COOLING WATER The concept of temperature and heat Temperature is a physical quantity that expresses the thermal state of an object. It is closely correlated to the amount of heat contained in the object itself. A hot body is characterized by the Read More
The system that allows used water that was heated during the cooling of a technological system to be cooled, thus making it again, and continuously, available to give continuity to the cooling cycles, is called “evaporative cooling tower”. Liquid refrigerant cooling is Read More
Water as a means of energy-heat transportation Excessive heat not used by machines must be removed. This is important to avoid accumulated heat and, hence, compromise the functioning of the machines. One would think that a quick remedy for this type of Read More
Why recycle water used for cooling industrial plants? Water is a precious resource. Wasting water, besides being a waste of money, precludes resources otherwise used for the benefits of all. For example, irrigation systems, sources of drinking water, and so on will be Read More
The purpose of the fill material (or support material) is to give the most water surface as possible to the air, so that the same water can evaporate and, hence, become cool. The bigger the water surface exposed to the air, the Read More
The lower the efficiency of a tower the more serious the situation in terms of performance and productivity. The tower is part of an overall system designed to dispose residual heat from a production plant or at least from an aforetime primary Read More
Vulnerabilities(1) Threats(2) Risks(3) Evaluation error of how much thermal load to dispose of Plant served by the tower is lacking efficiency Decrease in production and / or possible damage to the plant Lower cost Objective not achieved Ineffective or useless project A Read More
What happens if the tower is not working properly? First thing, don’t panic! Actually, many things could go wrong! We might not even be aware of the many inconveniences that can occur to an industrial plant when the water cooling tower is Read More
The following diagrams shows the change in static and dynamic pressure inside the TURBOsplash PAC fill material/evaporative panels, depending on the speed of the air. CFD Processing
