This paper presents the performance of a computer simulation code for modelling the evaporative cooling of buidings by water spray vaporization, bring together the scales of the droplet, spray and building. The capability of the models to predict evaporation and building behavior was examined in a series of parametric tests. The parametric explorations have served to demonstrate that the model is sufficiently consistent and react qualitatively well to variations of input parameters.
