ABSTRACT:
A counter-flow forced-draft type cooling tower comprising an outer structure, the top of which has an opening, a centrifugal fan which is an integral part of a rotatable cylinder. The rotatable cylinder has numerous small apertures. A screen which is coaxial with the cylinder. A motor mounted underneath the cylinder which rotates the cylinder. An annular corrugated water guiding plate on the side wall of the outer structure, an inclined water collecting plate under the water guiding plate. Ventilation louvers which are disposed underneath the outer structure. A water tank which is disposed under the louver to collect the cooled water and which has a floating valve to control the amount of water contained therein. The lower provides an inlet for outside air. The air then flows upwards, and is sucked into the rotating cylinder by the centrifugal fan, which also slings hot water radially out of the cylinder. Next the air goes out through the opening of the top cover. A spraying head which sprays water into the cylinder comprising the centrifugal fan. A guiding plate and a water collecting plate for controlling water flow.
