摘要:The comparative thermal analysis of theoretical and experimental studies of modified indirect evaporative cooler having cross flow heat exchanger with one fluid mixed and the other unmixed is presented in this research paper. A heat and mass transfer mathematical model is developed to simulate the properties of indirect evaporative cooler. The theoretical result analysis was done by plotting the curves between various performance parameters. This work presents the fabrication and experiments carried out on the indirect evaporative cooler at various outdoor air conditions. The data acquired by experiment were analyzed by plotting the curves between various performance parameters. The theoretical and experimental results were compared and analyzed. The theoretical model can be used to predict the performance of modified indirect evaporative cooler.
