APPROACH TO WET BULB TEMPERATURE

Mist Cooling system ensures an approach of 0 to 1ºC to prevailing WBT with a temperature drop of 12 to 15ºC.

At times, MCS even reaches a temperature, which is a degree below prevailing WBT although we do not claim the same. This is theoretically not possible but can be explained with help of a natural phenomenon of formation of hailstones.

It is observed that hail-stones form only when summer is at its peak. They do not occur in monsoon although ambient temperatures in monsoon are lower than those  in summer. This is because when rain fall occurs in summer, the evaporation rate is extremely fast i.e, even faster than the rate of equilibrium. The water particle comes down at an immense velocity thus splitting into micron size particles. Due to this, water looses heat rapidly and ice is formed which comes down on earth as hailstone, even though ambient temperature are as high as 35 to 40ºC.

We have tried to create similar conditions in MCS where nozzles are so designed that water comes out whirling with an immense velocity and splits into micron size particles. Surface evaporation is very fast and water quickly looses heat to surrounding and temperatures below WBT are obtained mostly in summer.
