Water cooling towers are some of the most essential pieces of equipment for commercial and industrial buildings today. Cooling towers may either use the evaporation of water to remove process heat to cool the process fluid, or may use forced or convective air to cool...
CORROSION PROOF Plastic cooling towers are made of a corrosion proof engineered plastic. The cooling tower shell will never rust, flake, chip, peel, or ever need painting or protective coatings applied. Some industry experts are predicting that plastic towers may just...
The term “exothermic” describes a reaction or process that releases energy, usually in the form of heat. In chemical processing and manufacturing, controlling the heat created by an exothermic reactions is critical to preserve quality, production and safety. A common...
Cooling Tower Terms and Definitions BTU (British Thermal Unit) A BTU is the heat energy required to raise the temperature of one pound of water one degree Fahrenheit in the range from 32° F to 212° F Cooling Range The difference in temperature between the hot water...
In many industrial facilities, various pieces of equipment, as well as many fluids used in process systems need to be cooled. This cooling is mostly done with water. However, as cooling water is used, it absorbs heat, and loses its cooling effectiveness. The water...
