DESCRIPTION
Technical Description
The forced draught wet cooling tower is integrated into the cooling water circuit of the ET 830 steam power plant. It provides recooling for the condenser cooling water used in the steam power plant. Evaporation losses are automatically compensated for. Temperature, air humidity and water flow rate at the inlet and outlet of the cooling tower can be read directly on the device.
The design emphasises the use of corrosion-resistant materials since the cooling tower is usually operated in the open air.
The cooling tower is connected to the electrical system and the water connections of ET 830.
