Hybrid and Dry Cooling Systems
Hybrid and Dry Cooling Systems
Hybrid wet dry cooling tower systems, also known as wet/dry or hybrid towers, are often seen in power plants, and are increasing in popularity due to their reduced water consumption.
These towers are a common choice because they are built to avoid large plumes in areas such as residential neighbourhoods or airports where plume visibility is undesirable. Designed to emit no plumes even in cold or humid ambient conditions, the hybrid wet dry cooling tower is a cost-effective (LCCA), high-performance solution. It works by combining an evaporative cooling tower combined with a dry heat exchanger in the upper part of the structure. Plume visibility is minimal when using a hybrid wet dry cooling tower with the correct configurations.
Wet Cooling Tower – An Environmentally Friendly Solution
- A well-designed cooling tower avoids production losses and therefore reduces the energy consumption of a process. Effective drift eliminators diminish the drift losses and therefore the water make-up. The temperature of a cooled water rejected in nature is such that environmental consequences are minimized.
challenging requirement – Industrial Solution for an ever
- HCTC provides several types of wet cooling solutions that are tailored to the requirements of the process, whether it is a cooling for HVAC, district cooling system, or power generation. HCTC can provide FRP cooling towers, stainless steel cooling towers, concrete cooling towers. HCTC can also provide packaged solutions.
- The size and performance of the cooling tower depends on the flowrate, range, approach and wet bulb temperature.
