Heat rejection or cooling devices are an integral part of every facility producing extreme heat. Without sufficient cold water, plant performance is decreased, tur- bine efficiency is reduced, process production slows, and machinery operates under heat stress. When choosing an evaporative cooling tower design it is important to know the fundamentals of cooling tower performance and selection. The CTD team strives to provide the right cooling tower every time based on your specific design criteria. CTD will decipher and blend all of the variables and then design a cooling tower that produces the cold water needed to meet your thermal and budgetary requirements. COUNTERFLOW AND CROSSFLOW TOWERS There are two basic types of field-erected tower designs offered today, the traditional crossflow design or the more contemporary counterflow design. Many elements play into determining what type of tower is appropriate for each end user and CTD will conduct a full evaluation to establish the correct tower design for your application. Our engineers pay special attention when choosing the correct component that is the best fit for your tower design. It is imperative we define each of the major areas affecting performance. PERFORMANCE DRIVEN DESIGN The experts at CTD take all contributing factors into account when designing every custom tower. We begin with your design requirements, ambient wet bulb temperature, altitude, water flow rate, water inlet and outlet temperatures to thermally size your tower. We then evaluate the environmental factors, such as the seismic zone, wind loads, snow loads, and all other applicable loads, to provide a structurally sound tower that will withstand these natural forces. By combining all of these factors with the finest materials for construction, we are able to construct a cooling tower that will withstand the test of time, every time.10-Cell Counter鍖ow Tower - Geothermal - New Guinea 12-Cell Counter鍖ow Tower - Gas-Fired Power 9-Cell & 6-Cell Counter鍖ow Towers - Geothermal 9-Cell Counter鍖ow Tower - Power/Wind Tunnel Fan Stacks Drift Eliminators Fans Water Distribution Gearboxes Heat Transfer Media Motors Structure Driveshafts THE RIGHT COOLING TOWER EVERY TIME Nine 2-Cell & One 4-Cell Counter鍖ow Towers - Steel Mill Tile Fill/Low-Fouling/Splash Fill - FRP and Wood

CTDs Counterflow Cooling Towers are a more contemporary tower design. The name is derived by the orientation of the airflow being drawn upward, countercurrent to the falling water. Structurally, counterflow towers can be built from fiberglass, wood or concrete. Typically, the counterflow design is more efficient when compared to its counterpart, the crossflow tower. The simplicity of its rectangular or square cell design, coupled with the installation of high-efficiency film fill, makes the tower more efficient and normally smaller in scope. Additional advantages of the counterflow design are a lower parasitic cost regarding pumping head and fan horsepower, and it is more resistant to icing during winter operation. 6 COUNTERFLOW (CF) PURCHASING PLATFORM

CROSSFLOW (XF) PURCHASING PLATFORM 8 CTDs Crossflow Cooling Towers are a more traditional tower design. The crossflow design is so named due to the orientation of the airflow being drawn into the tower, perpendicular to the falling water. Structurally, crossflow towers can be constructed from fiberglass, wood or concrete. Crossflow towers are customarily used in poor water quality applications where water treatment is minimal and high suspended solids such as, oils or greases are present in the process water. Additional advantages to the crossflow design are the available access to the distribution system and the plenum area of the tower which allows for easy cleaning and inspection of the tower by maintenance personnel.

CTD is the industry leader in the design of plume abated (wet/dry) atmospheric cooling towers. Our plume abated tower designs have been installed in a cross section of industrial applications. The need to install a plume abated cooling tower can range from complying with governmental regulatory requirements to limiting a clients exposure to safety and/or liability risk. CTDs specialized plume abatement design features a simplified hydraulic system which channels the process water first through the dry section, and second through the wet evaporative water distribution section of the tower. The benefit of this simplified hydraulic system is the ease of operation. It also eliminates the need for multiple valves and additional piping and enables the system to drain completely when not in operation preventing potential damage from freezing. In addition, because of the simplified nature of this system, no vacuum pumps are required to assist with its operation. CTDs design is versatile in its utilization of multiple row finned tube bundles that are offered in a variety of corrosion resistant metals. These bundles are combined with an enhanced header box feature and an automated or manually activated damper system. Furthermore, CTDs Outta Sight tower can be designed to utilize steam as the heating source if available. CTD is one of the few cooling tower companies that have operating, automated, plume abatement systems. These systems are equipped with sensors that sample the ambient conditions and automatically activate when the conditions achieve the pre-determined set points. Should you have a need for a plume abated cooling tower as a project requirement, please call on the professionals at CTD who can provide you with a proven and reliable design.

  • 16. CTD is the industry leader in the design of plume abated (wet/dry) atmospheric cooling towers. Our plume abated tower designs have been installed in a cross section of industrial applications. The need to install a plume abated cooling tower can range from complying with governmental regulatory requirements to limiting a clients exposure to safety and/or liability risk. CTDs specialized plume abatement design features a simplified hydraulic system which channels the process water first through the dry section, and second through the wet evaporative water distribution section of the tower. The benefit of this simplified hydraulic system is the ease of operation. It also eliminates the need for multiple valves and additional piping and enables the system to drain completely when not in operation preventing potential damage from freezing. In addition, because of the simplified nature of this system, no vacuum pumps are required to assist with its operation. CTDs design is versatile in its utilization of multiple row finned tube bundles that are offered in a variety of corrosion resistant metals. These bundles are combined with an enhanced header box feature and an automated or manually activated damper system. Furthermore, CTDs Outta Sight tower can be designed to utilize steam as the heating source if available. CTD is one of the few cooling tower companies that have operating, automated, plume abatement systems. These systems are equipped with sensors that sample the ambient conditions and automatically activate when the conditions achieve the pre-determined set points. Should you have a need for a plume abated cooling tower as a project requirement, please call on the professionals at CTD who can provide you with a proven and reliable design.
