Mass, heat and momentum transfer in natural draft wet cooling tower with flue gas discharge

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

The paper presents CFD simulation results of a natural draught wet-cooling tower (NDWCT) with flue gas discharge. The problem considered is mixing of the flue gases with the rising plume and possible corrosion of the tower shell due to acid condensate. A previously developed CFD model of a NDWCT has been used in the analysis. No wind conditions have been assumed and the results have shown that under this condition the corrosion is unlikely to occur.
