Abstract
A rotating plate misting fan (RPMF) capable of delivering cooling to industrial environments including loading bays for docked trailers, includes a rotating plate assembly configured to eliminate or minimize water collection in the environment area and a controller configured to automatically adjust a vapor rate and fan speed of the fan as a function of distance to objects in proximity to the rotating plate misting fan and psychrometric parameters.
Claims13
A cooling system, comprising:
- a water supply;
- at least one rotating plate and a housing receiving the plate;
- each said plate having a surface to which water is provided and an edge of the plate where droplets of mist are expelled;
- a hub mounted on a shaft having a longitudinal axis about which the rotating plate rotates;
- a flat surface positioned behind the rotating plate, extending outward beyond the peripheral edge of the rotating plate in a radial direction;
- a range sensor, a humidity sensor and a temperature sensor;
- a fan mounted behind the housing;
- and
- a controller configured to automatically adjust a vapor rate and fan speed as a function of distance to objects in proximity to the rotating plate and psychrometric parameters.
