Abstract

Air conditioner is commonly used in assuring thermal comfort for the humans, but it is very expensive since it has high initial cost and it consumes large amount of electricity. Also, refrigerant used in air conditioners are harmful for environment as they are responsible for global warming and ozone layer depletion. This paper aims to review the possibility of designing and fabricating an air conditioner using evaporative cooling. This method is opted to achieve an economical design which is affordable, eco-friendly and consumes less energy, since evaporation is done by earthen pots and there is no need for compressor. Though this method consumes a considerable amount of time to get the required result but it is as effective as any traditional air conditioner.
