80-01: The Effect of Fan Tip Clearance on Cooling Towers Performance Non Oxidizing Biocides Examples of evaluations of current

Examples of evaluations of current conditions and life expectancy projections are provided for cooling towers owned by Appalachian Power Co

They do this by capturing the water droplets and returning them to the water tower

This paper reviews the operation of these systems since the 1981 address

80-01: The Effect of Fan Tip Clearance on Cooling Towers Performance Non Oxidizing Biocides Examples of evaluations of currentOne of the parameters that affect the performance of axial flow fans of induced draft cooling towers is the clearance between the tip of the fan blade and the fan stack. Fan performance in turn influences the behavior of the cooling tower as a whole. Very little full scale information is available to indicate the magnitude of the effect of tip clearance on cooling tower performance. This paper presents test data taken on actual cooling tower
