Coolerado Air conditioning 6 tons using 600 watts
A new evaporative cooling technology can deliver cooler supply air temperatures than either direct or indirect evaporative cooling systems, without increasing humidity. The technology, known as the Coolerado Cooler™ has been described as an "ultra cooler" because of its performance capabilities relative to other evaporative cooling products. Coolerado Cooler™ systems evaporate water in a secondary (or working) airstream, which is discharged in multiple stages. No water or humidity is added to the primary (or product) airstream in the process. This approach takes advantage of the thermodynamic properties of air, and it applies both direct and indirect cooling technologies in an innovative cooling system that is drier than direct evaporative cooling and cooler than indirect cooling. The technology also uses much less energy than conventional vapor compression air-conditioning (A/C) systems and therefore can be a cost effective and energy saving technology. Performance tests have shown that the efficiency of the Coolerado Cooler™ is 1.5 to 4 times higher than that of conventional vapor compression cooling systems, while it provides the same amount of cooling. This technology significantly reduces electric demand for cooling and can provide energy and cost efficient solutions to the systemic degeneration of precious natural resources, and climatic realities of global campaigns. The technology uses a water-fueled cooling system powered solely with fan energy to provide more cooling with less energy. Incorporating this concept with multiple purges of moist secondary/working air creates a staged indirect evaporative cooling process. This process, known as the Maisotsenko Cycle, is the innovation that led to the Coolerado Cooler™ receipt of the prestigious R&D 100 Award from R&D Magazine in 2004. The Coolerado Cooler™ is modular in design and its capacity configurations range up to 500 ton commercial units. With modifications, the Coolerado Cooler™ can be integrated into a pre-cooling system for ventilation air in new or existing heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning systems (HVAC) or into vehicle A/C units for the transportation industries as well as the military industries operating globally. For example, current A/C units on armored vehicles in Afghanistan and Iraq take away vital power from the engine to keep the 120° outside temperatures from causing injuries to the soldiers jeopardizing the supply of troop's vital resources. With Coolerado Cooler™ technology, vehicle cabs will be able to maintain a constant cool temperature, even with the engine off, and will give the engine more power and decrease emissions by more than 50%. Coolerado Cooler™ can therefore be retrofitted in existing mobile military operations including transportation vehicles, tents, temporary mobile buildings and other such previously ineffective components of military and non-military operations.
