Abstract

Hybrid cooling towers are a new type of equipment that can be used in cooling water circuits. In this work, a hybrid cooling tower is developed, in which inclined corrugated plates are used as a fill, and the circulating liquid flows through an internal tubular radiator, the finned surface of which is continuously washed by the coolant water. The purpose of the work is to perform an experimental evaluation of the cooling efficiency of the developed hybrid system used for circulating water cooling. It was obtained that at the wetting density of the coolant water equal to 28.3 m3/(m2·h) and the mass flow rate of the circulating water in the tubular radiator of 0.0135 kg/s, the cooling efficiency of the developed cooling tower can reach 38.6%.
