Type of article: Article

Summary

The model provides predictions of seasonal, monthly, and annual cooling tower impacts from any number of mechanical- or natural-draft cooling towers. The model typically requires five years of hourly surface meteorological data and concurrent twice-daily mixing heights in addition to basic data on the thermal performance of the cooling tower. The model predicts average plume length, rise, drift deposition, fogging, icing, and shadowing.
