Abstract :
This paper describes three cooling tower evaluation indicators. By using three different evaluation methods which includes the contrast method of cooling water, cooling capability and efficiency coefficient, the performance of cooling towers is evaluated. Compare and analyze the evaluation results, we find they are not consistent. This paper analyzes the causes of different results, summarizes the application scopes and limitations of each evaluation indicator and puts forward some suggestions for the cooling tower evaluation.
