Summary

General: types of indirect evaporative air coolers. Design of the cooler at stake; it is an iced water/air plate exchanger with air/air heat recovery and water evaporation: return air is cooled by water spray and contributes to cooling fresh air. Design air criteria: heat and mass transfer, pressure losses. Description of the experimental plant. Results of the experiment. Conclusion: the energy savings due to the use of such a cooler in an office air-conditioning plant in Valladolid (Spain), all-day round in July, would reach about 24% in comparison with a conventional cooler (supposed to have a COP of 3.5).
