Evaporative cooling and the integration of water evaporation into vapor-compression air conditioning are key components of the water energy nexus. This seminar summarizes a body of current work that includes a direct analysis of the water consumption versus energy savings, a recent ASHRAE standard on evaporative pre-coolers for rooftop packaged equipment, numerous field studies of hybrid vapor-compression/evaporative-cooling equipment, and case studies of designs where the inclusion of indirect evaporative cooling reduced on-site water use.
