84-10: Cooling Tower Wood Decay Identification, Current Incidence, and ControlHow to identify decay in a wood cooling tower. Where it occurs, what it looks like, and how to determine if it is in your tower. A review of the incidence in Douglas fir "treated" lumber, and how it can be controlled before and after the tower is assembled.

The ability to test the heat exchanger with steam under vacuum rather than hot water makes it unique as well

Samples of the cooling water were collected

The timely removal of such debris form the cooling towers is essential

These limits place an impact on the type of water treatment used in the majority of cooling-tower water systems

and air wet-bulb temperature are presented and discussed for both flow arrangements

The thermodynamics and surface phenomena associated with the water chemistry in scale formation will be delineated

evaporative pre-cooling of the air going to the heat exchanger can be the solution

resistance to chemicals and to environment

their components must be tested individually in test cells designed to that effect

assistances for applications involving the use of gray water for makeup and for implementing in water conservation projects
