. Introduction
The main function of wet cooling towers is to reject waste heat
carried by water via direct contact with atmospheric air. The process
involves evaporative cooling and convective cooling to cool
water to a designed temperature. In general, fill is used to break up
(splash) or spread out (film) the water to maximize contact with
the cooling air. Unlike conventional cooling towers which are
subject to the quality of water, water-jet cooling towers are able to
handle contaminated water such as sea water or oilewater mixtures.
To avoid operational disturbance by clogging, fill is removed
and substituted by fine droplets. Thus, a new development of
water-jet cooling tower, in which fill is removed, is invented. The
design utilizes the use of a high pressure water spray nozzle to
induce a co-current air stream into the tower. The essence of the
water-jet cooling tower is that neither fill nor fan are required. This
advantage leads to a tower with fill-free maintenance, that is more
reliable in operation, and that has no fan power cost consumption.
What is now needed is a preliminary design study to develop better
data on which to base performance specifications before
procurement.
