摘要

This paper investigates application potential of the maisotsenko cycle (M-Cycle) evaporative air coolers in air conditioning systems in moderate climate (Poland is used as an example). Cross-flow M-Cycle heat and mass exchanger (HMX) was chosen as the most representative unit for this type of application. Analysis is based on the computer simulations performed during the peak day in summer (day when the highest cooling loads occur) and assumptions used in Polish standards for air conditioning systems. The obtained results show that evaporative cooling through Maisotsenko cycle has high application potential and allows to generate significant energy savings in compare to the systems equipped with standard heat recovery devices. The most favorable application for the M-Cycle in moderate climate is displacement ventilation, where proposed unit is able to cover almost all energy required by the air conditioning system.
