76-07: Emergency Shutdown Cooling Towers Considerations in the Evolution ofThis paper discusses the various regulatory requirements and criteria governing the design of emergency shutdown cooling towers for nuclear power plants. The effects of key tower parameters, e. g., wet bulb temperature, flow rates, and heat load on tower size and their interactions with system and safety requirements are explored. The evolution of the Seabrook Station tower and its relationship to a companion cooling water source (the Atlantic Ocean)

3) analyze the distributed effects of applied loads

such as drinking water

This paper discusses techniques for online and offline cleaning of cooling towers including galvanized towers

the creation of a lightning protection standard specific to cooling towers should be created to both correct these deficiencies on future projects as well as upgrade existing systems

A large semi-closed cooling water system was created ten years ago and since has had aggressive corrosion attack particularly on carbon steel surfaces

The characteristics of the LDB populations were compared to the biocide treatment and type of tower fill

utilizing a unique

which had to be taken technically

drift eliminators and adding a cross-flow section

that an appropriate water treatment program is in place

reduced energy consumption

The testing program embraced a variety of cooling tower designs and types of fill
