07-24: Living in a Material World DriftThe proper selection of materials of construction is critical to ensuring long life, reduced maintenance, and operational reliability for evaporative cooling equipment. These functional needs must be balanced with the budgetary constraints on each project, both on a first cost and operating cost basis. This paper examines the wide range of materials currently available for components used in open and closed circuit cooling towers as well as

This paper will present current laboratory and field fouling evaluation methods

Sheet pitch (19mm vs
