The air conditioner employs the energy of water’s transition between phases: evaporation ensures cooling; condensation ensures heating. Water is an ecologically clean product, and the energy of water’s transition between phases is more than that of any other coolers. An aqueous air conditioner is more efficient that a freon one. Destined for air cooling down to temperatures close to that of dew point, i.e. for ensuring some comfort parameters indoors. It may be used as the first stage of air heating, together with heat pumps.
Environmentally friendly (employs water in stead of freon).
Low net power consumption, which is 5 to 8 times less than net power consumption of freon air conditioners.
High reliability.The air conditioner’s maintenance may be implemented by a user and does not require any special skills or knowledge.
Research efforts have been undertaken comprising both benchmark trials and laboratory tests. Several factories are currently engaged in manufacture of trial amounts of air conditioners employing water as a coolant.The documentation required for commencement of the patenting procedure has been worked out. The existing patents for aqueous air conditioners in the USA were elaborated in Odessa.
