Working Principle Of Cooling Tower
Jan 03, 2025
Working principle of cooling tower:
Cooling tower is a kind of equipment that uses the contact between water and air to dissipate the waste heat generated in industry or refrigeration and air conditioning through evaporation. The basic principle of its work is: the dry (low enthalpy) air enters the cooling tower from the air inlet network after being pumped by the fan; High temperature water molecules with high partial pressure of saturated steam flow to air with low pressure, and damp heat (high enthalpy) water is sprayed into the tower by the self seeding water system.
When water droplets come into contact with air, on the one hand, due to the direct heat transfer between air and, on the other hand, due to the pressure difference between the water vapor surface and air, evaporation occurs under the action of pressure. At present, it is to take away the latent heat of evaporation and take away the heat in the water, that is, evaporation heat transfer, so as to achieve the purpose of cooling.
