Performance Study of Cooling Pads

Abstract:

The efficiency of an evaporative cooler on different cooling pads have been studied. Two type of cooling pads made of a curtain fabric and a raw cotton fabric were comparatively studied. The effect of blower speeds at 725, 1015 and 1450 RPM and water flow rate of 26.9 liters per minute were investigated. The results showed that an average of the different temperature between inlet and outlet were 2.9 oC and 1.7 oC for a curtain fabric and a raw cotton fabric, respectively. Saturation efficiency of the cooling pads made of a curtain fabric was in the ranges of 46.3 to 61.3% or represents an average of 54.8%, and 29.7 to 39.2% or represents an average of 33.2% for a raw cotton fabric.
