Abstract

Convective mass transfer for the cross flow of air with water film outside the tube wall is analyzed for an indirect evaporative cooler with a horizontal tube. Experimental correlation is established for the convective mass transfer coefficient and shows that applying the Lewis relation to calculate the convective mass transfer coefficient is not accurate with discrepancies ranging from 70% to 160%.
