Abstract: A method of liquid delivery in an evaporative cooler having an assembly of plates may include delivering liquid from a fill tube to a first trough formed on a first plate of the assembly of plates, the first trough including a first perforation in fluid communication with a second trough formed on a second plate of the assembly of plates, the fill tube configured to deliver the liquid above the first perforation such that an exit point of the fill tube is not submerged in liquid at any point during liquid delivery or operation of the evaporative cooler, draining the liquid from the first trough to the second trough via the first perforation, and filling the second trough to an overflow level before permitting the liquid to exit the second trough via a second perforation, the overflow level defined by a bottom of the second perforation.

Abstract: In one embodiment, an evaporative cooler is described. The evaporative cooler may comprise an assembly of one or more plates. At least one trough proximate the one or more plates. A water delivery system may be proximate the at least one trough. The water delivery system may comprise at least one supply tube and at least one fill tube, wherein the water delivery system is positioned to siphon air from the evaporative cooler when a continuous water supply is suspended.

Abstract: A direct evaporative cooler includes a liquid delivery system and an assembly of two or more plates. At least one plate of the assembly of two or more plates may include a top surface having a wicking material with an exposed surface for receiving a liquid thereon from the liquid delivery system, and one or more masks lining a portion of the exposed surface. The one or more masks may be impermeable to the liquid thereby preventing the liquid from evaporating through the one or more masks, and the one or more masks may be sized and shaped such that a wick rate of the liquid on the exposed surface exceeds an evaporation rate of the liquid.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a plate for an evaporative cooler is disclosed. The plate may comprise a wicking material with an exposed surface and a sealed surface opposite the exposed surface. An impermeable barrier may be coupled to the sealed surface. One or more masks may line a portion of the exposed surface, wherein the masks may comprise an impermeable material. In some embodiments, the mask may be a strip of impermeable material and may be coupled to a flat area of the top surface. In further embodiments, the one or more masks may align with a liquid wick path of the wicking material. In further embodiments, the one or more masks may line the edge of perforations that pass at least partially through the plate.
