Case Studies• A typical BTS with L=4 m, W=3 m, and H=2.8 m• QIT = 4.4 kW (on average)• UEnv = 1 W/m2K• Copenhagen (Denmark), San Francisco (USA), Shanghai (China) and
Dubai (UAE)• Weather data: ASHRAE handbook

Conclusion• A hybrid cooling system including an air conditioner
and a thermosiphon with individual loops is suggested to reduce total energy consumption for a typical BTS
• This system can be operated in three modes: air conditioning, thermosiphon, and dual
• The potential of saving energy is remarkable and by increasing the set point temperature the share of air conditioning mode is reduced while the share of thermosiphon is increased
