Abstract

To predict the performance of cooling tower used in air conditionings in variable operating conditions, a steady state model of cooling tower suitable for variable conditions simulation was built and tested. Comparison between the prediction value and the experimental value shows good agreement. The results show that this model is suitable for calculation of cooling capacity of cooling tower used in air conditionings at variable inlet temperature or mass flow rate of condensing water, and at variable inlet wet-bulb temperature or mass flow rate of cooling-air. This model is useful for simplifying performance test, equipment selection and running control.
