NATURAL COOLING

Evaporative Cooling – Efficient and Natural Cooling Solutions

Misting NozzleEvaporative  cooling is an energy-efficient and cost-effective method of temperature reduction. By forcing water through our specially designed high-pressure misting nozzles, we create an ultra-fine fog of water droplets with an average size of 50 microns or less.

These microscopic droplets rapidly absorb heat from the air and evaporate, transforming into water vapor. The energy (heat) required for this phase change is extracted from the surrounding environment, lowering the air temperature naturally.

Key Benefits of Evaporative Cooling:

  • Highly effective in dry climates – The lower the relative humidity, the greater the cooling potential.
  • Eco-friendly cooling – No refrigerants, low water usage, and reduced energy consumption.
  • Scalable solutions – Suitable for small residential setups to large industrial cooling applications.
  • Enhances air quality – Reduces airborne particles, creating a healthier indoor and outdoor environment.

Maximum Potential Temperature Drop

Evaporative Cooling ChartThe cooling effect of an evaporative cooling system depends on ambient temperature and relative humidity. The Psychrometric Chart (shown on the right) illustrates the relationship between temperature, humidity, and cooling efficiency.

Example Calculation:

  • If the ambient temperature is 90°F (32°C) with a 30% relative humidity, the maximum achievable temperature drop is 25°F (14°C).
  • Using a High-Efficiency Portable Cooler, the resulting air temperature could be as low as 65°F (18°C).

Relative humidity is a crucial factor in determining the effectiveness of evaporative cooling. The lower the relative humidity, the more moisture the air can absorb, leading to greater temperature drops.

During the hottest parts of the day, humidity levels are often at their lowest, making evaporative cooling an ideal solution in most geographical locations.

Evaporative Cooling vs. Standard Air Conditioning

Why Choose Evaporative Cooling?

Feature Evaporative Cooling Refrigerated Air Conditioning
Installation Cost 1/8 to 1/2 of A/C installation cost High initial investment
Operating Cost 1/4 of A/C operation cost High energy consumption
Energy Efficiency Uses only a fan and water pump Requires compressors, pumps, and blowers
Air Quality Constant fresh air circulation Recirculates the same air

Lower costs, better efficiency, and a natural cooling effect make evaporative cooling an excellent alternative to traditional A/C systems.

A LOOK BACK

The History of Misting and Fogging Technology

Misting technology, which started in the 1950s for agriculture, has since expanded into various industries. Today, both misting and fogging systems are vital in cooling, humidification, dust suppression, and odor control.

1950

The Beginning

Since the 1950s, misting technology was first developed and used in agriculture, primarily in greenhouses, to provide cooling and humidification for improved crop yields.
1980

Expanding Outdoors

Since the 1980s, the technology expanded into public and private outdoor spaces, including restaurants, theme parks, and sports venues, mainly for cooling purposes.
1990

Industrial Growth

Since the 1990s, misting systems began to be used in industrial sectors, particularly for dust suppression and odor control in industries such as mining, construction, and waste management.
2000

Evolving Technology

Since the 2000s, the technology has continued to evolve, becoming more efficient and widely used across industries for cooling, humidification, dust suppression, and odor control.
