Dry Cooling Towers vs. Wet Cooling Towers: Key Differences Cooling towers are essential for rejecting waste heat in industrial and HVAC systems. The two main types—dry (air-cooled) and wet (evaporative) cooling towers—differ in operation, efficiency, and applications. Below is a detailed comparison. 1. Basic Working Principle Parameter Dry...

Wet Bulb Temperature vs. Ambient (Dry Bulb) Temperature Understanding the difference between wet bulb temperature (WBT) and ambient (dry bulb) temperature (DBT) is crucial for cooling tower performance, HVAC design, and industrial cooling processes. 1. Definitions Parameter Definition How It’s Measured Ambient Temperature (Dry...

Cooling Tower Water Flow Rate vs. Size: Key Factors & Sizing Guide The size of a cooling tower is directly influenced by the water flow rate (measured in m³/hr or GPM) it needs to handle. Below is a breakdown of how flow rate affects cooling tower dimensions, capacity, and selection.  Flow Rate vs. Cooling Tower...
