ShareREDUCTION IN PERFORMANCE DUE TO RECIRCULATION IN MECHANICAL DRAFT COOLING TOWERS.
Author(s) : KROGER D. G.
Type of article: Article
Summary
THE INFLUENCE OF RECIRCULATING WARM PLUME AIR ON THE PERFORMANCE OF MECHANICAL-DRAFT COOLING TOWERS IS INVESTIGATED ANALYTICALLY, NUMERICALLY, AND EXPERIMENTALLY. IT IS SHOWN THAT THE AMOUNT OF RECIRCULATION THAT OCCURS IS A FUNCTION OF THE FLOW AND THE THERMAL AND GEOMETRIC CHARACTERISTICS OF THE TOWER. THE PRESENCE OF A WIND WALL TENDS TO REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF RECIRCULATION. AN EQUATION IS PRESENTED WITH WHICH THE PERFORMANCE EFFECTIVENESS DUE TO RECIRCULATION CAN BE EVALUATED APPROXIMATELY FOR A MECHANICAL-DRAFT COOLING TOWER.
