Summary

A SIMPLE ANALYTICAL METHOD, BASED ON THE METHOD OF PARKER AND TREYBAL (1961) WAS DEVELOPED TO PREDICT THE PERFORMANCE OF EVAPORATIVE CONDENSERS. THE TRANSFER COEFFICIENTS OF THE MODEL WERE PREDICTED FROM STANDARD CORRELATIONS. FIELD TESTS WERE PERFORMED ON AN EVAPORATIVE CONDENSER AND THE MEASURED AND PREDICTED HEAT LOADS AND RECIRCULATING WATER TEMPERATURE WERE COMPARED. THE HEAT LOAD WAS UNDERPREDICTED BY ABOUT 30% AND THE WATER TEMPERATURE BY 3 K.
