The weather is too cold; there are ice columns all around the cooling tower’s circulation pool. Are there any good ways to avoid this? For example, in terms of design or management, staff are now scheduled to break the ice once a week
The atmospheric temperature is low, resulting in high cooling efficiency. Based on this characteristic, the air volume should be appropriately reduced, for example by adjusting the fan blade angle to its minimum, and cooling towers should be put into use in phases. All that’s left is to clean it up; there’s not much you can do.
Self-dissolving ice will do. Specifically, the high-temperature return water pipe is wrapped around the outlet of the cooling tower, and the ice is melted using the return water.
You mean the ice around the cooling tower, right?
Yes, it’s like this once winter arrives; the heat around makes everything covered in ice
Where else can you go if not to the tower? The entire area around the cooling tower is filled with heat and ice
I’ll take a look at this. It seems that this problem has existed since the construction of our old factories; no one paid any attention to it. Now a new factory complex is being built, so it’s a good opportunity to learn from this experience. But it seems that we’ll still follow the same old approach, after all, it’s worked fine all these years. If upgrading requires significant additional costs, then it’s not really convincing
We’ve added some baffles around the cooling tower now, but the effect isn’t very noticeable
