Water cooling tower is a device to transfer heat energy from water to air to cool down the water in water recycling system of air conditioner and industrial production. Main requirements which should be satisfied when choosing a right water tower are cooling temperature, cooling capacity, wet-bulb temperature etc, besides, the cooling tower should be placed in workshop with good ventilation. Main parts of the water cooling system are heat dissipation material, water distribution system, ventilating devices, air distribution devices, demister and tower basin etc.
Water flows into the water distribution system and is cooled down by honeycomb cooling fins and cooling fan in the water cooling tower. The honeycomb cooling fins disperse the flow evenly, and the cooling fan cools down the water with counter air flowing upwards. The cooled water falls to tower basin and flows out. The demister is applied in the water distribution of the water cooling system to prevent cooled water from floating upwards because of the counter air flow, which reduces water loss. In the cooling tower, a silencer is employed above the tower basin to keep cooled water from splashing around. The ladder is used for inspection and maintenance of the cooling fan.
1. Water in the water cooling tower flows from top to the bottom of the fillings, while the air flows counter the water.
2. High-performance counter-flow cooling system works in three steps. Firstly, hot water flows from water distributor to fillings, during which heat can be transferred to air. Secondly, water in fillings releases heat into the counter air flow. Thirdly, cooled water in the cooling tower falls to the tower basin. In North China, temperature of cooled water can even reduce by 1-2℃ in the third step. Hence, compared with the transverse flow ones, counter-flow water cooling towers have higher cooling efficiency and needs only 80% fillings of the former ones.
3. The water distribution system is rarely clogged. Fillings are clean and durable. Besides, the counter-flow cooling tower has advantages of low backflow moisture and convenient anti-freezing measures, etc.
(1) The water cooling tower should be installed in ventilated place. Air inlet should not be close to buildings, which promises that the cool air can flow into the tower and prevents the heated air from flowing back.
(2) No warm moisture or heavy dust is allowed in working place.
(3) Open place should be chosen to reduce noise pollution caused by cooling tower.
(1) Keep the water cooling tower horizontal in case of inefficiency because of unbalanced water.
(2) Gas/ Electric welding is forbidden on the FRP top to avoid fire.
(3) Circulating water pump is installed lower than the tower basin and the water outlet not higher than the maximum water level of the tower basin.
(4) Pipe racking system of the cooling tower is designed to support the weight of pipes directly.
(5) Communicating pipe is used to balance the water level when several water cooling towers work together.
(6) Although the cooling fan has passed the balance test, please check if the fan is matched well with the wheel before installation of the cooling tower.
(7) Seal the wire connector after installation of motor to prevent water inflow.
Advantages
(1) The water cooling tower has advantages of small size, low height and light weight etc.
(2) Advanced structure meets international standards.
(3) FRP is applied to manufacture the tower body, which is durable, indeformable and fadeless.
(4) Ultra-low noise draught fan and unique noise elimination of water spraying are at advanced level.
(5) Energy consumption of motor is reduced by 30% than that of other cooling towers. Completed pipe lines can reduce cost because it can work in closed circulation.
(6) With highly efficient water collection device, water loss rate is low, hence it protects the environment from being frozen in cold days.
(7) Steel frame of the water cooling tower is galvanized and coated with electrostatic spraying or other protective materials, which makes it corrosion resistant and durable as two times as those of other water towers.
Purchase Notices
Before purchasing a cooling tower, you should choose the right type at first.
(1) Make sure which cooling water volume you need, if the regular one can meet demand, you can choose it directly.
(2) Industrial water tower can meet the demand of large temperature-drop coefficient.
(3) Square shaped ones are in parallel to solve problems of space restrictions.
(4) Ultra-low noise water cooling tower or the transverse flow water tower can meet demand of low noise.
Attentions
(1) Oil level of speed reducer should be frequently checked. Hypoid gear oil (No. 22-No.28) or industrial gear oil (No.90-No.120) is suggested as the lubricating oils.
(2) Fan, motor and speed reducer of the cooling tower should be checked before running. Wire connection of motor must obey original wire diagram to avoid malfunction. After the right wire connection, start up the motor with slow speed and increase the speed slowly. With right blade angle, if the actual electric current exceeds rated electric current, you should stop the motor of the water cooling tower and report this case to our company. Adjustment of blade angle should meet required standards.
(3) Measures for water quality stabilization, such as water filter should be applied during water circulation and water supply. If necessary, germicide and algicide should be applied.
(4) GFRP material is combustible, so open fire is forbidden during the maintenance of the cooling tower. But if it is necessary to apply open fire, related safety measurement should be carried out and it should be approved by fire protection department and security department. Besides, special firefighters and firefight devices are requested to promise security on the scene. There here are available flameproof FRP to choose, too, while cost is higher.
(5) Design of thermal performance and techniques about noise and vibration are in the charge of the fourth design and research institute of machine building ministry, and the quality of the water cooling tower is in the charge of its manufacturing plant. If users request the quality supervision from the fourth design and research institute of machine building ministry, technical protocol should be signed among user, cooling tower manufacturer and research institute.
