This one-hour live presentation explores the history, media types, and advancements for MEP engineering applications. As data centers face rising thermal loads from AI and compute density, this session investigates evaporative cooling as an energy-efficient alternative to traditional chillers, especially in dry climates. We will compare different media types (cellulose, glass fiber, synthetic polymer), analyze key engineering tradeoffs such as pressure loss and water efficiency, and evaluate advanced systems.

The course will focus on smart misting principles and intelligent controls designed to lower compressor work, reduce water consumption, and solve common engineering challenges.
