Summary

POINTS OUT THAT COOLING TOWERS HAVE GREAT POTENTIAL FOR ENERGY CONSERVATION AND CASH SAVINGS WHEN PROPERLY ENGINEERED AND MAINTAINED. IN MANY CASES THE LIMITING FACTOR IS THE QUALITY AND QUANTITY OF THE COLD WATER COMING OFF THE COOLING TOWER. DESCRIBES THE EFFECT OF HIGHER COOLING WATER TEMPERATURES ON SYSTEM EFFICIENCY. PROVIDES ACTUAL EXAMPLES TO ILLUSTRATE THE COSTS AND PROFITS OBTAINED WITH OPTIMIZATION OF COLDER WATER BY ENGINEERED THERMAL UPGRADING. (INT. BUILD. SERV. ABSTR., GB., 23, N 4, 1988, 88-01097.
