When it comes to heat rejection cooling towers are the essential equipment for almost all type of industries. Cooling towers are a special type of heat exchangers where air and water are brought in direct contact with each other to reduce water temperature. cooling tower works on the principle of evaporative cooling. Water is broken …
Open or closed-loop cooling tower, Which is better? Read More »
Ideally, heat should not be released into the atmosphere and it should be recovered for process use. Many times process is not capable of utilizing heat and heat needs to be rejected to the atmosphere to keep the process operational. As in the case of cooling tower, cooling water temperature cannot be reduced to below …
Counter and crossflow cooling towers are the two different types of cooling towers based on the airflow pattern. In a counterflow cooling tower, air and water movement are opposite to each other while in a crossflow cooling tower flow of airflow is horizontal and water flow is verticle. Both the cooling towers are having their …

Centrifugal Pumps are significant energy consumers for many process industry. It is essential to operate pump at it best operating efficiency for minimum power consumption. With the advancement of technology large capacity centrifugal pumps are now available with above 90% efficiency. While auditing large no of pumps it is found that only few pumps are …
Wind turbines are the machines used to convert wind (Kinetic energy) to electrical energy. On contrary to fans where electrical energy is converted to wind, in wind turbines winds are made to rotate fans and energy is produced. Wind is one of the most common energy available in the earth and developed because of atmospheric …
Compressed air is one of the major power consuming equipment in many process industries. Power saving in compressed air can bring significant energy saving. Let us find ways to improve compressed air system efficiency : – 1.Waste Heat recovery : more than 85% of energy is lost in air compressor as heat. Heat of air …
