Opis

The book deals with Cooling towers function, types, heat and mass flow through the tower lines. The counter flow and numerical models were explained in detail. Numerical models were developed and simulated for determining the effectiveness of cooling towers. These models are useful for Power plants kilns.Two typical closed water cooling towers (CWCTs) with different counter-flow constructions, viz. one with the parallel counter-flow and the other with the cross counter-flow, were selected as the study objects in this work. A simplified model and calculation method were presented for performance prediction of counter-flow CWCTs. Based on the proposed cooling capacity model with new input parameters, the outlet temperatures of the process water were compared with the measurements. Furthermore, the cooling capacity and cooling tower effectiveness of both towers were investigated and compared, respectively, under given operating conditions.
