Abstract
This test procedure describes the evaluation method used to determine the water consumption performance of cooling towers and evaporative cooling equipment, which provides a unified test instrument, test procedure, parameter measurement, test data processing, and test results. This test procedure provides the manufacturer and the owner an objective and fair evaluation, outlines practical methods for monitoring the water consumption performance of cooling towers. The loss of water in cooling tower is measured by U-type liquidometer, and the law of collecting basin liquid level. When the liquid level of the collecting basin decreased by 1 mm, the water quantity loss of one cooling tower diameter D=42 m was 1.38 m3. And cooling tower water loss and specification for water balance test is established. The water quantity loss of cooling tower can be obtained conveniently, accurately and quickly. This provides conditions for further accurate analysis of water quantity loss of cooling tower, etc. It is widely used and has great significance in the hydraulic design of cooling tower, the analysis of air status in the tower, the water balance test to determine the water used in cooling tower, the reduction of water loss and the drift recovery. And provides explicit test procedures that yield results with the highest level of accuracy and consistent with the best current engineering practices and knowledge in this field.
