EVAPORATION OF A FLUID INTO GAS The following discussion is based on the following assumptions: (1) Inside the water there is no heat exchange; (2) The water that has decreased in volume, due to the evaporation effect, will be replenished with the Read More
UP TO WHAT TEMPERATURE CAN WATER BE COOLED The capacity of air to cool water, according to latent heat. Practical benefits. The physical states are well known: solid, liquid, gaseous. When an element goes from one physical state to another, it frees Read More
Water cooling takes place according to three phenomena: 1. CONDUCTION: (disposal of sensible heat1). The heat flows from a region with a higher temperature to a region with a lower temperature through one or more means that are in direct physical contact, Read More
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
