Abstract:Evaporative cooling are systems commonly used in thermoelectric plants to cool the air at gas turbines inlet, improving the performance of these engines. In adiabatic saturator, or ideal evaporative cooling, the water-air equilibrium temperature, that occurs when the process effectiveness is maximum, depends only on the atmospheric air properties. However, other factors such as, the water temperature that supplies the evaporative cooling and the ratio between the mass flows of water and air, also affect the eq… Show more
