Stay Cool in the Hot Desert
we start thinking seriously about ways to stay cool
When we were planning to build
a renewable energy powered home,
cooling our home was the big question.
We had no doubt our new home;
would be powered with wind and solar.
The domestic hot water system
would be a passive solar system.
We would use solar for space heating the structure, but how do we cool the home using renewable energy? Air conditioning is not practical for a renewable energy powered home.
Because
the compressor and blowers consume a lot of energy. Evaporative coolers work well and use considerably less energy, but the blower still requires lots of energy. Plenty of books and information discuss all types of solar heating, but little to none describe passive or low energy use cooling.
Finding A Better Way
low energy use passive cooling system —.
Cool Towers.
A cool tower requires
no blowers or fans
o move the cool air.
The only power required is for a small DC pump
to circulate water over the pads A cool tower the perfect answer
for cooling
