When designing cooling tower suction piping, it is absolutely critical that engineers have sufficient NPSH to the condenser water pump and avoid any piping design errors that could cause air to come out of the pumping solution. If either of these becomes a problem…
Read MoreCreating a reasonable load profile is essential for calculating and then comparing lifecycle costs of specific cooling towers, including various brands and/or models within a specific brand. To do that we have to estimate the number of hours a cooling tower will operate at …
Read MoreIn our last blog we ended with this cooling tower life cycle worksheet (shown below) with one data point complete, the 20-year life expectancy of our “example” cooling tower. Now let’s fill in a few more blanks, starting with …
Read MoreBad things happen when sediment collects in the bottom of a cooling tower cold water basin. Really bad. Things like premature equipment failure and downtime, not to mention fairly rapid loss of efficiency. That’s why JMP always recommends including …
Read MoreEvery cooling tower design requires a strategy for supplying make-up water to replace water that is lost due to evaporation, drift or blowdown. This is necessary to maintain the condenser water volume and keep dissolved minerals sufficiently diluted. There are two basic make-up water strategies…
