Abstract:
Heat rejection devices, including cooling towers, condensers and closed circuit coolers, having side-mounted backward-curved centrifugal fans mounted on top of the device, above a fan plenum instead of a top-mounted axial fan. Heat rejection capability can be easily modified by adding or subtracting fans without impacting unit footprint. Also, the ability to handle higher static pressures allows for the use of a more densely packed heat exchanger in the same footprint unit, which will increase the unit performance.
Abstract:
A liquid collection assembly positionable between a fill material and a fan of a cooling tower for collecting liquid gravitating through the fill material while allowing air to pass up to the fill material. The liquid collection assembly includes that includes a plurality of trough assemblies supported in a spaced apart, vertically overlapping relationship to provide a uniform path for rising air, to capture the down flowing liquid, to provide a barrier between the liquid distribution system and the fan, and to carry the liquid into the at least one gutter. The trough assemblies are supported by a first end plate and a second end plate through which trough assemblies extend.
Abstract:
The pre-cooler includes one or more cells which are oriented about an air stream to be cooled. A housing defines a perimeter of the cell with an inlet and outlet for air passing therethrough. Water outlet nozzles within the housing are preferably supported upon bars which orient the nozzles facing in a direction counter to flow of air through the housing. Each nozzle is coupled to a separate stage with multiple stages of nozzles coupled to separate valves. A controller opens or closes different valves. The controller measures ambient humidity and temperature conditions as well as air flow rates to calculate the amount of water to be added to the air and then opens appropriate numbers of stages of valvesso that an appropriate number of nozzles spray water into the air to saturate the air. Flow rate control is thus provided without pressure variations,for optimal nozzle performance.
Abstract:
A method of operating an evaporative cooling tower includes contacting water with air in a cooling zone to cool the water and heat the air and cooling the heated air to condense water therefrom, thereby to reduce water loss from the cooling tower. Typically, the cooling of the heated air is by means of evaporative cooling employing a refrigerant.
Abstract:
A fill support grid hanger for hanging a full support grid from a horizontal structural member that obviates the need for an intervening spacer bar. The hanger features a flange at the top, a plurality of blocks in the back to stabilize the hanger on the horizontal structural member, and three-dimensional features on the front side to receive and prevent lateral movement of two or more different types of fill support grids.
