Condair Group, a leading humidity control and evaporative cooling specialist, is organising a CIBSE-approved webinar entitled “Using humidifiers for evaporative cooling in AHUs” next month. 

 

The event, to be held on June 14, will see attendees learn the psychrometrics of evaporative cooling and also the three main strategies of AHU evaporative cooling (direct, indirect and exhaust-air indirect).

 

It will also analyse the energy consumption figures for three real-life case study projects that employed these strategies, and compare the latest evaporative cooling humidifier technologies.

 

Mahmoud Widyan, General Manager for Condair Middle East, and Dave Bull, Applications Manager for Condair Global Sales, will be leading the 45 minute session.

 

Widyan said: "A single adiabatic humidifier can provide up to 680kW of evaporative cooling to an AHU from as little as 0.3kW of consumed electrical energy."

 

"Their potential for delivering low energy cooling to an air handling unit is great and we frequently see this application being employed in modern AHU designs. This webinar is an invaluable chance for consultants and building designers to explore how humidifiers can be used in AHUs to take advantage of this low energy cooling method," he noted. 

 

"The case studies also provide a clear understanding, beyond the theory and physics, of the actual energy savings that can be enjoyed," he added.

 

The presentation has been CIBSE-approved and is therefore independently verified to be unbiased, up-to-date and technically accurate, said the statement from Condair. 

 

This accreditation also means attendees can accrue one hour CIBSE CPD (Continuous Professional Development) points should they wish, it added.-TradeArabia News Service
