87-16: Restoration, Testing and Repair of 30-Year Cooling Tower at the Corrosion A numerical model to predict

A numerical model to predict the ice transport and accumulation at the river intake was developed and validated

Actual operating conditions can produce pressure and flow conditions that create significant dynamic piping loads

Unchecked biofouling can lead to shut down cooling water operations and created potential human exposure hazards

The pretreatment and corrosion control program used gave excellent results for biological fouling

87-16: Restoration, Testing and Repair of 30-Year Cooling Tower at the Corrosion A numerical model to predictFour fan cells of a 30 year old, 14 cell crossflow, redwood splash fill tower were selected to install and test PVC V Bar fill. This paper deals with the demolition, installation and unique method of collecting tower off water temperature data to perform a CTI Performance Test. Because of cooling demand the entire 14 cell fan cell tower had to remain in service during the tests.
