Formation of Film Flow in Enthalpy Exchanger with Channels of Hexagonal Shape

Abstract

Streamlined and economic mode of reduction of fresh water’s consumption is application of cooling towers in circulation water system. To address existing problems in the course of maintenance of cooling towers with existing filled columns offered regular packing, consisting from hexagonal compartment, in each of which is placed spiral cell. There was presented pilot installation for investigation of flowing in the channel of hexagonal shape of developed packing. There was conducted analysis of received relationship of water distribution on edge of hexagonal channel on air flow rate at different water flow rate and air feed angle. There was draw conclusion on advisability of use of developed device in apparatus for heat exchange process.
