Description

The deployment of concentrating solar thermal (CST) power plants in arid areas necessitates the use of dry cooling systems to reject heat from the condenser. Previous research has shown that the capacity of short natural draft dry cooling towers (NDDCTs), used as condensers for CST plants, can be significantly influenced by the prevailing wind condition. From the literature, it is apparent that there is a lack of work relating to how the interactions between multiple cooling towers during win...
