“…Since the crosswind could significantly hinder the performance of the heat exchanger located at the lateral sides of the cooling tower by blocking the air pass through the heat exchanger, the simplest way to solve this problem is to place the windbreak wall at lateral sides of the tower, as shown in Figure 2-20(a). This method has been investigated by Zhai [46] and Goodarzi [85]. The cooling performance was reported to be increased by 50% after applying the windbreak wall.…”

“…In the isothermal tests [44][45][46][47][48], the densimetric Fr is neglected and the natural draft effect is modelled by using mechanical fans. The mechanical fans can be installed at the top of the cooling tower, at the throat of the cooling tower or at the bottom of the cooling tower.…”
