Influence of constructive parameters on the performance of two indirect evaporative cooler prototypesTejero González, AnaAndrés Chicote, ManuelVelasco Gómez, EloyRey Martínez, Francisco JavierEficiencia energéticaClimatizaciónEdificiosEnfriamiento evaporativoIndirect evaporative coolingHeat recoveryPlastic heat exchangerHeat exchange areaCooling capacityThermal conductance3322Producción CientíficaTwo equally-sized cross-flow heat exchanger prototypes have been designed with a total heat exchange area of 6 m2 and 3 m2 respectively, constructed with polycarbonate hollow panels of different cross-section. They are connected into a heat recovery cycle within the whole experimental setup constructed for the tests, which mainly consists of: an Air Handling Unit to simulate the outdoor airstream conditions, a conditioned climate chamber, and a water circuit to provide the water supply required. They have been experimentally characterised in two operating modes in order to determine how evaporative cooling improves heat recovery in each case, focusing on the influence of modifying the constructive characteristics. To perform the evaporative cooling process, water is supplied to the exhaust airstream. Results are studied considering how constructive issues, outdoor air volume flow rate and temperature, as well as operating mode influence on the performance obtained. An Analysis of Variance shows how outdoor airflow has a key role in the performance of the systems; whereas entering outdoor air temperature determines cooling capacities. Improvements introduced by larger heat exchange areas compensate with their corresponding smaller cross sections, which hinder water-air distribution on the exhaust air side of the heat exchanger. Finally, these small devices achieve cooling capacities of up to 800 W, being able to partly support ventilation load and achieving around 50% of energy saving in ventilation cooling.This work forms part of the research being carried out within the framework of the “Reduction of energy consumption and carbon dioxide emission in buildings combining evaporative cooling, free cooling and energy recovery in all-air systems”, project supported by the Ministry of Science and Technology through the call for scientific research and technological development research projects.
