The 13 pages that link to Cooling tower, each with the reason it gives.

• ConvectionRelated: Airflow carries heat away from circulating water in a large-scale heat-rejection system.

• Evaporative coolingRelated: Evaporation carries heat away from water in many industrial systems.

• CondenserRelated: It often cools the water that serves as a condenser's heat sink.

• Wet-bulb temperatureRelated: The achievable cooling-water temperature is constrained by the entering air’s wet-bulb temperature.

• Thermal pollutionCompared with: Cooling towers reduce the need to discharge large volumes of heated water into aquatic habitats.

• Waste heatRelated: Power plants and factories use towers to reject heat they cannot use.

• Thermal power stationBroader topic: It rejects some of the cycle’s waste heat to the air.

• Fossil fuel power stationRelated: It helps condense turbine exhaust steam and maintain the station’s water cycle.

• Data center coolingRelated: Cooling towers release heat collected by water-cooled data-center systems.

• Legionnaires' diseaseRelated: Poorly maintained towers can disperse Legionella-containing aerosols over nearby areas.

• Evaporative coolerRelated: It applies evaporative heat transfer to cooling water rather than directly cooling room air.

• LegionellaRelated: Poorly maintained towers can disperse Legionella-containing aerosols over surrounding areas.

• Legionella pneumophilaRelated: Contaminated cooling towers have caused outbreaks through aerosol dispersal.
