    A review study on cooling towers; Types, performance and application
    (Alanya Alaaddin Keykubat Üniversitesi, 2019) Afshari, Faraz; Dehghanpour, Heydar
    Temperature control is a significant requirement inthe most industrial process. In this regard, cooling towers are key parts ofmany power plant installations. Operation of the cooling tower as heatrejection device is based on a principle where waste thermal energy isextracted from hot water to the atmosphere using relatively cool and dry air. Inthis study, a review study is carried out to investigate different types ofcooling towers, their application, performance, usage and working principles,which can be useful in the field of nuclear plants as well as other energystations. A number of investigations have been considered to reveal differencesbetween the used cooling towers and finally a Fluent simulation has been carriedout to examine major contours and flow field around the cooling tower.

    ABAQUS modeling and investigation of nuclear central cooling tower reinforced by CFRP
    (Alanya Alaaddin Keykubat Üniversitesi, 2019) Dehghanpour, Heydar; Afshari, Faraz; Yılmaz, Kemalettin
    Concrete is recognized as the most ideal material forconstruction of cooling towers. Because it isa relatively durable material to certain chemical environments, gases and high temperatures but, being a brittle material, concrete is damagedwhen subjected to tensile and flexural stresses. Inaddition, tensile and flexural stresses in high structures such as towers arecaused by horizontal loads such as wind loads. Therefore, it is important toexamine the materials used in such serious structures and the repair materialsto be applied after construction. In this study, it is aimed to simulate asuper-large reinforced concrete cooling tower using ABAQUS program as a sheet, by considering previous studies on the structure ofcooling towers. In the models, the strain and stressbehaviors against the wind load were investigated by reinforcing the middlezone of the tower by carbon fiber reinforcedpolymer (CFRP) sheets in different thicknesses.
