Coverage appears to be restricted to wet cooling towers. It is unclear whether cost information is included although there is a Section on Specifications and Bid Analysis. A complete treatment of the theory and calculational methods is provided. Balogh, Andras and Z. Takacs. Developing Indirect Dry Cooling Systems for Modern Power Plants. 98. Notes: Description of the Heller-type indirect dry cooling systems placed on the Web by EGI Contracting/Engineering Co. Ltd., a Hungarian company now a division of GEA, which builds and installs these systems. Reasonably detailed but qualitative information is provided on the design and operation of the system and comparison to conventional wet tower and air- cooled condensers. No cost information is provided. No references. Bartz, J. A. Dry cooling of power plants: a mature technology? Power Engineering . 88. Notes: Review and brief description of some existing dry cooling tower installations in South Africa and other foreign countries and a qualitative projection of future U.S. requirements for the technology. Gives a short description of the ammonia phase change system which was being developed by EPRI and USDOE at that time and a short discussion of performance issues with conventional wet cooling. No references. Beck, A. and M. Schaal. Water Requirements of an Inland Nuclear Power Station: Engineering and Economic Aspects. Desalination 40, 19-24 (1982). Notes: Cost comparison of alternative cooling systems for a 950 MWe nuclear power plant in Israel. Costs were estimated for four cases: wet cooling with fresh water; wet cooling with sea water make-up; wet/dry cooling and dry cooling. It was concluded that it was more economical to desalt sea water for make-up to a wet tower than to use dry cooling. The most economical alternative was to design a wet tower with the capability of accepting sea water as make-up. 4 references. Bonger, R. and R. Chandron. New Developments in Air-cooled Steam Condensing. EPRI TR- 104867, Paper 18. 95. Palo Alto, CA, EPRI. Notes: Review of dry cooling systems and a more detailed treatment of natural draft air-cooled condensers and the single row condenser (SRC) using a elliptical tube which was just being introduced at that time. Economic comparison criteria were simplified but clearly stated and detailed designs for the compared cases were presented. Direct dry cooling systems were found to be substantially cheaper than indirect systems and natural draft systems cheaper than mechanical draft for the direct cases. The elliptical tube, single row condenser was shown to have significant performance advantages. No references. Bukowski, Joe. Taking the Heat off Industrial Processes. Consulting-Specifying Engineer , 46- 50. 95. Notes: An elementary, introductory article of heat rejection alternatives, primarily for industrial applications. Identifies a few rules-of-thumb and general guidelines for initial choices of preferred systems for particular applications and environments. No quantitative information for comparing systems.
