Hollow Fiber Membrane-Based Evaporative Cooling Systems covers the principles, applications, and optimization strategies of the evaporative cooling method. It demonstrates how this technology is a promising solution for fulfilling substantial cooling needs while reducing energy consumption.The book explores how the hollow fiber membrane-based evaporative cooler can solve the problems of droplet drift, mold growth, and air–water cross-contamination in conventional direct evaporative coolers. Due to the adaptability of this technology, it has the potential to satisfy the demand for sustainable thermal management across various domains, including data centers, electronic devices, agricultural settings, and industrial processes.This book will benefit researchers and graduate students studying advanced cooling systems, low-carbon technologies, and membrane materials, as well as industry professionals involved in advancing energy-efficient HVAC systems.Addresses the pressing need for sustainable cooling solutionsBridges the gap between theoretical concepts and practical implementationDiscusses an emergent, innovative solution for energy-efficient thermal controlInvestigates practical applications from building space cooling to industrial process refrigerationIncludes several case studies on an evaporative water cooler and an aircooling application
