Abstract
An air conditioner includes an inlet; a suction channel through which air sucked from the inlet flows; a spray unit configured to spray water to be vaporized; a first channel through which first air to be cooled by heat of vaporization of water sprayed from the spray unit flows; a heat exchanger configured to exchange heat between the first air and the air flowing through the suction channel to cool the air flowing through the suction channel; wall body defining the first channel located downstream of the heat exchanger in a flow direction of the first air; and an electric device configured to generate heat with power consumption by the air conditioner. The electric device is thermally connected to the wall body.
