Based on the thermodynamics principle, this paper presents the heat and mass transfer simulation model of countflow cooling tower. Combining the experimental data, the outlet cooling water temperatures are simulated and the relative errors between the calculated results and the experimental results are not beyond 2%, so the precision of the model is validated. It provides the references for the verifying calculations and applications of energy-saving controlling measures in the countflow cooling towers.
