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) removed from water during evaporation: dQD = 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. We Read More
What happens if the cooling tower is not working properly and the plant is blocked? First thing: do not panic! Many things could go wrong! We might not even be aware of the many inconveniences that can occur to an industrial plant Read More
Cooling Tower System: Converting Geothermal Energy into Electricity Example of flash power plant producing electricity Heat emanates from the earth’s interior and crust generates magma (molten rock). Because magma is less dense than surrounding rock, it rises but generally does not reach Read More
Use of Cooling Towers with Geothermal Energy 1. What is geothermal energy? Geothermal energy derives from the heat of the earth’s core. Here we will refer to energy deriving from the core of the earth. Based on new research, the earth’s core 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 the Read More
Process plants that can be cooled with evaporation systems. The importance of disposing quantity of energy. Efficiency of the cooling system. Image from previous post “NERI Calculator”. Click on the above image to learn more about the calculator. From what has been written on this Read More
