✦ Synopsis

The thermal performance of a non-conditioned building fitted with an indirect evaporative cooler (IEC) has been investigated in terms of hourly, monthly and seasonal discomfort index. The effect of various design parameters of the IEC on the discomfort index has been investigated for three different climatic areas of India, i.e. hot-dry, warm, humid and composite. The analysis has shown that the IEC is effective for creating thermal comfort conditions in buildings in dry-hot and composite climates.
