Cross Flow Induced Draft Cooling Tower
Points : cross flow induced draft cooling tower
In a cross flow tower as shown in the figure (2), the fan is also located down steam from the fill the top exit.
The fill is installed at the same level as the air in take. Air enters the tower from the fill and the drift
eliminator. Air is then turned upwards and finally discharged at the top exit. Water sprays from the nozzles falls
across the fill and forms a cross flow arrangement with the air stream.
The cross flow induced draft cooling tower has a greater air intakes area because of the cross flow arrangements
the tower can be considerably lower the counter flow tower. However the risk of recirculation of tower exhaust air
increases.
