Abstract
With the wide utilization of a natural draft dry cooling tower (NDDCT) in power generation in arid areas, the degradation of its performance under crosswind conditions is increasingly concerned. Based on the influencing mechanisms of the crosswind, the paper reconstructs the destructed inlet flow field with a labyrinth structure. The effect of the labyrinth structure is firstly assessed by means of a verified computational fluid dynamics (CFD)...
