Cooling by exchange of latent heat from water sprays, jets of water, or wetted material.
cooling of the body by loss of the heat required to convert water liquid to vapor
A cooling system for aero-engines which makes use of the "latent heat of evaporation" by allowing the cooling fluid to boil, then condensing the steam from it and returning it to the cylinder jackets. The Rolls-Royce Goshawk engine of 1932 was designed on this principle, but was not really successful.
The cooling that occurs when heat from the air or compost pile material is used to evaporate water.
Loss of body heat by evaporation of fluid from the body's surface. 773
The physical process by which a liquid or solid is transformed into the gaseous state. For this process a mechanical device uses the outside air's heat to evaporate water that is held by pads inside the cooler. The heat is drawn out of the air through this process and the cooled air is blown into the home by the cooler's fan.
Evaporation of water by an air stream to reduce the air temperature.
cooling effect caused by air blowing across a moisture laden surface - see cooler - but also is the effect you feel if air is blown across your skin. Try it now, you have moisture on your skin and by blowing on it you will feel the cooling effect.
When water evaporates into the air, it has the effect of cooling the air. Evaporative cooling for poultry housing has been found feasible in all but the most humid climates. Water may be sprayed or fogged into the air, or blown over a medium saturated with water.
The absorption of heat from the atmosphere during evapotranspiration.
The adiabatic exchange of heat between air and a water spray or wetted surface. The water approaches the wet-bulb temperature of the air, which remains constant during its traverse of the exchanger.
Takes place when sweat evaporates from the skin. High humidity reduces the rate of evaporation and thus reduces the effectiveness of the body's primary cooling mechanism.
A process which removes heat from the body by changing liquid water to water vapour using heat from the skin surface (eg.sweating) or from respiratory surfaces (eg.panting)
Evaporative cooling is a physical phenomenon in which evaporation of a liquid, typically into surrounding air, cools an object or a liquid in contact with it. Latent heat describes the amount of heat that is needed to evaporate the liquid; this heat comes from the liquid itself and the surrounding gas and surfaces. When considering water evaporating into air, the wet bulb temperature, as compared to the air's dry bulb temperature, is a measure of the potential for evaporative cooling.
