Abstract
Air cooling systems for residential buildings are relatively inexpensive and easy to operate. In mechanical ventilation and air conditioning systems, the supply and exhaust of cooling air play an important role in the cooling process, that is, the correct selection of their position allows you to reduce energy consumption and increase cooling efficiency. Therefore, in order to ensure the required temperature regime in the room and effectively ventilate the room, it is necessary to conduct a thorough study of the air flow, air and temperature distribution in the room. To carry out these studies, the article presents an autonomous air cooling system with a combined solar photovoltaic module developed for air cooling systems for residential buildings.
