Wooden Cooling Tower

Wooden Cooling Tower are designed to handle water with high levels of dissolved solids (TDS). Hot water from the source is sprayed over special nozzles in a collection basin, then trickles down through a packing material called fill media. As air is drawn through this fill media, it absorbs heat from the water, causing some of the water to evaporate. This warm, moist air is then pulled through a fan and discharged into the atmosphere. The cooled water collects at the bottom of the tower and is recirculated back to the heat source.

Materials Used in

  • The Structure is made of timber with hardware in options of MS/HDG or Stainless steel.

  • Timber is an organic , non-polluting and naturally occurring renewable building material ensuring the timber-cooling tower is as environmentally friendly as it can get.

  • The timber is chemically treated with IS-401 to protect the structure from decay and attack by termites and other micro-organisms.

  • These types of cooling towers are cost effectiveness and economic life cycle.

Parts and Components

Fan Assembly

Induced draft axial type fan assembly with pitch adjustable fan blades. Fan blades material could be FRP Aluminium extrusion or Aluminium alloy. Fan hub material is H.D.G.Steel.

Driveshaft

The driveshaft transmits power from the motor to the gear reducer. It must be highly corrosion-resistant, well-balanced, and capable of handling significant torque and misalignment. Operating within the tower, it endures long-term cyclical operation and occasional human error.

Drive Shaft Wooden Cooling Towers

Target Nozzle

The Target nozzle is an injection-molded polypropylene unit with an integral target diffuser and a snap-on insert. It comes in three lengths: 2.625″ for unobstructed releases, 4.875″ for larger industrial towers or clogging concerns, and 6.875″ for clearing obstructions. Proper placement ensures optimal water distribution over the cooling tower fill.

Electrical Fan Motor

Electrical Fan Motor Is Specially Designed for Cooling Tower Application. Has Low Rpm, Long Shaft Fitment and Vertical Mounted for Better Airflow, Reducing Vibration and Low Noise Pollution. Test [Total Enclosed Surface Cooled] Insulated Ip-55 Grade with Weatherproof Design Sustain in Bad Weather.

Gear Box

The gearbox reduces motor speed for the cooling tower fan, with a minimum service factor of 2.0 and bearing life over 100,000 hours. Without it, motors would be massive to handle the required torque. The fan operates between 100 to 200 RPM, commonly at 1800 RPM.

Fan Deck

The Wooden Cooling Tower fan deck is horizontal surface found at the top of the tower. The fan Deck is a grade place to soak up the sun. It provides the axis to the various mechanical components of the cooling tower. Depending upon the configuration. The fan deck will be constructed of the plywood / FRP.

The Importance of Cooling Towers in Power Plants

Gear Box

Open gravity type basin made of tongue and grooved treated timber Plank / marine Plywood fitted with polypropylene spiral target nozzles to have uniform hot water Distribution over the entire fill area.

Water Cooler Heat Exchangers

Wooden Frame Structure

Imported Pine Woods Are Used in Casing Structures. Wood is treated for Working in Water and Bad Weather. Structure Is Covered with Asbestos Sheet or FRP Sheet.

Wooden Fills

We use Treated Pinewood Wooden Fills or PVC V Type Splash Bars in our cooling towers for efficient water cooling. The fills enhance cooling by breaking up water droplets and increasing contact time with air. This process increases heat transfer, cooling the water effectively.

Wooden Cooling Towers Fills

Full Grid Support

The fill support grid is made of SS304 and FRP, ensuring durability and corrosion resistance from raw water. It supports water drops’ portability via thin horizontal stripes and is secured in uniformly spaced tiers. These grids are attached with special clips under the water distribution systems and are suitable for all cooling tower sizes.

Drift Eliminator

The Drift Eliminator are used to capture the water droplets in the air steam that otherwise would be lose to the atmosphere. The Drift Eliminator are specially to achieve the maximum efficiency in both counter flow and cross flow cooling tower application with various product option to minimize the pressure drops.
Materials Used:
Treated Pinewood, UV Resistant , U-PVC

Drift Eliminator

Flow Control Valve

Flow control valves, designed for cooling towers, have capacities of 300 to 2200 m3/h and sizes from 150 to 300 NB. Made of heavy-duty cast iron with stainless steel valve stems, they ensure low head losses. A protective coating resists corrosion.

Wooden/FRP/Asbestos Louver

The standard cladding of profile corrugated asbestos cement sheet, the joints of which are lapped to shed water only inside the cooling tower. Louvers are supported and positioned by combination tower columns and louvers supports.

Other Cooling Towers We Manufacturer

Square Type Cooling Tower

Square Type Cooling Tower functions on the principle of induced draft counter flow operation. The fan generates vertical air movement that flows upwards on the tower and across the fills, opposing the water flow.

Square Type Cooling Towers

Round Type Cooling Tower

The Round Type Cooling Tower, constructed from FRP, boasts resistance to corrosion, resilience against extreme vibrations, and the ability to withstand high wind loads. Its design emphasizes efficiency

Round Cooling Towers

Closed Circuit Cooling Tower

Closed Circuit Cooling Tower is a type of heat exchanger that combines the functions of a cooling tower and a heat exchanger

Closed Circuit Cooling Tower

Cross Flow Cooling Tower

Cross flow cooling towers is a cooling system where air flows horizontally through the tower while water flows vertically downward.

Cross Flow Cooling Towers

Dry Cooling Tower

Dry Cooling Towers is a type of cooling system used in industrial and power generation processes to remove excess heat without the need for water.

Dry Cooling Towers

Evaporative Cooling Tower

Evaporative cooling tower are devices used to remove excess heat from industrial processes, power plants, and HVAC systems by using the principle of water evaporation.

Evaporative Cooling Towers

Natural Draft Cooling Tower

Natural draft cooling towers are a type of cooling tower that uses the natural convection of air to cool water.
