Case Study 2 - Horse Stables

 

Practical problem:
How well will direct, indirect evaporative cooling work for horse housing facilities in my climate region?
   
Simulation problem:
Few user friendly design and simulation tools were available that could easily simulate the fully integrated hourly performance of any evaporative cooling system together with the thermal performance of any building in any climate.
   
Results:
The effect in horse stables can be viewed in a graph.
