# .AixLib.Fluid.HeatExchangers.Validation.WetCoilEffectivenessNTU

Model that validates the wet coil effectiveness-NTU model

## Information

This model duplicates an example from Mitchell and Braun 2012, example SM-2-1 (Mitchell and Braun 2012) to validate a single case for the AixLib.Fluid.HeatExchangers.WetCoilEffectivenessNTU model.

#### Validation

The example simulates a wet coil with constant air and water inlet temperature and mass flow rate, and an increasing air inlet humidity which triggers the transition from a fully-dry to a fully-wet regime. The reference used for validation is the published experimental data.

Note that the outlet air relative humidity may slightly exceed 100% when using the epsilon-NTU model.
