The water-saving design of Model HXV makes it suited for applications where water is scarce or expensive, or plume is a concern. 

A webinar series focused on industrial and HVAC evaporative cooling is being offered by SPX Cooling Technologies.

As the number of data centers in the United States increases, the need to efficiently cooling those systems does as well. The computer power within the data systems generates heat, making cooling a building system requirement.

With our Process Cooling 2020 index, you can revisit articles from this past year at a glance as we head into 2021.

It is a common question during the early design phase of most large mechanical systems: “Is open-loop or closed-loop cooling equipment better suited for this project?”

Evaporative cooling towers for refineries, power plants and process cooling facilities, among other locations, are the focus of a webinar series from SPX Cooling Technologies.

Factory engineered, mounted, piped and wired for open cooling towers, Smart Shield can be used to protect evaporative cooling water applications.

Accuchiller TCF chiller uses a hybrid-film evaporator to provide the energy efficiency of wet (flooded) systems in a compact footprint using less refrigerant. Flooded evaporative systems immerse copper water tubes in liquid refrigerant; by contrast, hybrid-film evaporation systems use a thin film of refrigerant to achieve energy efficiency with less refrigerant. 

Cooling towers exchange the heat contained in the circulating water by spreading out the water over a large surface area and bringing air into contact with the surface of the water. 

Evaporative cooling towers are one of the best long-term solutions for industrial cooling challenges. They offer advantages when compared to a dry cooler, notes one manufacturer. In a white paper, Gary Dicker, the director of DHD Cooling, offers his view on the two cooling technologies.
