Cooling of heat-carrying fluid in air conditioner

摘要

A device for cooling a circulating heat-carrying fluid has the input air to the heat exchanger 1 sucked in by a fan 2 over cooling chambers 4 to 6 at the side. By means of atomiser nozzles 10, water vapour is generated and the heat is withdrawn from the input air. Non-vaporised water can flow back downwards into the collection tank 8 where it is returned to the nozzles by means of a water pump 9. Evaporated water is replaced by means of a float valve 11. The cooling chambers have V-shaped sides using stone plates 7 whose surface has holes in which water droplets can evaporate.
