Hi
Anil
You
might benefit from taking a look at the HVAC Toolkit 2 from
ASHRAE.
Complete reference follow. The authors present a
FORTRAN routine for an
indirect evaporative cooler. That might be a departure
for the creation of
your
own type.
Brandemuehl et al. "HVAC 2 Toolkit: A toolkit for
secondary hvac system energy
calculations". ASHRAE, 1993.

Dear TRNSYS users,
I am trying to simulate an Indirect Evaporative Cooling
(IDEC) System for a building in New Delhi. Please see the schematics in the
attached figure. This kind of IDEC is fast becoming popular because it costs
less than air conditioning system, and uses no polluting CFC. The water
consumption in such a system is very low compared to that in a Direct
Evaporative Cooling System.
Now my problem is that I do not find the components in
TRNSYS library to complete the configuration of the system. We have recently
bought TRNSYS with TESS Libraries but the Evaporative Cooler is not included
there. I checked the TRNSYS components at the website, and it is
mentioned in the category of "other components".
I want to know:
1. If the evaporative cooler component is available free of
cost? How to procure and use it?
2. Does any other TRNSYS user has experience with simulating
a similar system?
3. Is a "Flat-plate Air to Air heat Exchanger"
component available anywhere in the TRNSYS library?
I shall be thakful for any help on this.
