| dc.description.abstract | The tropical climatic conditions that prevail in the countries located close to the equator generally has warm humid climatic conditions. This high humidity generally results due to the relatively high moisture content in the atmosphere. It is shown that warm humid climatic conditions can still offer a good possibility for the use of evaporative cooling when the beneficial effect of evaporative cooling is coupled with physiology cooling effect that is available with enhanced indoor air qualities | en_US |
