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
The purpose of this post is to stimulate you to share your experiences and thoughts on energy related issues. The following table and related diagrams illustrate how to assess energy in a production plant scenario served by a water cooling tower. It Read More
WHAT ARE THE CONSEQUENCES OF A COOLING TOWER OPERATING AT LOW EFFICIENCY? Cooling tower detailed calculations A low efficient cooling tower brings very serious consequences. Bruno Neri The tower is part of a system designed to dispose residual waste heat from Read More
HOW TO MEASURE THE EFFICIENCY OF A COOLING TOWER In the design process of a cooling tower there is a need to have at least seven data values, or rather 7 variables. If only one of these values is changed, Read More

SYSTEMS THAT COOL WATER IN AN EVAPORATIVE WAY: WHERE THEY ARE USED A hint is given by knowing how refrigerators function in terms of “transfer of energy-heat”. Although this topic is very interesting, we will not linger on the quality of energy. Read More
Evaporation The amount of evaporated water in the surface portion dA can be expressed through the relationship: dL = kv (psat – pv) dA where kv is the evaporation function index. The following expression describes the amount of heat (QD) Read More
