Square Shape Counter flow

Square Shape Counter Flow Cooling Towers:

Square shape Counter flow cooling towers are fitted with an induced draught fan on the top and are directly mounted on the motor. The fan induces the ambient air into the tower to draft it upward.  As a result, the speed of exhaust air is much higher than the air that enters. These results in low pressure drop and also lower circulation. Square shape Counter flow cooling tower design allows maximum thermal performance capability per unit of plan area. Minimizes pump head requirements. Available with your choice of heat exchange media to satisfy just about any water quality.

Process:

The square shape counter flow cooling tower performs on counter flow mechanism, in which the air drafts vertically upwards through the fillings/packing, while the water splashes downwards. Square shape Counter flow design is more suitable for the application, where cold water temperature is critical.
One of the main advantages of counter flow design is that the coldest water contacts the driest air resulting in the maximum tower performance. Being an enclosed device, a counter flow cooling tower eliminates the possibility of sunlight exposure of water. This minimizes the possibility of growth of algae. A nozzle distribution is sensitive to changes in water flow thus it affects the overall efficiency.
The air movement is vertically through the fill in counter flow to the downwards fall of the water. Square shape Counter flow towers have in general a smaller footprint than cross flow towers but require a higher pump head due to the typical distribution system with nozzles.

Materials:

1. Direct Driven Fan:

1. Aluminium Alloys/engineered polymer/FRP fans for higher capacity to resist and lifelong

2. Low weight, low energy consumption

3. Axial flow, aerodynamic, maximum air throws higher cfm
