INDIRECT EVAPORATION

Evaporation is the process in which liquid

change its phase to gas or vapour and during
the process liquid absorb heat and it produce
cooling effect.

Indirect evaporative cooling means

evaporative air is directly not use but this
cooled air is used to cool room air by using
heat exchanger.

• Performance and Analysis of an Evaporative cooling System: A Review
• Volume 5, Issue 10, October-2014

In this paper working principles, and performance of evaporative cooling

under wide range of operating conditions. The effectiveness of evaporative
cooling in different application is discussed in this paper and benefits of power
consumption, cost savings and environmental impacts, specifically for the
facility required to support conventional air-conditioning and the facility
required to support space cooled via evaporative cooling. This paper also
discusses desiccant evaporative cooling analysis. The superior cooling of air and
ventilation can be provided by evaporative cooling system while consuming less
energy and also provides environmental friendly cooling technologies. In this
paper also show direct evaporative cooling, indirect evaporative cooling and two
stage evaporative cooling.

• A Study of Desiccant-Based Cooling and Dehumidifying System in
Hot-Humid Climate
• International Journal of Materials, Mechanics and Manufacturing,
Vol. 1, No. 2, May 2013

The purpose of this study is to investigate the feasibility of using

desiccant cooling system as an alternative HVAC(Heating ventilation and air
conditioning) solution in buildings to achieve thermal comfort. This solution is
more attractive when the solar energy is used to regenerate the desiccant
wheel. ATRNSYS model of the desiccant cooling system combined with the
heat wheel and heat source has been simulated and compared with the
experimental data. The results of the simulation show that such system is
feasible for cooling building in hot-humid climates.

• MODELING OF A REGENERATIVE INDIRECT EVAPORATIVE COOLER FOR A
DESICCANT COOLING SYSTEM
• Publication date: 2013

In this paper presents a numerical study of a regenerative indirect evaporative

cooler, the so-called Dew Point Cooler (DPC), which is part of a Desiccant Cooling
system that may both dehumidify and cool humid air. The DPC model is based on
first principles using a 1D finite volume scheme and determines the steady state
working conditions for the component. A sensitivity analysis of the DPC
performance is carried out based on the air inlet conditions, air flow rate and
recirculation fraction. A recirculation fraction around 0.3 maximizes the DPC net
cooling capacity. The supply temperature is found to be mostly affected by the
inlet humidity ratio. Manufacturer data are used to tune the model. The tuned
DPC model is characterized by an area effectiveness coefficient which is kept
constant at 0.55. The cooling capacity and water consumption estimated by the
tuned model deviate within 3% and 8%, respectively from manufacturer data. The
computed pressure drops deviates within 6% from manufacturer data.

• Numerical study of a M-cycle cross-flow heat exchanger for indirect
evaporative Cooling.

In this paper, numerical analyses of the thermal performance of an indirect

evaporative air cooler incorporating a M-cycle cross-flow heat exchanger has
carried out. The numerical model is established from solving the coupled
governing equations for heat and mass transfer between the products and
working air, using the finite-element method. The model was developed using
the EES (Engineering Equation Solver) environment and validated by published
experimental data. The optimum flow ratio of working-to-product air for this
cooler is 50%. The channel geometric sizes, i.e. channel length and height, also
impose significant impact to system performance. Longer channel length and
smaller channel height contribute to increase of the system cooling effectiveness
but lead to reduced system COP. The model of this kind is new and not yet
reported in literatures. The results of the study help with design and
performance analyses of such a new type of indirect evaporative air cooler, and
in further, help increasing market rating of the technology within building air
conditioning sector, which is currently dominated by the conventional
compression refrigeration technology

Indirect evaporative cooling of air to a sub-wet bulb temperature.
Aalto University, School of Science and Technology, Department of
Energy Technology, P.O. Box 14400, 00076 Aalto, Finland

A computational model for an indirect evaporative cooler is

developed based on mathematical analysis of the heat and mass
transfer process inside the cooler. The model results showed very
good agreement when validated against available experimental
data from literature. From the analysis presented in this paper,
thus indirect evaporative cooling is able to supply air. The idea is to
manipulate the air flow by branching the working air from the product air,
which is indirectly pre-cooled, before it is finally cooled and delivered.
which work according to the concept indicated in this paper, the
ultimate temperature to be reached is the dew point of ambient air.
Therefore, we now can talk about “approach to the dew point of
ambient air” when using these indirect evaporative coolers instead
of the commonly used “approach to the wet bulb temperature”.

PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT OF INDIRECT EVAPORATIVE COOLING AIR-CONDITIONING
SYSTEM, INSTALLED AT THE UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY SYDNEY
M.E. Graduate of the Faculty of Engineering, University of Technology, Sydney [2008]

The coefficient of performance of a DICER(Dual Indirect Cycle Energy Recovery)system is

much higher than that of conventional vapor compression air-conditioning systems for
cooling. The benefits are realized in energy reduction for both cooling and heating
applications and peak demand reduction.
In addition, indirect evaporative cooling systems overcome many of the limitations of direct
evaporative cooling systems. For example, when coupled with a small conventional air
conditioning system, indirect evaporative cooling may operate very efficiently in climates
with high humidity.
Moreover, DICER indirect evaporative cooling systems may effectively be coupled with
new types of HVAC(Heating ventilation and air conditioning) systems, such as under floor air
distribution systems.
Finally, when considering the benefits of the DICER system, as well as the scarcity and
rising cost of energy and environmental problems associated with the use of fossil fuels; the
DICER system has the potential to become the standard way for air conditioning of buildings
in the near future.

A Review of Evaporative Cooling Technologies
International Journal of Environmental Science and Development, Vol. 6,
No. [2, February 2015]

The water for evaporation as a mean of decreasing air

temperature is considerably the most environmentally friendly and effective
cooling system. In this paper a review of evaporative cooling technology that
could be efficiently applicable in building air-conditioning was carried out. Recent
works concerning indirect evaporative cooling based on Maisotsenko-cycle (M-
cycle) have considerable potential towards enhancing the performance
and cooling capacity of IEC system for building cooling.

Energy Saving Potential of Indirect Evaporative Cooling as Fresh Air Precooling in
Different Climatic Conditions in Saudi Arabia.

Fresh air pre-cooling using indirect evaporative cooling (IEC) offers a

great energy saving and emission reduction opportunities. The effectiveness and
energy performance of a commercial indirect evaporative cooling (IEC) unit were
monitored and evaluated. An energy saving calculation method for fresh air pre-
cooling using a hybrid IEC/DX system was presented and subsequently further
expanded to cover a wide range of simulated climatic conditions. Energy savings
chart developed in this study will provide HVAC designers with a tool to evaluate
quickly the potential percentage energy savings when applying fresh air pre-
cooling using IEC as opposed to using DX-based system.

• The Concept of Indirect Evaporative cooling.
September/ 2013

• The secondary air is passed over the wet pad and then the air become moist
than after the secondary air is passed over heat exchanger which exchange heat
from primary air come in room and makes it cooled. Than after the secondary air
become hot and through in atmosphere. Outlet air is passed through heat
exchanger (To become cool) and then supply to the room
