Stackable dry cooler assembly with heat exchanger panels
A heat exchanger assembly has a frame including first and second legs laterally spaced apart, a lower transversal member extending laterally and interconnecting the legs, first and second upstanding members laterally spaced apart and extending upwardly from the lower transversal member, an upper transversal member extending laterally and disposed above the lower transversal member and connected to the first and second upstanding members, and first and second upper retaining members laterally spaced apart and being connected to the upper transversal member and extending transversally to the upper transversal member. First and second heat exchanger panels are connected to the first and second upper retaining members. The heat exchanger panels are disposed in a V-configuration such that a distance between upper ends thereof is greater than a distance between lower ends thereof. A fan has a fan rotation axis extending generally parallel to the first and second upstanding members.
Cooling assembly and method for installation thereof
A cooling assembly includes a plurality of dry coolers. Each dry cooler has an air intake, an air outtake, a heat exchanger panel for exchanging heat with air pulled into the dry cooler, and a fan rotating about a fan rotation axis for pulling air into the dry cooler and rejecting heated air out of the dry cooler. The heat exchanger panel includes a tubing arrangement for circulating fluid therein. The dry coolers are arranged in a plurality of dry cooler stacks. Each dry cooler stack includes a first dry cooler and a second dry cooler disposed above the first dry cooler. The dry cooler stacks are positioned such that the dry coolers of each dry cooler stack reject heated air into a common heat rejection zone. Each dry cooler is oriented such that the fan rotation axis of the dry cooler is substantially transversal to a vertical axis.

HYBRID WET/DRY COOLING TOWER AND IMPROVED FILL MATERIAL FOR COOLING TOWER
A hybrid wet/dry cooling tower and novel splash fill material are provided. In one embodiment, the cooling tower includes a wet cooling section having a draft fan disposed above the wet section for drawing air through the wet section to cool liquid traversing the wet section. The cooling tower also includes a dry cooling section disposed laterally adjacent the wet section and configured to enable the draft fan to draw air through the dry section. In another embodiment, the dry cooling section has one or more added draft fan(s) for drawing air through the dry section with or without operation of the draft fan disposed above the wet section. In other embodiments, different structures and configurations of plastic splash fill material are described.

Cooling tower fan cylinder
A segmented/modular cooling tower fan cylinder having basic segments, a motor segment and an access segment, assembled to form an hourglass shaped cooling tower fan cylinder to protect fan blades, reduce sound and vibration, and enhance performance. The segments are preferably molded fiberglass composite structures having integrally molded vertical and horizontal ribs and a horizontal rib stiffener which connects horizontal ribs of adjacent segments. A top ring stiffener is provided at the junction of each two adjacent segments in the top ring flange. Lifter bars may be provided inside a central vertical rib of the segment to secure cables or straps to hoist an assembled fan cylinder into its final location or to secure a safety harness for workers servicing equipment in the interior space defined by the fan cylinder.
