Evaporative-Cooling Potential for Office Buildings
This paper presents the results of both a performance and an economic assessment of the evaporative-cooling potential for office buildings in 11 US climate zones. Evaporative-cooling systems of the direct and combined direct/indirect type that are part of the heating, ventilating and air-conditioning (HVAC) system were evaluated. Thermal-storage strategies were not considered in this study. The DOE-2 building-energy-analysis computer program was used to simulate the evaporative-cooling performance of typical single-story and multistory office buildings. Performance results are presented as energy and peak demand reductions for each type of office building in each climate zone. Economic results are summarized as investment targets and aggregate/energy cost savings. (ERA citation 08:029804)
