How to Check Cooling Tower Performance

CASE Cooling Tower in Jalandar

The cooling tower installed at your operational building need considerable attention at regular 

interval of time. It is advisable to evaluate the cooling tower performance after certain time period so as to avoid from sudden breakdown. 

Certain measurements and calculations are associated with the tower assessment. Let me bring before you some key points to consider:

• Curves and data linked with the tower design
• Use Whirling Pyschrometer to measure Intake air Wet Bulb Temperature (WBT) and Dry Bulb Temperature (DBT) at each cell at ground level.
• Use Whirling Pyschrometer to measure Exhaust air WBT and DBT at each cell.
• Use digital mometer to check cooling water inlet temperature at rises or top of tower.
• Process data on heat exchangers, loads on line or power plant control room readings.
• Check cooling water flow measurements, either direct or inferred from pump motor kW and pump head and flow characteristics,
• Measure cooling tower fan motor amps, volts, kW and blade angle settings
• TDS ( Total Dissolved Solids) of cooling water
• Analyze rated cycles of concentration at the site conditions.
• Observations on nozzle flows, drift eliminators, condition of fills, splash bars etc. 

Analyzing the performance of industrial cooling equipment at technical level is not an easy task. Therefore, contacting engineers of cooling towers is an apt option. They have adequate knowledge to handle technical aspects at ease and can give instant ideas to solve problems, if any.
