Natural Air Conditioning System - Eco-Cooler
Abstract
The main problem faced by the air conditioning system is emission of harmful gases, Energy consumption, Environmental Impact, Maintenance Requirements, Health Issues, etc. If refrigerant is released from a conditioning system due to a leakage, it affects the environment badly, contributing to ozone depletion and global warming. Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) can be released from building materials, furnishings, and some AC units, contributing to poor indoor air quality and potential health effects. The Eco Cooler outlines the principles and mechanisms by which nature regulates temperature and humidity, providing a sustainable model for temperature control. Such systems often help reduce the temperature of the room, cabin and lab, etc, which enhances our indoor system without any harmful effect on the human body. As global temperatures rise due to climate change, the need for sustainable and energy-efficient cooling solutions is becoming more urgent. Conventional air conditioning systems, while effective, are energy-intensive and contribute significantly to environmental degradation. The Eco-Cooler is a low-cost, passive cooling technology that utilises evaporative cooling and natural airflow principles to reduce indoor temperatures without the need for electricity. Through this, we explore the design, functionality, and potential impact of Eco-Cooler as a solution to mitigate heat stress in both urban and rural settings.
