Type of article: Article

Summary

ENVIRONMENTAL AND ECONOMIC INCENTIVES DEMAND AN ACCURATE PREDICTION OF THE BEHAVIOUR OF WET COOLING TOWERS, INCLUDING THE PREDICTION OF EVAPORATION LOSS AS A FUNCTION OF AMBIENT CONDITIONS AND OPERATIONAL MODE. BASED ON A SIMPLIFIED MODEL, A FULLY GENERALIZED CHART HAS BEEN DEVELOPED THAT CAN READILY BE APPLIED BY USERS OF WET COOLING TOWERS. THE PREDICTED VALUES OBTAINED BY THE PRESENTED SIMPLIFIED METHOD ARE IN ACCEPTABLE AGREEMENT BOTH WITH FIELD TESTS AND WITH THE PREDICTIONS OF FAR MORE SOPHISTICATED AND COMPLEX MODELS.
