[Bldg-sim] Query regarding modelling of secondary air stream in two stage evaporative cooler

[Priyam Tewari via Bldg-sim]

Dear Jim

The two-stage evaporative cooler consists of an indirect heat exchanger and
direct evaporative cooler. The first stage usually employs indirect contact
cooling of primary air stream using another air stream called secondary air
stream. For my research work I am considering a wet-coil indirect
evaporative cooler. Below is the diagram of secondary and primary air
streams used in an indirect evaporative cooler.

I wish to *recirculate the secondary air stream (in proportion) to the
zone *which is generally exhausted to atmosphere.Please find attached the
block diagram of what I intend to do.
Hope the block diagram clearly explains the problem.  It will be great if
anyone can guide me through.

Thanks
