This month’s B2B focuses on a new cooling tower to serve a pharmaceutical facility’s new process water system. This tower will be a closed-loop, evaporative condenser to operate 24/7/365. The pharma ...

Evaporative cooling towers play an important role in green buildings by significantly reducing energy consumption when they supplement or replace traditional air conditioning systems, thereby reducing ...

Offshore platform designs need to account properly for elevation changes in the cooling-water systems. The elevation changes directly affect the seawater supply pump’s ability to deliver cooling water ...

Ensuring the availability of water for power plants is a matter of both water quantity and quality. As freshwater becomes less available for power plant use, new supplies from marginal or impaired ...

Researchers in the Netherlands and Singapore have measured irradiance-weighted average temperatures of floating PV systems in both countries and have compared the results with reference rooftop and ...

In part because they are closed-loop systems, it can be easy to ignore power plant cooling water systems that support the reliable functioning of everything from stator bars in the generator to ...

Passive cooling refers to technologies or design features that lower the temperature in spaces without the need for power consumption. The strategy uses free, renewable sources of energy (wind and sun ...

When a fast-moving cold front passed through the Southeast in early spring 2008, it triggered tornadoes and severe thunderstorms throughout the region. One system north of Savannah, Ga., spawned a ...

Failure to sufficiently cool an electronic component will lead to overheating, which can reduce its lifespan or even permanently damage the product’s internal system. Selecting a cooling method for ...
