98-14: Fill Fouling in Counterflow Cooling Towers: Experimental & Field Thermal Performance Pareto’s Principle was often followed

Pareto’s Principle was often followed if not strictly applied

lowering environmental impact

Effective microbiological control can be achieved by monitoring microbial levels as well as actual micro biocide treatment levels

and flat magnet measured under controlled laboratory conditions and correlates that with actual data collected on machinery in the field

There are several factors that need to be addressed prior to determining the appropriate cooling tower system for a facility with critical demands

98-14: Fill Fouling in Counterflow Cooling Towers: Experimental & Field Thermal Performance Pareto’s Principle was often followedAccelerated equal basis lab testing is used for comparative fouling tests on second generation Low Clog fills, optimizing their thermal low fouling capabilities for a specific cooling duty water condition. Fill selection guidelines are given. Tower application experience, including petrochemical, sugar, paper, geothermal power, and conventional power (surface and salt water cooled). Is reviewed for first generation low fouling designs. Cleaning
