Abstract The paper proposes a computational method to study and test the relationship between shape performance for built environment, sustaining use of smart geometry support design operation. A comprehensive working principles hyperboloidical cooling tower is presented. case in Marghera (Venice), 1938 explored.

Sasol One abstracts large volumes of water from various sources, such as the Zuikerbosch & Vaal River for various applications including make-up to the cooling water systems. In an attempt to evaluate the use of underground MW as an alternative cooling medium, two pilot-scale cooling towers (CTs) were used. Data of five runs (3 weeks each) at different linear flow velocities (LFVs) and cycles o...

The water loss caused by evaporation heat dissipation is non-negligible for a natural draft counter-flow wet cooling tower (NDWCT), which evidently influenced many change factors. Based on Merkel method, the number revised in consideration of effect loss. Taking NDWCTs equipped 300MW and 600MW power plants as experimental objects, mathematical model established predicting NDWCT. accuracy verifi...
