WHAT IS A WATER COOLING TOWER?

Water cooling towers are column-shaped reservoirs, with varied sizes that can reach up to 200m in height and 100m in diameter, whose arrangements can be in twinned or separate cells, according to the needs of each project, built from various materials, such as: PRFV (Fiberglass reinforced polyester), Pultruded PRFV, ACZF (Fire galvanized carbon steel), Stainless Steel or Concrete, with the purpose of cooling the circulating water of a process.

The hot water to be cooled enters through the top part of the cooling tower, while the cold air enters through the lower side parts being sucked in by a fan, so that the sprinkler nozzles spray the hot water from top to bottom, distributing it to the contact fill which plays the role of increasing the contact surface of the hot water with the cold air, removing the heat from the water and resting it in the cooled water basin located in the lower part of the equipment, to then return it to the process at the appropriate temperature.
