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
EVAPORATION OF 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 same 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
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
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
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
