Summary

A procedure for testing evaporative cooling pads was developed to relate efficiency, face air velocity and static pressure drop across the pads. The test procedure is outlined, how pad performance is affected by pad angle, pad thickness and initial aging is described. The accuracy of the test method is analysed and test results are compared with those of previous researchers. Many experimental cross-corrugated cellulose pads of varying design were tested, including 3 designs currently on the market.
