Sustainable Cooling Technologies – Radiant Cooling
The participants are made aware of the environmental, spatial and structural implications of using this technology, in comparison to the conventional HVAC systems for building design. The different types of these cooling techniques, along with their application in different circumstances are also explained. The participants also are made aware that these techniques are commercially available and easily implementable, ‘sustainable’ and not alternative technologies. The environmental benefits of radiant and structure cooling technology are highlighted, since it reduces vapour compression. It is also explained how the partial addressing of cooling load is overcome by blending it
