[EnergyPlus_Support] Cool Tower & Roof Spray

[Tobias Maile <tobiasmaile@xxxxxxxx>]

Hey,

I am trying to model a so-called Cool Tower. That is basically a chimney 
that is connected to the lobby at ground level and has a wind catcher on 
top. There is also evaporative cooling in the tower through nozzles that 
spray water in the air. This cooler air is supposed to drive the air 
flow through the lobby. Does anyone have any ideas on how to account for 
this cooling effect in EnergyPlus?

My other question is related to a roof spray. Water is sprayed on the 
roof at nights to cool it if desired and to store it in a thermal 
storage tank. Any ideas on how to account for the cooling of the water 
through the spraying process?

Thanks.

Tobias
