When I lived with my parents in New Mexico from 1956 to 1962, I learned that we cooled our house in the summer by adding heat energy brought in from outside, i.e., I figured out the difference between heat energy and temperature by puzzling over the working of the evaporative air conditioner on the roof of our house.
Some of the surface cooling would be caused by an increase in evaporative cooling due to the higher trade winds, but the vast majority of the surface cooling is caused by the upward shift in the thermocline, which is also related to the increase in trade winds.
Question is, how much heat is removed from the surface by radiation, air convection and evaporative cooling.
The evaporative, conductive and radiative processes combined then set up a thermal gradient causing an upward flow of energy from water to air from where that 1 mm layer touches the ocean bulk below, up across the cooler layer then to the Knudsen layer by reversing the normal (warm at the top and cool at the bottom) temperature gradient which exists from that 1 mm layer down to the ocean bottom.
This is the same as Configuration 1 except that SunTuf corrugated polycarbonate glazing has bee added over the absorber to see if the glazing improved efficiency by reducing absorber heat loss and reducing evaporative cooling from the open water channels.
So when an evaporative air cooler evaporates one litre of water it cools a room by about the same amount as running a simple 1kW heater would warm the room in three quarters of an hour.
D Cotton June 15, 2013 at 6:38 am The whole of the pseudo physics of greenhouse effects and assumed heating of the surface by back radiation (or «radiative forcing») is trying to utilise the Stefan - Boltzmann equation which only relates to bodies in a vacuum losing all their energy by radiation without any conduction or evaporative cooling.
The other three scenarios were chosen to test the impacts of likely trends in air conditioning equipment in the city: one for which all evaporative and free cooling systems were replaced by dry systems, and the other two designed on a future doubling of the overall air conditioning power but with different technologies.
These water bodies are fed by the recycled water from the sewage treatment plant and help in the creation of a microclimate through evaporative cooling.
Last, the combined respiration of the plants in the greenhouse - collectively an enormous evaporative surface - cools the air and helps to reduce the «heat island effect» created by the typical black tar roof.
«Clouds, which largely determine the geographic patterns of DTR, greatly reduce DTR by sharply decreasing surface solar radiation while soil moisture decreases DTR by increasing daytime surface evaporative cooling.
The evaporative cooling from wind passing by the wet canvas kept the water inside cool on the way to the swimming hole.
This leaves only the surface evaporative cooling, which is balanced by global precipitation, as the term to accommodate such an increase.
Mushroom spores are spread by air flow and many species of mushroom have a unique way of helping mother nature: they create their own little micro-breezes through evaporative cooling to help their spores move about.
