70-12: Thermal Performance Evaluation of The Natural Draft Cooling TowerA number of test codes have been written for conventional mechanical draft cooling towers. The natural draft design, however, is fairly new in this country, and USA test procedures for this type are not considered adequate. Within the next few years this gap should be closed by CTI and ASME, now working on the up dating of the test codes ATP 105, "Acceptance Test Procedure for Industrial Water Cooling Towers," and PTC 23, "Atmospheric Water Cooling

and it will give a procedure to be used to compare the relative performance of the fills

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

The cooling towers are installed as helper cooling towers

Ideal clearances are provided by manufacturers to achieve the rated performance

A sequential study was conducted comparing water treatment performance of traditional chemical water treatment and Dolphin "pulsed power" water treatment
