Energy Conservation in Cooling Systems at Metallurgical Plants

Resumo

There are many large fans currently in use in different sectors of industry, and replacing them at the end of their service life is an important issue. Most existing fans are made of metals, but plans are in place to replace them with fans made of composites. The use of new materials and the design of fan blades with new shapes will make it possible to reduce the weight of the structure, thus also reducing energy costs and making the operation of cooling towers more efficient. The development and introduction of new fan materials and designs can be aided by the use high-performance computer systems and advanced software programs.
