Evaluation of the Hot Air Recirculation Effect and Relevant Empirical Formulae Applicability for Mechanical Draft Wet Cooling Towers

Due to the hot air recirculation, the inlet air enthalpy h1 of mechanical draft wet cooling towers (MCTs) was usually greater than the ambient air enthalpy ha. To realize the cooling performance and accurate design of MCTs, this paper clarified the feasibility of the inlet air enthalpy empirical for...
