A cooling tower is the most useful device available to industry for dissipating large heat loads at a reasonable cost. Water is usually available, it is inexpensive, and it provides an excellent heat-transfer medium within certain temperature limitations. Many things can be done to...
The scope of this publication is a guide that covers mechanical draught cooling tower fans and fin fans as used in industrial air cooled heat exchangers. It excludes small fractional-kilowatt drives provided as part of proprietary equipment, e.g. analysers, laboratory...
Preface The purpose of this guide is to help building owners understand what district cooling is and why they should consider it when deciding how to meet the cooling needs of their building(s). The guide also explains what is different about buildings that are served by district...
1.1 This test method describes a simple procedure for the quantification of culturable, waterborne bacteria in potable water (drinking water, bottled water, and dental water, for example) and non-potable waters (cooling towers, for example). 1.1.1 The EasyDisc2, 3 plate format is...

Rules for this Code Section have been developed considering the needs for applications that include piping typically found in electric power generating stations, industrial and institutional plants, geothermal heating systems, and central and district heating and cooling systems. This Code...
The equipment and materials in a cooling tower are subjected to a harsh environment and usually a less than ideal inspection program. This chapter deals with the cooling tower inspection format, associated equipment and material problems, and suggested inspection and...
1.1 This practice describes procedures for conducting comprehensive surveys of buildings and facilities for the purpose of locating, identifying, quantifying, and assessing asbestos-containing materials. 1.2 The results of a Comprehensive Building Asbestos Survey are intended to be used for ongoing...
The definitive reference on the role of steam in the operation of power plants for electric generation and industrial process applications. For more than 80 years, Steam Plant Operation has been an unmatched source of information on steam power plants, including design, operation, and...
Purpose. The purpose of this report is to disseminate information and guidance to Army installations to help minimize Legionella contamination in building water systems. This document generally focuses on the maintenance aspects of building water systems with respect to Legionellosis. Though...
The mechanical equipment in a cooling tower is subjected to a harsh environment and usually a less than ideal inspection program. This chapter deals with the mechanical equipment for a cooling tower, associated equipment problems, and the different ways of access to the...
The solar updraft tower (also: Solar Chimney) power technology (SUTPT) is simple, robust, sustainable, and a long lasting technology, producing electric power from solar radiation with low maintenance cost and no cooling water. A SUTPT plant will provide electric power over...
HVAC Water Chillers and Cooling Towers: Fundamentals, Application, and Operation, Second Edition explores the major improvements in recent years to many chiller and cooling tower components that have resulted in improved performance and lower operating costs. This new...
Introduction The water-usage systems addressed in this standard are as follows. (Note: this list covers all piping systems in residential and office buildings; it is not applicable to industrial facilities.) GROUP I: The predominant water-usage systems in most buildings consisting of potable water...
1.1 This practice describes procedures for conducting comprehensive surveys of buildings and facilities for the purpose of locating, identifying, quantifying, and assessing asbestos-containing materials. 1.2 The results of a Comprehensive Building Asbestos Survey are intended to be used for ongoing...
The HVAC Systems Commissioning Manual is intended to cover the full range of HVAC equipment and systems typically found in commercial and institutional buildings. The level of commissioning varies to suit the specific requirements of each project as determined by the owner. The manual describes in...
PURPOSE AND SCOPE. This UFC provides an overview of industrial water treatment operations and management. As used in this UFC, the term "industrial water" refers to the water used in military power generation, heating, air conditioning, refrigeration, cooling, processing, and all other...
