Recent research on an indirect evaporative cooler. Part VI: Evolution of design pattern for indirect evaporative cooler

A rule of thumb for indirect evaporative cooler has been derived in terms of the size of floor area to be cooled and design parameters of tube type IEC, viz. process stream air flow rate and number of tubes; the three Indian climate zones, namely hot–dry, composite and warm–humid, represented by three cities of Jodhpur, Delhi and Madras, respectively, have been considered.
