MULTI-STAGE WATER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM FOR CROSS-FLOW EVAPORATIVE HEAT EXCHANGER
A heat exchange system includes a first heat exchanger subassembly, a second heat exchanger subassembly, a first nozzle configured to spray fluid at the first heat exchanger subassembly, and a second nozzle configured to spray fluid at the second heat exchanger subassembly. The heat exchange system further includes memory storing controller-executable instructions and a controller configured to execute the instructions, which cause the controller to activate the first nozzle when an outdoor temperature is below a threshold temperature, and activate the first nozzle and the second nozzle when the outdoor temperature is above the threshold temperature.
PORTABLE MISTER DEVICE ASSEMBLY KIT
A mister kit provides components to assemble as needed and where needed misters of customizable configurations capable of on-site assembly, connectable with local business and residential water sources, and with the ability to be secured to nearby structures.
Air handling unit and method for controlling such an air handling unit
An air handling unit (1) for cooling down an indoor airflow (A1) including at least one fan (3) circulating the indoor airflow inside the air handling unit (1) and a first and a second cooling subsystems (5, 15) including a refrigeration apparatus (50, 150) comprising an evaporator (500, 1500) and a condenser (504, 1504), a first water circuit (52, 152) connected to the condenser and comprising at least one outside heat exchanger (520, 1520) exposed to outside air (A5, A15), a second water circuit (56, 156) connected to the evaporator and comprising at least one indoor heat exchanger (560, 1560) exposed to the indoor airflow, water connection means (62, 64, 162, 164) for selectively connecting, depending on a temperature of the outside air.
VACUUM COOLING SYSTEM AND METHOD
A vacuum cooling system (10) having a first fluid (21) and a second fluid (70) circulating through the system (10) in separate cycles, said system (10) including a vacuum chamber (1) containing a portion (14) of said first fluid and a volume of gas (42) evaporated from said first fluid portion (14), a first pump means (7) for removing the gas volume (42) from the vacuum chamber (1) to create a vacuum in said vacuum chamber (1), a means for moving (8) said first fluid (21) into said vacuum chamber (1) to replenish the first fluid portion (14) in said vacuum chamber (1), and heat exchanger means (2) for cooling said second fluid (70) over which air is blown in order to cool air in a space.
AIR CONDITIONING UNIT
An air conditioning unit includes a conditioning chamber, a fan with a fan air input and a fan air output, and an evaporative unit. The fan and the evaporative unit are arranged in the conditioning chamber. The fan draws in entry air to enter the air conditioning unit, then through the evaporative unit, to condition the entry air to produce conditioned air. Within the conditioning chamber, the fan is positioned and configured such that at least 30% of an area of the fan air output are positioned above an average top surface of the evaporative unit, and that air from the at least 30% of the area of the fan air output is directed towards a wall of the conditioning chamber prior to being redirected downwards and through the evaporative unit.
MULTI-UNIT SUPPORT DUCT SYSTEM
Multi-unit cooling systems and structures thereof for residential, commercial, or other buildings. In one embodiment, a support duct system comprises a support duct frame including a longitudinal axis and at least one mounting bracket support, each of the at least one mounting bracket support being movable relative to the longitudinal axis of the support duct frame; and at least one mounting bracket coupled to a corresponding one of the at least one mounting bracket support, each of the at least one mounting bracket being removably couplable to a corresponding cooling unit. Each of the cooling units is independently rotatable relative to the longitudinal axis of the support duct frame.
Cooling system
A cooling system and method including a cooling chamber with an air inlet, a water inlet, and a cooling fill disposed between the air inlet and the water inlet. The cooling fill configured to put more water surface area in contact with air. The cooling system also including a basin disposed on a side of the cooling fill that is opposite the water inlet, the basin configured to collect the water from the cooling fill. A precooler is included in combination with the basin, the precooler including a heat-mass exchanger in combination with the basin, a blower configured to provide pressurized air through the heat-mass exchanger, and an expansion device configured to depressurize the air after the heat-mass exchanger.
Modular waterside economizer for air-cooled chillers
A hydronic economizer module configured for use in a chiller system having a vapor compression cycle including a housing having at least a first air inlet. A heat exchanger assembly located within said housing. The heat exchanger includes at least one heat exchanger coil. A fan assembly includes at least one fan generally aligned with the at least one heat exchanger coil. At least one valve is movable between a plurality of positions to control a flow of fluid into said heat exchanger assembly. When said at least one valve is in a first position the economizer module is arranged in parallel with a component of the vapor compression cycle. When said at least one valve is in a second position the economizer module is arranged in series with said component of the vapor compression cycle.
Humidification systems
A humidification system including a water-delivery system, an air-delivery system, a control system, and at least one fog-generation system. In example forms, the system includes a water-and-air delivery bar, a fog-delivery block, and/or a tubing-and-track delivery system. In another example form, a humidification system includes a housing having a nozzle discharge body, an air inlet coupling having an air delivery conduit extending therethrough, and a water inlet coupling having a water delivery conduit extending therethrough, and further including means for providing heating and/or a consistent back-pressure and flowrate across multiple nozzles in a multi-nozzle array.
