Numerical analysis of selected evaporative exchangers with the Maisotsenko cycle

A novel approach using predictive models for performance analysis of desiccant enhanced evaporative cooling systems

“…n is the number of effective parameters that is determined according to previous researches. This value is 5 for CoFRMC type IEC [31][32][33][34][35], 6 for PCoFMC type IEC [36,37], and 10 for the DEH subsystem [2,8,15,16].…”

Performance Comparison between Selected Evaporative Air Coolers

“…Due to the fact that authors presented such models in their previous papers, along with the detail transformation of the differential equations, this process will be omitted in this paper and only the basic form of the energy balance equations will be shown. All the detail information about the models are presented and analysis of the evaporative air coolers with the ε-NTU method is presented in papers previously published by authors: [2][3][4][5]8,10]. The basis of the method, including main heat transfer and flow characteristics assumptions, are presented in [4].…”

“…The accuracy of the mathematical model predictions are recognized to be analogous for other HMXs studied in this paper, since the numerical models describing heat and mass transfer in the investigated units are similar to ones describing other above-mentioned devices. Detail description of validation of models describing indirect evaporative air coolers performed by authors can be found in [2][3][4][5]7,8,10].…”

Numerical study of regenerative evaporative coolers for sub-wet bulb cooling with cross- and counter-flow configuration

“…They showed wet bulb effectiveness of about 1.17 in their simulation. Anisimov et al [18] numerically investigated selected evaporative exchangers with the Maisotsenko cycle. Based on the modified ɛ-NTU No study had been reported on the effects of spray water temperature variation along the exchanger surface and LHC in the exchanger plates of IEC and REC before Heidarinejad and moshari [22] model.…”
