In Summer
The operation of hybrid cooling towers relies on the
operation of open and closed cooling towers. The top of the cooling tower has
an air/water battery that allows to skip the evaporation (partially) and to use
the battery (partially) only. It all depends on the weather and cooling
capacity to be evacuated. With this process, considerable water can be saved
and visible vapor plume can be also reduced in major quantity.
In Hybrid closed circuit cooling tower, the liquid that
needs to be cooled passes through the air/water battery. With this, exhaust air
will get warmed up and this will reduce relative humidity. The liquid flows
through the process side of the plate heat exchanger to complete the cooling
process.
Spring/Fall
The by-pass valve of the tower allows to regulate water
amount to be conducted directly to the basin and the water quantity to
initially pass over the packing of the tower.
Winter
The liquid of the tower is cooled by battery only and is not
led to the basin. In winter, cooling is done without evaporation and thus,
water consumption remains zero.
The hybrid mode of cooling tower uses limited water to
acquire optimum performance. In this mode, cooling tower uses little amount of
water to pre-cool the ambient air streaming inside the tower, lowering air
temperature toward the ‘wet bulb temperature’, the minimum temperature that can
be reached via evaporative cooling.
Materials used for casing and structure of cooling tower:
- FRP
- Wood
- Concrete
You don’t need to worry about maintenance and inspection as
these can be done with an ease. The mixed flow closed circuit cooling towers offer maximum operational safety.
Great idea,and that would be useful in summer but tell me also about winter season.
