I would like to start growing more, but I am a bit worried about flyovers, even though in my state they supposedly need a warrant to take heat readings. I got to thinking about how one could consume the heat, not just displace it as you do with air conditioning, but actually absorb the heat. I came up with the idea of using evaporation. Just as plants and animals sweat to keep themselves cool, there are high pressure mister systems that put out mist at 800-1000 psi creating 20 micron droplets, and all the mist evaporates, leaving no moisture or dripping. If you were to take air from 3 sets of lights, put them all into one 10 inch pipe, wich then vents into two pipes, into 4 PVC pipes, to 8, to 16 6' pipes, in which misters are installed every 10 inches. As evaporation consumes heat, the pipes would be venting very humid but much cooler air. Everything I know about thermodynamics says it should work, but what do you guys think?
