Summary

In the paper an investigation is made using measurements of the mass transfer rates and pressure drops for a comprehensive range of PVC plastic packing producing an economic comparison to find the best geometry and range. In order to do this, mass transfer and pressure drop for turbulent conditions in fills used in the modern cooling tower have been studied. A new method of comparison of existing cooling tower fills has been developed and the performance of the best packing has been expressed in relation to the ideal packing.
