Summary

In the paper the authors have given the grounds for using cooling towers with fluidized beds in contaminated water and air. The results of experimental research into the hydrodynamic and heat and mass exchange processes have been listed in the wide range of water and air velocities with bed elements of different densities. The authors make recommendations for the working regimes and designs of small ventilating cooling towers. The influence of flow non-uniformity on cooling efficiency has been studied in the columns of great productivity (the scale-up effect). The methods and algorithm of engineering calculation for cooling towers with fluidized beds have been worked out. These methods take into account the scale-up effect and a more accurate balance of the column resistance and ventilator head flow. The authors also give the technical characteristics of some designed and manufactured columns with productivity from 2.8 to 27.6 l/s (from 10 to 100 m3/h) of cooled water.
