| dc.description.abstract | Almost every industrial process needs some form of cooling. Water is still the most extensively used fluid for cooling, but the days when plenty of it was available are gone forever. Water conservation is currently achieved by the use of evaporative cooling, more commonly known as 'Cooling Tower'. The logo of the Cooling Tower Institute reads 'It Is Good Business to Conserve Water' but today it is not good enough. In many areas water to compensate for Wet Cooling Tower evaporation losses cannot be economically found and better solutions are needed. The paper explores potential improvements in Wet Cooling Tower design and operation as well as new WET DRY tower combinations in order to conserve even more water. | en |
