23-21: Sizing of Plume Abatement Coils – Part 2 Mechanical Draft Towers

23-21: Sizing of Plume Abatement Coils – Part 2 Mechanical Draft TowersPlume abatement coils are used to reduce prevent visible plumes of moisture exiting a wet cooling tower fan stack. Typically, this is done by mixing in dry, heated ambient air with the moist air stream exiting the drift eliminators. The cold ambient air passes over the airside of the coil and is heated by transferring heat from a hot fluid source flowing on the tube side of the coil. The paper is a follow on to the paper presented in 2022 and will

An example application of a 36” diameter carbon steel pipe with a 100’ axial run under 90 psi with temperature fluctuation of 100°F will be used

We all know that when we turn on a faucet

Fouling or deposition

This is always possible for applications where additional cooling can be accomplished economically at a higher temperature

In the second phase

the entire external surface of the heat exchanger remains dry and as such the heat transfer process for adiabatic coolers is strictly sensible cooling
