Abstract
Cooling efficiency of heat exchangers in conventional large natural draft dry cooling towers (NDDCTs) is often affected by crosswind. In our previous work, it was verified that the crosswind influence is more significant on short NDDCTs (height <30 m) with horizontal heat exchangers than on large towers at a same wind speed. A new tri-blade-like windbreak has been proposed in the tower base to improve the cooling performance. In this paper, a...
