<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#17365D">eQUEST does not have a very robust ‘passive’ anything. Marlin Addison could tell you that. Harvey Bryan has a DOS based program called ‘CoolT’ or something like
that. The program may allow you to model passive evap cooling (or at least size it), but you’ll have to ask Harvey. My recommendation would have you build a passive evap cooling tower and collect data to provide the modeling world with an acceptable algorithm
for modeling this in the PHX area.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
