WATER COOLING METHODS
Warm water discharged near the surface spreads out as a
thin film. The temperature near the surface of a cooling pond

will average about 4 F deg above the bottom temperature. A
The rapidly expanding demand for water is depleting what was once looked upon as an inexhaustible natural resource. The water table is receding in most localities. Communities are finding their present water systems inadequate to supplythe increasing demands of domestic and industrial Users. Heavy industrialisation along flowing streams causes pollu tion. The temperature of the water that may be discharged into the stream is frequently limited in order to protect wild life. Many cities do not have adequate sanitary or storm sewers to handle cooling water. As a result of the increasing
suction pipe located at the bottom of the pond will not with draw water at the temperature of the lowest stratum. A hydraulic gradient is set up which withdraws water from all strata, and the intake temperature will be about 2 F deg be low the surface temperature. The heat dissipation is a func tion of wind velocity and the temperature difference between water surface and the dry-bulb temperature. Fig. 1 is a typi cal performance chart for lake cooling, with wind velocity measured 5 ft above water level. Throne* has developed ad ditional charts for other conditions. The heat dissipation of a
demand and the lack of an adequate supply or disposal sys
tem, users are being forced to conserve water by using recircu
lating systems. Heat must be removed from the circulating
water by some type of water cooling apparatus.
Rivers and Lakes
Plante located on flowing streams can use a once-througb syBtem, discharging the heated water downstream from the intake to prevent mixing. Intake screens and sometimes set tlingbasins, are needed to remove debris. The intake structure must be designed to handle flow conditions varying from flood stage to the minimum flow during periods of drought. The operation can be hampered during cold weather by ice clogging of the intake or by ice jams restricting the flow of the stream. Since water treatment is seldom economical, scale and corro sion may be a problem. Intermittent chlorination may be used, however, to control the growth of slime and algae on heat exchanger surfaces. If the stream temperature becomes too high, it may be necessary to cool the effluent before dis charging it into the stream.
Lakes or ponds may also be used as a source of cooling water.1 The water temperature in lakes or streams tends to follow the average dry-bulb temperature of the surrounding
