辐射冷却系统已被证明是一种低能耗的建筑冷却系统。本研究描述了在辐射冷却系统中使用冷却塔来提高系统的整体效率。针对印度不同气候区的15个城市，对冷却塔在辐射冷却系统中的应用进行了全面的模拟可行性研究。结果表明，在夏季，除暖湿外的不同气候区的湿球温度（WBT）都适合于冷却塔与辐射冷却系统的集成。 在这些气候条件下，冷却塔平均可提供24°C（75.2°F）至27°C（80.6°F）的水。为了实现节能潜力，从能耗方面比较了三种不同的辐射冷却系统配置。与冷却塔集成的辐射冷却系统的不同配置有:（1）为地板、墙壁和天花板安装的管状装置提供冷冻水。（2） 为壁挂式和天花板安装的表格安装提供冷冻水。在这种布置中，还使用了一台单独的冷却器，以提供16°C（60°C）的冷冻水。 8°F）至落地式管状安装。（3） 为壁挂式制表装置提供冷冻水，并使用单独的冷却器为落地式和天花板式制表装置提供16°C（60.8°F）的冷冻水。在所有三种配置中，还耦合了一个专用的室外空气系统，用于除湿和通风。模拟传统的全空气系统作为基线，比较这些配置，以评估节能潜力。引用:2016年年度会议，密苏里州圣路易斯，会议论文

Radiant cooling system has proven to be a low energy consumption system for building cooling needs. This study describes the use of cooling tower in radiant cooling system to improve the overall system efficiency. A comprehensive simulation feasibility study of the application of cooling tower in radiant cooling system was performed for the fifteen cities in different climatic zones of India. It was found that in summer, the wet bulb temperature (WBT) of the different climatic zones except warm-humid is suitable for the integration of cooling tower with radiant cooling system. In these climates, cooling tower can provide on average 24°C (75.2°F) to 27°C (80.6°F) water. In order to achieve the energy saving potential, three different configurations of radiant cooling system have been compared in terms of energy consumption. The different configurations of the radiant cooling system integrated with cooling tower are: (1) provide chilled water to the floor, wall and ceiling mounted tubular installation. (2) provide chilled water to the wall and ceiling mounted tabular installation. In this arrangement a separate chiller has also been used to provide chilled water at 16°C (60.8°F) to the floor mounted tubular installation. (3) provide chilled water to the wall mounted tabular installation and a separate chiller is used to provide chilled water at 16 °C (60.8°F) to the floor and ceiling mounted tabular installation. A dedicated outdoor air system is also coupled for dehumidification and ventilation in all three configurations. A conventional all-air system was simulated as a baseline to compare these configurations for assessing the energy saving potential.
