There are a number of factors which can influence the design engineer and owner/operator to utilize evaporative cooling, including climate, water quality, and type of application. This program provides: (1) useful information from research to assist in minimizing water quality issues and usage; and (2) case studies on how the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) has effectively utilized evaporative cooling in many of its facilities, and will review its strategies and criteria used to determine the best evaporative technologies for specific applications.
