A novel layout of air-cooled condensers to improve thermo-flow performances

Ambient winds are generally unfavorable to the thermo-flow performances of air-cooled condensers in power plants. More emphases are placed to weaken the negative effects of ambient winds, but no layout alternative of air-cooled condensers is considered. In this work, a novel vertical arrangement of air-cooled condensers is proposed on the basis of a 2 × 600 MW direct dry cooling power plant, which can weaken the adverse wind effects and utilize...
