Summary

A cooling tower is used in the centralised evaporative air cooling system. In the paper, the counter-flow cooling tower is modified to precool the air at the tower inlet, either by the water after the cooling load, or the tower exit air. These two modified towers are modelled. They seem to be distinctly advantageous when operating at low approaches, small ranges and large wet-bulb depressions, thus making them quite useful in evaporative air cooling applications.
