Cooling Your Home with Fans and Ventilation DOE/GO-102001-1278 FS228 June 2001 Cooling Your Home with Fans and Ventilation You can save energy and money when Principles of Cooling you ventilate your home instead of using your air conditioner, except on the hottest Cooling the Human Body days.

The cooler your sur- roundings, the less heat you’ll attract, and the more of your own excess heat you’ll lose. Perspiration can be uncomfortable, and many people would prefer to stay cool without it. However, during hot weather and physical exercise, perspiration is the body’s powerful cool- ing mechanism. Ceiling fans distribute cool air, making cooling equipment more efficient.

Natural ventilation works best in climates with cool summers or cool nights and reg- ular breezes. Using Windows and Doors for Cross-Ventilation You can create natural cross-ventilation by opening your windows and doors, and adjusting the size and location of the open- ings to ventilate different parts of the home. Inlets and outlets located directly opposite each other cool only those areas in between, in the direct path of the airflow. You'll cool more of your home if you force the air to take a longer path between the inlet and outlet. Use smaller window openings for the inlets and larger open- ings for the outlets. This increases air speed and improves the cooling effect. Air from cooler, shaded outdoor areas provides the best intake air. Experiment with different patterns of win- dow venting to move fresh outside air Fig. 1 Use windows and doors for cross-ventilation. 2 through all the living areas of your home. This may involve leaving some windows closed if they interfere with air moving along a longer path through the home. Attic Ventilation Solar heat travels in through the roof and radiates into the attic. Attic ventilation reduces attic temperature 10 to 25 degrees and slows the transfer of heat into the living space. However, the most effective way to reduce attic heat is to prevent it from entering in the first place with a reflective roof. Also very important is having at least a foot of attic insulation.

INTRODUCTION Thermodynamic second law analysis can be employed to determine where losses occur in a given system. Inputs to this analysis include thermodynamic state information, mass flows, work transfers and heat exchange. Applications to vapor compression refrigeration and heat pump systems are outlined in references /1/ and /2/. However additional details of the processes are required to identify the nature of the losses. From this detailed information one can then begin to develop simple models useful in component or system thermodynamic optimization. A thermodynamic second law analysis is performed on an air cooled single stage mechanical vapor compression refrigeration system operating steadily under full load.
