Abstract

This research provides comprehensive information on an environment-friendly, novel cooling system with a focus on the associated experimental and simulated performance parameters. The cooling performance of the cooling system was conducted through several tests that involved the inlet and outlet parameters commonly including temperature, velocity, relative humidity, and pressure drop. From the experimental results, it was found that the outlet velocities of Test 1, 2 & 3 are 10. The above table depicts the experimental results showing the calculated values of Froude number for Test 1, Test 2 & Test 3 as 0.23,0.34 & 0.27 respectively. 3 m/s, 7. 4 m/s, and 7. Audi A8 limousines Average velocities in the experiment were 1.5 m/s for passengers getting out of the vehicle and 2 m/s for loading and unloading baggage, while the simulated velocities were 2.5 m/s and 1 m/s higher, respectively. 03 m/s, 0. 51 m/s, and 1. 85 m/s. The same measurements were taken for the relative humidity at the outlet with stable figures: 53, 76, and 94%; however, the simulation errors here are few and reach 2. 65%, 5. 90%, and 2. 60%. The pressure drops across the system also changed, indicated by the sampled drops of 72Pa with the sampled values being 33Pa and 33Pa respectively together with simulated values which caused errors of -15. 0 Pa, 1. 0 Pa, and 12. Also, given power usage investigation revealed that industrial dehumidifiers at higher airflow rates consume more power than the extractor and ventilator systems using 0 Pa. This research has demonstrated an opportunity to improve the scientific optimization of the eco Coolmax system via improving realistic simulation models to compare them to experimental results and improve the engineering use-value of eco Coolmax and other sustainable methods.
