Experimental Investigation on Copper Cooled Specialized Direct Contact Heat Exchanger (Cooling Tower)

Abstract

Our cooling tower operate on the principle of removing heat from water by evaporating a small portion of water passed through the copper U-tubes in the unit. The heat that is removed is called the latent heat of vaporization. When air is blown from the air blowing chamber it passes through the solid balls and comes in direct contact with the water droplets which in turn takes away heat from the water to the exhaust. We have also introduced some innovative methods to lower the temperature of water at a faster rate which are discussed here. Baffle plates at the outlet, pressed plate at the sides of the containing chamber, solid balls, water inlet through the copper U-tubes are our new innovations which significantly reduces the temperature of water and increases the efficiency upto 93% with better performance of bringing down the temperature of water upto room temperature of 27°C than normal cooling towers.
