Experimental Investigation on the Performance of Modified Air Cooler
Authors
Abstract
In the Vidharbha region of Maharashtra, India, the months of June and July
are typically very important because the high relative humidity and dry bulb temperature
are uncomfortable for people. The "Modified Air-cooler" was developed in an effort to
meet human needs while taking into account comfort and affordability. Modified air-
cooler testing has been done as part of an exploratory inquiry. It has been noted that the
DBT values for indoor and outdoor environments vary by 2.86°C on average. As a result
of the mud pot's natural evaporation process, the temperature inside the room is cooled
more effectively than it is outside. Additionally, the WBT measurements for indoor and
outdoor conditions vary by 2.62°C. It has been noted that there is a 2.2% variation in
relative humidity when compared to the outside environment, which suggests that the
current system is not responsible for the increase in humidity that occurs in the month of
June and July, also the system is not contributing in global warming which is a major
findings of this research.
