Forced Draught Cooling Tower
Range Of Experiments
Forced Draught Cooling Tower
- To determine Volumetric mass transfer coefficient ( hd.a ) for air, water
- system in a cooling tower.
- To study the temperature distribution along the height of the tower.
- The experiments can be conducted at various flow rates of Air & Water & calculation can be made accordingly.
- Experiment can be conduct on both Induced & Forced Draught condition.
- To determine & compare the efficiency of the tower from Induced & Forced Draught condition.
