Economic influence and implications in the pluvial water used in the systems of evaporative-desiccant applied in air conditioning

Resumen

The world-wide appeal for the ecological awareness, places the studies of engineering directed for the echo-efficient concern. In this paper the use of pluvial water is evaluated in an air conditioning system, composed by an evaporative cooling associated to a desiccant system. The evaporative-desiccant system uses the evaporation of water through the passage of an air flow reducing the dry bulb temperature. These systems have great potential to the use in places where the humidity of air is low and with the application of dehumidifiers of air, becoming quite enough efficient for the human comfort in regions where the relative humidity of air is high. In these conditions, that is to say, regions which of high pluviometric index, the use of the pluvial water in these systems is favored. This work analyzes the implications techniques of the system of the use pluvial water and also analyzes the results gotten in the costs of its implantation.
