1 or 2 per hour

I have to change the size of redolog files because there are very less
log switches occur on our environment. hardly 5 to 6 log switch in per
24 HOUR. I wanna ask on which ground a have set an appropriate size of
my redolog files ... ?

Oracle just tells you, that your logs should be big enough, that you
will not get more than 3 switches per hour. It is ok to get fewer
switches.
If you want to ensure, that you get at least one switch every n minutes
you can set the parameter ARCHIVE_LAG_TARGET to n*60 (the parameter is
in seconds).
Alternatively force a logswitch before every archivelog backup.
