Abstract

This chapter deals with the design principles and practice of an evaporative cooling system. The design of an evaporative cooling system consists of capacity design, cooling conditions (temperature and relative humidity), determination of loads, iterative process to determine airflow velocity, air flow rate, and solving differential equations based on energy and mas equations to obtain desired cooling. The theoretical design in this chapter is based on the farmers’ requirements for an evaporative coolant structure unit is based on the farmers’ requirements. Therefore, it contains a practical application of the design procedure and principles for a solar powered evaporative cooling storage chamber of 26.92m3 capacity for the storage of tomatoes. The working principle of the design was based on solar energy and evaporative cooling by increasing the relative humidity inside the storage chamber to control the storage environment.
