Description
Summary:Cooling towers dissipate waste heat generated in industrial or domestic processes, thereby reducing the temperature of circulating water. Compared to other cooling methods, it has the advantages of effective cooling, corrosion resistance, and low cost. This paper discusses the application and performance optimization of cooling towers based on a literature review of recent domestic and international studies. It summarizes and analyzes the applications and related research on cooling towers for industrial cooling and building cooling. It also extends and analyzes cooling tower’s application in carbon capture and waste heat recovery. Various methods have been reviewed for performance optimization, including model, structural, and operational optimization. This paper highlights the challenges that still exist in the state-of-the-art and discusses its future development directions, which will facilitate efficient, green, and stable operation for future cooling tower systems.
