Abstract

The thermal effect experiments were carried out of a direct air-cooled system in the low speed wind tunnel. The influence of effect factors on recirculation is also discussion, after that the relationship between the thermal flow field structure and recirculation ratio under the cooling tower is analyzed. At last, the engineering measures to reduce or avoid recirculation are proposed. For certain conditions the experimental measurement shows close agreement with numerical values.
