Air-Cooled Heat Exchangers and Cooling Towers Vol.1 & Vol.2

Air-Cooled Heat Exchangers and Cooling Towers- Thermal Vol.1 & Vol.2

Air-Cooled Heat Exchangers and Cooling Towers_ Thermal-Flow Performance Evaluation and Design, Vol. 1 & Vol. 2 represents the most detailed and presenting modern practice and theory relevant to the thermal-flow performance evaluation, design, and optimization and cooling towers. Kroger provides modern analytical and empirical tools used to evaluate the thermal-flow performance and design  He also covers how to prepare improved specifications and evaluate more critical bids with respect to thermal performance of new cooling systems. Further, Kroger explores improvement possibilities with respect to retrofits of existing cooling units as well as possible impacts of plant operations and environmental influences.

In order to be an informed planner or client, it is important to understand the factors that influence the type and thermal-flow design of any cooling system in order to prepare clear and detailed specifications.

The objective of these volumes is to provide modern analytical and empirical tools for evaluation of the thermal-flow performance or design . People who can make use of this information include students, design engineers, manufacturers, contractors, planners, plant managers, and end users. They may be in the fields of air-conditioning, refrigeration, mining, processing, chemicals, petroleum, power generation, and many other industries.

Possible improvements through retrofits of existing cooling units can be determined, and impacts of plant operations and environmental influences can be predicted. Reasons for poor performance will be better understood, and where necessary, a plant can be optimized to achieve the lowest life cycle cost.
