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.
AERO-REFRIGERATION TOWER WITH PASSAGE FOR BYPASSING A HUMIDIFICATION DEVICE IN A MIXED MODULE OF THE TOWER
An air-cooling tower comprising an air intake unit, a dry unit and a mixed unit between the intake unit and the dry unit, with the units being adjacent, with the intake unit being configured to draw outside air and transfer it to the mixed unit, at least one passage of humidification of discharged air passing through at least one humidification device of the mixed unit. At least one passage as a by-pass separate from said at least one passage of humidification passes through the mixed unit outside of the space occupied by the at least one humidification device and connecting the air intake unit to the dry unit, the at least one passage as a by-pass being partitioned with respect to the at least one passage of humidification and to the at least one humidification device.
Heat exchanger, modular indirect evaporation cooling system, and method for controlling modular indirect evaporation cooling system
Embodiments of this application provide a heat exchanger, a modular indirect evaporation cooling system, and a method for controlling a modular indirect evaporation cooling system, and relate to the field of indirect cooling technologies, to improve cooling efficiency of the modular indirect evaporation cooling system. The heat exchanger includes a first heat exchange core and a second heat exchange core. The first heat exchange core includes a first heat exchange fin and a first seal, where two first seals are disposed opposite to each other and are separately connected to the first heat exchange fin in an intersected manner. The second heat exchange core includes a second heat exchange fin, a second seal, and a heat exchange medium permeability channel, where two second seals are opposite to each other and are separately connected to the second heat exchange fin in an intersected manner.
ULTRA NARROW CHANNEL ULTRA LOW REFRIGERANT CHARGE EVAPORATIVE CONDENSER
A tube bundle for an evaporative refrigerant condenser having a plurality of straight single pass tubes extending between a refrigerant inlet header and a refrigerant outlet header, said tubes having a cross-sectional shape in the form of an ellipse having a major axis and a minor axis, wherein said major axis is longer than said minor axis by a factor of 3 to 7, wherein the amount of required refrigerant charge for a particular heat exchange capacity is substantially and unexpectedly reduced resulting in a substantial and unexpected increase in efficiency.
Water minimizing method and apparatus for use with evaporative cooling devices
An evaporative cooling system includes a primary cooling unit that utilizes a cooling fluid flowing through a primary heat exchange medium to cool supply air flowing past the primary heat exchange medium, a bleed line and a secondary cooling unit disposed upstream of the primary cooling unit with respect to a flow direction of the supply air. The primary cooling unit includes a supply line for supplying the cooling fluid to the primary heat exchange medium, a reservoir for collecting the cooling fluid supplied to the primary heat exchange medium, and a pump for recirculating the cooling fluid collected in the reservoir back to the supply line. The bleed line bleeds a portion of the recirculating cooling fluid from the primary cooling unit. The secondary cooling unit includes a secondary heat exchange medium that receives the cooling fluid bled from the primary cooling unit through the bleed line.
BI-DIRECTIONAL FILL FOR USE IN COOLING TOWERS
