactive factors which must be assessed are outlined here by a partner and director of engineering design of Haines Lundberg Waehler, the New York firm of architects, engineers and planners.
