A method for solids removal in heat exchanger systems includes a first water flow path from a heat exchanger to a cooling tower and back to the heat exchanger, including: forming an additional path in parallel with the first path, wherein water flows from the heat exchanger to a UET reactor and back to the heat exchanger, and wherein the UET reactor including means for solids removal from the water using a partial electrolysis process. Optionally, the volumetric flow rate in the additional path is about 5% of the volumetric flow rate in the first water flow path.

A cooling tower is provided with a housing containing a fan at the bottom of the tower, and a plurality of layers of water collection troughs or channels above the fan to capture water droplets sprayed downwardly from the top of the device through an evaporative cooling pad located above the collection troughs. The collection troughs extend from one side of the housing to the other in the form of a structural support for the housing and the equipment therein. The troughs have open ends which extend through the housing to discharge collected water to an adjacent vertical tank.

A method for cleaning debris from a floor of a cooling tower collection basin can include expelling a fluid from a first side of the basin floor to a second and opposite side of the basin floor where the fluid and debris are removed. The fluid may be expelled through radial openings in sweeper headers and may be removed through openings in a suction manifold. The method may further include removing the debris from the fluid.

The present invention relates to a fan cylinder bracing system for a cooling tower having a fan deck that extends along a longitudinal axis. The bracing system has a first ring having a first diameter wherein the first ring is located at a first position along the longitudinal axis. It also has a second ring having a second diameter wherein the second ring is located at a second position along the longitudinal axis. Finally, the cylinder bracing system has a first brace connected to the first ring and said second ring, wherein said first brace transfers loads from the first ring to the second ring.

The present disclosure relates to a cooling device for heat treatment that performs heat treatment by cooling individually or as a whole a heated metal object. The cooling device for heat treatment includes: a chamber to which a plurality of objects is charged through one open side thereof; an individual cooling unit configured to be provided in the chamber, to individually cover the object, and to spray a cooling medium onto the object; and a driving unit configured to be provided on the chamber and to move the individual cooling unit in an up and down direction. With this configuration, it is possible to obtain a required cooling capacity by cooling individually or as a whole a heated metal object.

A single inlet/single outlet modular counterflow cooling tower having two heat transfer sections installed atop two cold water basin sections and below three fan sections, each heat transfer section having its own water distribution system and draining into its own distinct cold water basin section. The water distribution system can provide flow over both heat transfer sections or over only a single section. The center fan support section supports the mechanical drive system for the fan and has a sealing plate at its bottom for sealing the gap between the two heat transfer sections.

A liquid collecting assembly includes a first structural member and a second structural member. The first structural member includes a first receiving portion and a first latching portion. The first receiving portion defines a first through slot. A first receiving groove is formed between the first latching portion and the first receiving portion. The second structural member defines a second through slot. The first structural member is slidably connected to the second structural member. The first receiving portion can accommodate in the second through slot, and the second structural member can accommodate in the first receiving groove.
