Abstract:

This review presents a detailed case study on evaporative coolers, a widely-used technology for air conditioning in hot and dry climates. It is also known as swamp cooler. Evaporative cooling, an energy-efficient and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional refrigeration-based cooling systems, operates on the principle of water evaporation to reduce air temperature. The paper critically examines various aspects of 360-degree evaporative coolers, including their working principles, types, efficiency, and environmental impact. The case study explores a specific application of evaporative coolers in an industrial or residential setting, analysing performance data under different environmental conditions. Key performance metrics such as cooling efficiency, water consumption, and energy savings are discussed in comparison to conventional air conditioning systems. Additionally, factors like the local climate, water quality, and maintenance requirements are evaluated for their impact on the cooler's performance. This review also addresses common challenges faced by evaporative coolers, such as humidity limitations and scaling issues. By drawing insights from the case study, the paper provides recommendations for optimizing evaporative cooling systems for enhanced performance and sustainability. The findings suggest that, while evaporative coolers are a viable solution for specific climates, their application must be carefully tailored to maximize benefits while minimizing potential drawbacks.

Abstract:

Evaporative coolers consist of two main types: (a) the direct evaporative cooler in which water mixes with the air to be cooled; and (b) the indirect evaporative cooler in which water is sprayed into alternate passages cooling the secondary airflow, which in turns cools the primary flow which then passes to the building to be cooled. A three-dimensional numerical evaluation of the indirect cooler is given. Energy and mass balance equations are derived for the primary and secondary flows and the effectiveness is calculated for different variable inlet velocities and compared with experimental values.

Abstract:

Abstract: Evaporative coolers lower the temperature of air using the principle of evaporative cooling, unlike typical air conditioning systems which use vapor-compression refrigeration or absorption refrigerator. Evaporative cooling is the conversion of liquid water into vapor using the thermal energy in the air, resulting in a lower air temperature. The energy needed to evaporate the water is taken from the air in the form of sensible heat, which affects the temperature of the air, and converted into latent heat, the energy present in the water vapor component of the air, whilst the air remains at a constant enthalpy value. Vapor-compression refrigeration uses evaporative cooling, but the evaporated vapor is within a sealed system, and is then compressed ready to evaporate again, using energy to do so. Simple evaporative coolers water is evaporated into the environment, and not recovered. In an interior space cooling unit, the evaporated water is introduced into the space along with the now-cooled air; in an evaporative tower the evaporated water is carried off in the airflow exhaust. To Develop the Energy efficient, environment friendly direct evaporative air conditioning system having low operating cost suitable for hot and dry regions To Manufacture advanced 360-degree Rotating air cooler which rotates and provide air cooling in all directions. It can be used for domestic as well as Industrial applications. The temperature of dry air can be dropped significantly through the phase transition of liquid water to water vapor (evaporation). This can cool air using much less energy than refrigeration. In extremely dry climates, evaporative cooling of air has the added benefit of conditioning the air with more moisture for the comfort of building occupants

Abstract:

External-cooling indirect evaporative coolers with different configurations and working air sources are incomprehensively analyzed and compared so far. This paper investigates the mechanism and theory of operation of indirect flat-panel evaporative coolers based on X-analysis. Then, based on the second law of thermodynamics analysis, the entropy production rate of the flat-plate heat exchanger of the cooler is calculated. As a result of this analysis, the optimal energy efficiency-evaporation efficiency and cooling capacity values are presented in terms of effective parameters in the design.

Abstract:

This paper describes how direct evaporative coolers can be used to improve the energy efficiency of air-cooled chillers in various operating conditions and with different strategies for staging condenser fans. These coolers are installed in front of air-cooled condensers to precool outdoor air before entering the condensers. A simulation analysis on an air-cooled chiller equipped with a direct evaporative cooler showed that when head pressure control is used, the cooler enables the condensing temperature to drop by 2.1–6.2°C, resulting in a 1.4-14.4% decrease in chiller power and a 1.3–4.6% increase in the refrigeration effect. When the chiller with the cooler operates under condensing temperature control, where condenser effectiveness is enhanced by staging all condenser fans, there is a savings in chiller power of 1.3-4.3% in some operating conditions in which the drop in compressor power exceeds the additional condenser fan power due to the pressure drop across the cooler.

Abstract:

The purpose of the study is to develop and conduct a cycle of theoretical and experimental studies of low-temperature evaporative air coolers. The developed circuit solutions of the coolers ensure the reduction of the evaporative cooling limit from the temperature of the wet thermometer to the dew point temperature of the incoming air flow. The analysis of the fundamental capabilities of low-temperature air coolers are made taking into account modern solutions (patents) and publications in leading foreign scientific journals. The scientific novelty of the research consists in analyzing of the state of the air flow within the nozzle of the evaporative cooler. The authors conducted studies taking into account the danger of “recondensation” of the processes of joint heat and mass transfer in an indirect type evaporative air cooler - a chiller, which provides an opportunity to analyze the state of the main and auxiliary air flows in the evaporative air cooler depending on the ratio of gas and liquid flows and initial parameters (temperature and moisture content) of the external air. A series of experimental studies of hydrodynamic processes and joint heat and mass transfer is developed. The goal of reducing the limit of evaporative cooling is achieved by using of air coolers - chillers ensures the achievement of comfort parameters of air in an air conditioning system without using traditional vapor compression technology. This goal is achieved by using a portion of chilled water to pre-cool the incoming air stream with its constant moisture content

Abstract:

Evaporative cooling systems have many advantages over refrigeration systems, such as not necessarily requiring connection to the national grid, not using refrigerants that emit ozone-depleting substances into the environment, and can be constructed from locally available materials. However, little information on incorporating desiccant as an air preconditioning component to increase the performance of these coolers is available. In this regard, this study aimed to examine the efficacy of three cooling systems: an evaporative cooler with a silica gel desiccant component (desiccant cooler), an evaporative cooler without desiccant (desiccant-free cooler), and an evaporative charcoal cooler (charcoal cooler). Dry and wet bulb temperatures and relative humidity were recorded during the experiment and used to determine the cooling efficiencies of the systems; temperature drops; and humidity increases, which are used as performance indicators. Results demonstrate a significant (P<0.05) impact of the coolers on all analysed parameters. The desiccant cooler achieved the highest cooling efficiency at 87.2%, followed by the charcoal cooler at 79.3%, and the desiccant-free cooler at 67.2%. Temperature reduction was most pronounced in the desiccant cooler (3.7°C), followed by the charcoal cooler (3.2°C) and the desiccant-free cooler (2.8°C). Relative humidity levels increased by 30.7%, 23%, and 26.1% in the desiccant, desiccant-free, and charcoal coolers, respectively. Importantly, the evaporative cooler with desiccant operated without ozone-depleting refrigerants and utilized solar energy, offering an environmentally friendly solution. Its capacity to provide appropriate storage conditions for a wide range of fruits and vegetables makes it particularly beneficial for farmers lacking access to adequate cooling storage facilities, enabling them to preserve their produce effectively.

Abstract:

The artificial neural network method has been widely applied to the performance prediction of fillers and evaporative coolers, but its application to the dew point indirect evaporative coolers is rare. To fill this research gap, a novel performance prediction model for dew point indirect evaporative cooler based on back propagation neural network was established using Matlab2018. Simulation based on the test date in the moderately humid region of Yulin City (Shaanxi Province, China) finds that: the root mean square error of the evaporation efficiency of the back propagation model is 3.1367, and the r2 is 0.9659, which is within the acceptable error range. However, the relative error of individual data (sample 7) is a little bit large, which is close to 10%. In order to improve the accuracy of the back propagation model, an optimized model based on particle swarm optimization was established. The relative error of the optimized model is generally smaller than that of the BP neural network especially for sample 7. It is concluded that the optimized artificial neural network is more suitable for solving the performance prediction problem of dew point indirect evaporative cooling units.

Abstract:

An indirect evaporative cooler that uses a Maisotsenko (M) Cycle has the potential to be a green and sustainable solution for managing a building’s cooling demand since it can attain sub-wet bulb temperature without humidification. This study presents the design and simulation analysis of a crossflow indirect evaporative cooler using the COMSOL Multiphysics software for various ambient conditions. The cooler’s performance was evaluated by varying the inlet air temperatures. The analysis was conducted using numerical simulations, and the outcomes were compared with experimental data. The simulation results demonstrated that the cooler could achieve significant temperature reductions at a minor energy consumption as compared to traditional air conditioning systems. This study delivers that this system reduces the temperature of inlet air up to 22°C as well as cooling capacity and coefficient of performance values are 3.699 kW and 27.40. Overall, the results demonstrate the potential of crossflow indirect evaporative coolers as an energy-efficient alternative to conventional air conditioning systems.

Abstract:

This paper presents fabrication of an ultrasonic regenerative evaporative cooler, coupled with a desiccant dehumidifier. Ultrasonic regenerative evaporative cooler consists of several sets of a dry channel and a wet channel. A part of the air from the dry channel is redirected into the wet channel where it is cooled by evaporation of water mist from an ultrasonic atomiser. Air flowing through dry channels is pre-cooled by heat transfer between wet and dry channels, without changing its humidity. In this cooler, the conventional hygroscopic layer for wetting the plate surface is replaced with the water mist. It is observed that the performance of the cooling system significantly depends on the channel spacing, channel length, inlet airflow rate and extraction ratio, and marginally depends upon feed water temperature. The room cooling capacity is eminently responsive to both air mass flow rate and extraction ratio. The maximum available room cooling capacity of 339.8 W is obtained for the optimal values of 0.0488 kg/s mass flow rate of air and 0.37 extraction ratio. The prototype achieved wet-bulb effectiveness values as high as 1.15 and delivered more than 10℃ temperature drop. Practical application: An ultrasonic regenerative evaporative cooler can be coupled with a desiccant dehumidification unit for use in hot and humid climate to achieve comfort condition utilising less energy and feed water when compared to the vapour compression refrigeration system. From this prototype researchers and engineers can develop, by combining desiccant regenerators and evaporative coolers which use ultrasonic method for low-temperature dehydration of desiccant substance. Solar thermal energy can also be directly utilised for marginally heating the desiccant substance during the regeneration process. Overall, this system can contribute to the development of energy efficient buildings.

Abstract:

In the present study the existing direct evaporative coolers (DEC) is modified in such a way that DEC consume less amount of water and provide better cooling effect. In desert area, water consumption by air cooler is a serious problem. Therefore, the present study addressed this issue and primary objective of the study is to minimize the consumption of water. For this purpose, the property of the endothermic reaction is utilized. There are few salts that produce endothermic reaction if it is diluted in water. Those salt crystals absorb heat from the surrounding environment (water) and ultimately the temperature of the overall solution gets reduced. This cold solution is then passed through honeycomb cooling pad, as a result more amount of air can be cooled using the same volume of water as compared to the traditional air-cooler. Ammonium Chloride (NH4Cl), Ammonium Nitrite (NH4NO3) salts satisfy the basic criteria for the endothermic reaction but NH4Cl will be more useful to use in the air-coolers, as Ammonium Nitrite is costlier and also hazardous. A salt water separator arrangement also attached with modified air-cooler which will help to regenerate Ammonium Chloride crystal from solution with the help of solar energy. In this study, firstly discussed about proposed design of an air-cooler system, which is able to nicely handle chemical solution. Then compared the study with experimental outcome which have been carried out with and without using salt. From the result it has been observed that modified design of air cooler has great potential to improve the traditional air cooler in terms of cooling effect and water consumption.

Abstract:

Statement of the problem. The air supplied to the premises during the hot season must be cooled to comfortable temperatures. Due to the fact that additional energy consumption for this cooling is not provided, it is possible to use an evaporative-type air cooler. However, the currently known results of experimental and theoretical studies of such devices do not allow their design, which prevents their spread. The structure of such an apparatus is considered and its theoretical and experimental studies are carried out, the results of which can be used for engineering calculation and design of such apparatus.Results. An evaporative-type air cooler designed by the authors for ventilation systems is described. A theoretical and experimental study of the air cooler has been carried out. Analytical relationships were obtained for determining the time of movement of the material checker in the "wet" chamber of the apparatus, the temperature of the cooled air and the temperature of the checker in any section of the circulation loop. Empirical relationships have been obtained for the efficiency coefficient of the cooler and its hydraulic resistance. Conclusions. The obtained dependencies will serve as the basis for the development of a methodology for the design calculation of indirect-evaporative air coolers with a moving fluidized bed in the field of centrifugal forces.

Abstract:

This study investigated the annual energy saving potential and system performance of two different evaporative cooling-based liquid desiccant and evaporative cooling-assisted air conditioning systems. One system used an indirect and direct evaporative cooler with a two-stage package to match the target supply air point. The other was equipped with a single-stage, packaged dew-point evaporative cooler that used a portion of the process air, which had been dehumidified in advance. Systems installed with the two evaporative coolers were compared to determine which one was more energy efficient and which one could provide better thermal comfort for building occupants in a given climate zone, using detailed simulation data. The detailed energy consumption data of these two systems were estimated using an engineering equation solver with each component model. The results showed that the liquid desiccant and dew-point evaporative-cooler-assisted 100% outdoor air system (LDEOAS) resulted in approximately 34% more annual primary energy consumption than that of the liquid desiccant and the indirect and direct evaporative-cooler-assisted 100% outdoor air system (LDIDECOAS). However, the LDEOAS could provide drier and cooler supply air, compared with the LDIDECOAS. In conclusion, LDIDECOAS has a higher energy saving potential than LDEOAS, with an acceptable level of thermal comfort.

Abstract:

A simple analytical method, based on the method of Parker and Treybal (1961) for evaporative coolers, was developed to predict the performance of evaporative condensers. The transfer coefficients of the model were predicted from standard correlations in the literature or those determined by Parker and Treybal for evaporative coolers. Field tests were performed on an evaporative condenser and the measured and predicted heat loads and recirculating water temperature were compared. It was found that the heat load was underpredicted by about 30 percent and the water temperature by 3°C. A change in Uo of a factor of 1.9 adequately predicts both the heat load and sump temperature.

Abstract:

The purpose of the study is the creation of a new generation of evaporative air coolers, providing a reduction in the limit of evaporative cooling from the temperature of the wet thermometer to the dew point of the incoming air stream. The goal was achieved due to the exclusion of traditional refrigeration vapor compression equipment from air conditioning systems. The result of theoretical and experimental studies of low-temperature evaporative air coolers was the development of circuit solutions for evaporative low-temperature coolers in an autonomous form. The analysis was carried out taking into account modern solutions (patents) and publications in leading foreign scientific publications of recent years. The authors carried out an analysis of the danger of moisture "recondensation" that is characteristic specifically for the processes of low-temperature evaporative cooling of air. The authors made recommendations to prevent this phenomenon, leading to a sharp decrease in cooling efficiency. The authors carried out a series of experimental studies of hydroaerodynamics and heat and mass transfer processes in low-temperature air coolers. The values of the "delay" of the liquid in the packed layer were determined. These data make it possible to calculate the real wetting of the surface of the packed layer, which are fundamentally important when switching to multi-channel packed structures of polymer materials. The results obtained allow us to expand the field of practical use of evaporative cooling methods, for example, to achieve air comfort parameters in the air conditioning system with a developed, more effective than the traditional, circuit design.

Abstract:

the benefits and advantages of an evaporative cooler, also known as swamp cooler, air cooler, or desert cooler include inexpensive price and lower energy consumption, as well as easier and inexpensive installation and maintenance, when compared to traditional air conditioners; and suitability for use in dry and arid climates, especially during hot and dry weather conditions. On the other hand, the disadvantages of an evaporative cooler center primarily on the negative impacts of too much humidification. These disadvantages translate further to more specific limitations and drawbacks. For example, using an evaporative cooler for prolonged period of time or under a hot and humid weather increase healthrelated risks such as respiratory distress, as well as the susceptibility of wood-based, paper-based, and electronic products. Evaporative cooling has both advantages and disadvantages, and the choice rests with the individual Homeowner. Therefore, the consumers should investigate all the alternatives and then make the right decision based on technical specifications, cost preference, lifestyle and individual priorities.

Abstract:

The construction of evaporative coolers in remote areas can increase the longevity of vegetables, improving food security and the local economy of small farmers in remote, impoverished communities without access to electricity. This work presents a 1:1 scale prototype of an 8 m3 (2.1 × 2.1 × 2.3 m) stabilized adobe evaporative cooler, with a design based on the appropriate technology framework, and it was built as a chamber using double adobe walls, filled with wet sand, to induce evaporative cooling. Furthermore, the paper presents the prototype’s performance evaluation. The tests were carried out in the dry and wet states, with different volumes of water. The results show good performance compared with other prototypes, although the optimum watering volume could not be determined because of the high climate variance (outside temperature and humidity) that prevented the repetition of the experiments in identical operating conditions. Stabilized adobe proved to be a good choice for use in the cooler, even when subject to moisture accumulation, indicating an estimated long lifetime for the cooler. The data obtained about the efficiency of evaporative cooling show that the cooler, as expected, has its best performance on the hottest and driest days, reducing the internal temperature (up to 13.24 °C) and managing to keep the internal humidity. The cost, efficiency, durability, and replicability make the proposed evaporative cooler a feasible solution for food preservation.

Abstract:

Storage and marketing of camel milk in arid lands of Kenya is hampered by lack of cold storage facilities. This problem can be alleviated by using storage structures incorporating evaporative cooling whose performance depends on climatic conditions. The objective of this work was to develop an artificial neural network (ANN) to predict cooled milk temperature and cooling efficiency of a locally fabricated cooler. Data were obtained from the cooler which was tested under various experimental conditions. Using some of the experimental data for training, a three-layer feed-forward ANN model based on back propagation Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm was developed using the Neural Network Toolbox for MATLAB®. The optimal model had a 4-4-2 structure with sigmoid transfer function in both layers. The inputs of the model were ambient dry bulb temperature, wet bulb temperature, wind speed and temperature of drip water, whereas the outputs were cooled milk temperature and cooling efficiency. The experimental data set (n=165) was randomly divided into training (75%) and testing (25%) sub-sets. The performance of the ANN predictions was evaluated by comparing the predicted and experimental results. The predictions agreed well with experimental values with mean squared error of 10.2, mean relative error of 4.02% and correlation coefficients in the range of 0.86-0.93. This study reveals that, as an alternative to conventional modelling techniques, the ANN approach can be used successfully for predicting the performance of locally fabricated camel milk storage structures incorporating evaporative cooling in arid pastoral areas of Kenya. The model can be used as a design tool to estimate the sizing and performance of future coolers, as it allows the prediction of the performance of hypothetical coolers designed without a need for time demanding experimentation. This can aid in up-scaling the technology.

Abstract:

After harvesting, fruits will change due to physiological, physical, chemical, and microbiological influences, and they are living materials. Therefore, it is necessary to know how to harvest and handle fresh fruits and their storage conditions to handle the fruits after harvesting so that the quality of the products can be maintained. One of the first treatments in the fruit cold chain is evaporative cooling. In order to get an evaporative cooling system that has an even temperature distribution, it is necessary to make a spatial model when designing an evaporative cooling system using CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics). The objectives of this research are: (1) design of direct flow type evaporative cooling systems and (2) test the performance of direct flow type evaporative coolers. This research method uses design methods, experiments, and computer simulations. The results showed the performance of the evaporative cooler system in the scenario with the roof on, the highest effectiveness value was 1.198, the highest approximation value was 2.832, and the highest range value was 4.589. In the scenario without a roof on the evaporative cooler system, the highest effectiveness value was 1.767, the highest approach value was 2.139, and the highest range value was 4.835. The CFD analysis in the scenario with a roof had the highest temperature value of 25.9 ° C and the lowest temperature of 21.9 ° C, while the CFD analysis in the scenario without roof had the highest temperature of 23.7 ° C and the lowest temperature of 20.4 ° C.

Abstract:

In hot climatic conditions, increased energy consumption toward cooling has led to the development of evaporative coolers. The performance of evaporative cooler depends on the various material and operating parameters. Type of material selected for cooling pad is the most important factor among them. In this study, various types of cooling pad materials have been discussed based on their potential benefits, influence on the cooling performance like characteristics wettability, porosity, water holding capacity and cost. It is seen that organic- and fiber-based materials have been extensively used, whereas the studies related to materials based on plastics and metals are limited. Ideal material properties to be possessed by a good pad material have been discussed. Prospects and future scope for further research have been identified. Hence, this review paper certainly throws some light on the selection criteria for a potential alternative evaporative cooling pad material that shows the maximum cooling performance and helps achieve sustainable cooling in buildings.

Abstract:

In this study, the mathematical model equations for solid desiccant system integrated with indirect evaporative coolers with Maisotsenko - Cycle are presented. The authors chose the modified ε–NTU method to describe heat and mass transfer processes in regenerative indirect evaporative cooler and desiccant wheel. The models based on the ε–NTU method show satisfactory agreement with experimental results. That is why this method allows to analyze and develop the performance of solid desiccant systems. In this study, the models allowed to prove that solid desiccant system with an additional heat exchanger before the desiccant wheel (System 1) obtains higher thermal COP values, higher humidity ratio drop and lower supply airflow temperatures in comparison to system with only one heat exchanger after the desiccant wheel (System 2).

Abstract:

Evaporative cooling is one of the techniques to lower the ambient air temperature according to the requirements. The technique includes the injection of moisture in the coming air, thus increasing its specific humidity. This technique can cool the air up to wet bulb temperature of the incoming air. In the recent past, the techniques are developed to lower the temperature of air without addition of moisture in the incoming air. These techniques demonstrate that the incoming air temperature can be approached near the dew point temperature of the incoming air. The present paper essentially focuses on the recent theoretical and experimental research of dew point evaporative coolers. Different flow configurations of heat exchange mediums, optimization of geometrical parameters, performance parameters (wet bulb and dew point effectiveness), energy efficiency ratio and energy saving potential are the key elements to study the prospects of dew point evaporative coolers over the conventional refrigeration systems operated by mechanical means. Dew point evaporative cooling technology is environmental friendly and has the potential in reducing the impact on earth due to global warming.

Abstract:

Abstract: This review paper is a study on various methods of performance improvement in domestic refrigeration systems, based on the vapor compression refrigeration VCRS cycle. Here air-cooled, water-cooled, fog cooled, evaporatively cooled condensers and nano-fluid lubricant /coolant methods their working and efficiency are reviewed, compared, analyzed and presented. The paper inspects the work done by different researchers for the maximization of heat loss from condenser & compressor and bringing about necessary modifications to reduce the overall power consumption of domestic refrigerators by improving Coefficient of Performance (COP). Numerous works have been done on improving the heat dissipation capacity of condenser but using nano-fluid in lubricant base as refrigerant and in the compressor shell as coolant is a new technology. Nano-fluid increase heat transfer due the high conductivity nano particles. It has been observed that water cooled condensers and compressors with nano-lubricants/coolants give the best performance improvements but they suit better for big or large refrigeration systems like centralized air conditioning systems or cold storage warehousing, whereas air cooled and evaporative condensers are optimal for small scale or low power appliances like domestic refrigerators, water coolers or split air conditioners to reduce overall power consumption by increasing the COP.

In this paper, a method for the determination of the efficiency and limitations of the evaporative cooling process is presented. Ceramic is employed as a packing material in the evaporative equipment. It is shown that the experimental efficiency of the ceramic packing is 10-20% higher as compared to packings made of aluminum foil and multichannel polycarbonate plates because of the absence of common liquid film on the packing surface, and due to the absolute wettability of the ceramic packing. Heat and mass transfer equipment for desiccant-evaporative cooling systems (direct and indirect evaporative coolers, cooling tower) utilizing ceramic structures has been developed.

Abstract:

In order to promote the engineering application of indirect evaporative cooling (IEC) in the field of building air conditioning, as well as reduce air conditioning energy consumption and carbon emissions, this paper proposes a fresh air unit using indirect evaporative cooling to achieve heat recovery from exhaust air, which gives the recommended values of air and spray water operation parameters. The indirect evaporative cooler heat and mass transfer mathematical model and numerical solution procedure were made. In summer outdoor design conditions, the fresh air outlet state parameters, cooling capacity, fresh air cooling load, wet bulb efficiency and enthalpy efficiency were numerically solved for thirty typical cities from five climate zones of China. In addition, also based on the model results for the cities in China, two representative operating conditions points of medium and high humidity were selected. Eight models of fresh air unit coolers in the air volume range of 1000–10,000 m3/h commonly used in engineering were simulated to obtain the optimal heat transfer area and size selection of ERIEC heat exchangers for fresh air units, and economic analysis was performed. The results show that the wet bulb efficiency ranges from 0.67–0.98, and increases as the outdoor design wet bulb temperature decreases; the enthalpy efficiency ranges from 0.76–1.29, and increases as the outdoor design wet bulb temperature increases; and the fresh air load that the exhaust air heat recovery type indirect evaporative cooler can bear ranges from 55–100%, which could largely decrease the cold load of the matched surface cooler. As demonstrated, the energy-saving effect is remarkable.
