A Review of Indirect Evaporative Cooling Operating Conditions and Performances

AbstractsThe paper presents a review of indirect evaporative cooling (IEC) operating conditions and performances. This cooling technology is promising to develop in the near future due to its very low energy consumption and high efficiency in its range of applications. The review is presenting in details: operating conditions and performances. Having very low energy consumption comparing to classic cooling, the IEC technology is environmental friendly and has very low global warming impact. The single disadvantage of IEC is the water consumption. The review also includes a study concerning the limits of IEC for different locations world-wide
