Abstract: | Cooling water costs can often be reduced by utilizing impure sources of water, such as the sea. The use of seawater generally involves a closed-cycle freshwater primary circuit, a type of cooling that, although saving on water, requires special design techniques in order to optimize the process. These techniques are discussed and examples are given of large and small installations currently in operation. |
