Using Aerodynamic Obstacles to Increase the Thermal Performance of Power Plant Cooling Systems Consisting of Air Cooled Condenser, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Darbandi, Massoud (Supervisor)
Abstract
According to the recent researches it has been found that wind can reduce the efficiency of Air Cooled Condensers (ACC) which use for cooling purposes in power plants. Wind affects the natural suction of the cooling air and makes local low pressure area in fan’s inlet results to disrupt its normal performance. Using aerodynamic obstacles inside and around the condensers can compensate this lack of performance when there is strong wind. In this thesis with the aid of computational fluid dynamics, condenser’s behavior with various weather situations is studied. Simulation in no wind situation and different wind speeds is considered and accomplished with Gambit Fluent software. This simulation...
