78-03: Examination of the Sensitivity of Spray Cooling to Wind Speed andSpray cooling systems have been employed at multiple power plant sites for condenser cooling as well as for ultimate heat sinks. Unlike cooling towers, the air water interaction in a spray system is typically uncontrolled and strongly a function of ambient wind speed. Although an alternative method of cooling, very few spray systems are presently in use. Therefore, little data are available which examine their sensitivity to wind speed and direction.
