97-01: Design Considerations for a Fiberglass, Field Erected, Closed-CircuitWhat is believed to be the world's first fiberglass, field erected, closed circuit cooling tower has been recently constructed. The paper contains a review of the major design differences between closed circuit cooling towers in which the air and water streams flow essentially parallel and other more conventional field erected cooling products. The structural design considerations for dead, wind and vibrational loads as well as those required for

A new proprietary inhibitor

improve system energy efficiency

incorporating chromate synergized with phosphates

In the study presented in this paper

Many towers are in exis­tence today which handle 100

The objective of the first test method is to quantify the sound level or personnel exposure levels in the working environment of the cooling tower

Laboratory electrochemical results will be presented as well as plant application case histories

Methods have been developed to avoid such pitfalls

and reduced space requirements

The combination products are highly effective

rates of strength degradations are computed for critical components

Plume abatement coils are used to reduce/prevent visible plumes of moisture exiting a wet cooling tower fan stack
