Performance Analysis of an Updraft Tower System for Dry Cooling in Large-Scale Power Plants
An updraft tower cooling system is assessed for elimination of water use associated with power plant heat rejection. Heat rejected from the power plant condenser is used to warm the air at the base of an updraft tower; buoyancy-driven air flows through a recuperative turbine inside the tower. The se...
