Abstract

An evaporative cooling system includes a housing with an outlet in one wall and a pair of inlets in opposing other walls. A pair of endless belts are individually disposed inside the respective inlets with each belt being of a material to which a liquid may cling and transparent to air flow so as to achieve evaporation. A portion of each belt extends through a reservoir and the belts are driven in movement therethrough. Blower apparatus disposed between the belts draws air through the inlets and the belts and exhausts the air through the outlet.
