OSTI ID:6586492
A survey was made of the number and types of space cooling units currently used in residential and light commercial buildings in New Mexico to determine the existing use and trends with respect to evaporative coolers, refrigerated air conditioners, and natural ventilation for space cooling in the state. This information then provides a basis for determining the current and future energy conservation potential associated with each cooler type. Previous work is described. A test program, consisting of 3 buildings with evaporative coolers and three with refrigerated air conditioning systems, and the procedures are described. Data reduction and analytical procedures and programs for evaluating the performance of coolers and buildings are presented and results are analyzed. Predicted seasonal performance of evaporative coolers and refrigerated air conditioners is determined and computer models are described. Detailed conclusions and recommendations are presented. (MCW)
