Abstract

Abstract The author points out that engineers have designed cooling towers in the past on empirical information and in accordance with the experience of previous successful designs. Wide departure from standard designs is difficult because of the lack of scientific basis for the design. The author therefore establishes the general principle applicable to cooling-tower design and derives equations for the use of the designer. He presents a quantity of experimental data to substantiate the validity of his formulas and shows by an actual experiment how these formulas are applicable to the design of a counter-current cooling tower.
