TP25-27 Environmental Consequences of Evaporative Cooling RestrictionsIn the face of the most severe drought in 1,200 years, local authorities in Las Vegas and Henderson, Nevada have restricted the use of evaporative cooling systems in the name of conservation. Proponents of the moratorium cite the severe drought involving the Colorado River which supplies ninety percent of the water to southern Nevada while urging that businesses should convert water guzzling evaporative cooling systems to mechanical air conditioning

For several years many cooling towers have been designed with a plume abatement device to reduce or eliminate plume formation under some weather conditions (mainly in winter)

and outlines how it can be efficiently employed in practice

This presentation highlights the use of laser scanning (LiDAR) and high-resolution 360-degree imaging as powerful tools for non-invasive evaluation

the availability during winter periods and the ageing of the heat exchange equipment
