Season-Wise Three-Dimensional CFD Modelling of a Natural Evaporative Water Cooler: Development, Calibration and Experimental Validation
Natural evaporative water coolers provide refrigerant-free, ultra-low-energy water cooling for hot–dry climates, yet computational fluid dynamics (CFD) studies of such systems at full device scale are absent from the literature. This paper develops a three-dimensional CFD model of a complete natural evaporative water c...
