Cross flow Cooling Tower A Cross flow Cooling Tower is one where air flows horizontally across the falling water, rather than directly opposite to it. How It Works Characteristics Applications
Counter Flow Cooling Tower A Counter flow Cooling Tower is a type of mechanical draft cooling tower where the air flows upward (vertically) against the downward flow of hot water. How It Works Heat Transfer: Since air and water move in opposite directions, there’s a higher temperature difference (ΔT) between them → more efficient cooling...
Forced Draft Cooling Tower A Forced Draft Cooling Tower is a type of mechanical draft cooling tower where the fan is placed at the air inlet (bottom/side). The fan pushes (forces) air into the tower across the fill, and then the air moves upward to mix with the hot water for cooling. Working Principle Features […]
Induced Draft Cooling Tower An Induced Draft Cooling Tower is a mechanical draft cooling tower in which the fan is placed at the top of the tower. The fan pulls (induces) air upward through the fill and discharges it into the atmosphere at a high velocity. It is the most commonly used cooling tower type […]
