This important handbook is your up-to-the-minute definitive guide on energy-efficient evaporative air conditioning technologies and their applications. 

Illustrating in full detail how operational savings of 50 to 75 percent can be achieved with evaporative cooling technologies compared to equivalent electric-based systems. 

Thorough in scope, the book addresses both the technical aspects of evaporative cooling, as well as a broad range of specific commercial and industrial applications.


Topics include cost analysis, technology and equipment options, application guidelines, and operational and performance characteristics.

The third edition adds a new chapter which shows how evaporative cooling can be integrated into large HVAC systems, with discussion of:

  • achievable savings
  • maintenance costs
  • cooling tower and finned coil indirect cooling
  • wet bulb economizers
  • pre-cooling condensed air
  • makeup air and return air
  • humidity control, and more,
  • including sample calculations as well as demonstration and engineering data.
