I’ve been doing HVAC for 15 years and even I learned a few new things on this video….
Great content and keep up the great work
Hello from 2023! You run one of the best (or is it the best?) engineering UA-cam channels. Especially, your EE series are a piece of art, can't tell you how useful those are to me! Thank you a lot!
Learn how *COOLING TOWERS, AHU and CHILLERS* work together: ua-cam.com/video/1cvFlBLo4u0/v-deo.html
This is one of the most well thought out easy to digest, and incredibly visualized presentations I’ve ever seen. Great work!
thanks for our time. finally, I understand the cooling tower. I did not find any vid that explains the cooling tower like this. thanks again and keep up the great work
Thank you so much for your sharing! Among all the videos this is the most simple&easiest to understand!
Thanks man ever since I subscribed I have been learning so much I have a project on chillers thank u
great video nicely explained keep up the great work.

Thank you so much for all your videos. Really very well done! Great and easy to follow
Great video! How about some maintenance video on for example, how to service a building pressurisation unit and expansion vessels? Or how to clean out a calorifier? Thanks!
Nice and to-the-point presentation... As always... 👍
After watching tons of videos and reading lots of mechanical engineering books and especially hvac systems, this was the neatest explanation that I have had during 6 years of experience in the industry.
Nicely explained with real pictures of each component. Also plz share a video on VAM.
AMAZING!!! VERY SIMPLE EXPLANATION...thank you!
You blitzed this one!! Bravo!
Thanks sir. Thanks is a small word for this great work.
Thank you so much for providing such a useful video.
A very informative video, this took my cursor straight to subscribe. I believe there is still a lot to learn here. thank you
thankyou!! the best explaination
So very informative. Thank you. 🙏🏽 I’ve been working around these things a couple years now and your videos make sense of it all. Stationary Engineers and Operators!
makes alot of sense thank you so much for the information!
Thank you Paul for the great explanation, as always. Can you please make one more video for Closed-circuit cooling towers, and how they're different from open cooling towers?
Very good, thank you.
Thanks guys for uploading this video. You guys are better than my instructor.
Really very helpful video !!
Really great video, thankyou 👍🏻
Great detail video really helps a lot
Great video as always. Thank you.
Well explained and very helpful. Thanks.
+François-Philippe Paradis Glad you enjoyed it
Great Video, Please make a video Maintenance of the Hvac System
I used this video to learn English terminology (of cooling towers); perfect! Thank you!
Excellent presentation.
Thank you for your videos :)
Thank You Very much Sir!
Very nice explain thank u
very informative

very perfect 3D model
Thanks again mate.
Very well explained. Thank you
really great video explaination is awsome keep up great work , and one request make the sound better
I just got a project on study of cooling tower and efficiency improvement. This is great video for basic starting. Subscribed.
Can you share your study?
Excellent Video!
thank you so much Paul, very clear
\
Absolutely wonderful presentation!
Thank you, Charles. Glad you enjoyed it, plenty more on the way.

great information
Thankyou very much paul! You explained everything very clear! I promise to buy you a coffee! Hahahah
bouta pass my quiz bc of this 😈😈😈
Subscribed, amazing video mate!
Thank you sir
Drain for draining the system for preventive maintenance, float valve for make up water to maintain water level at the basin to prevent air pocketing.
All your videos are interesting!!!!
Thank you for video like this ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!
awesome video ty
Thank you
There is also water jet oriented towards the thins.
The tower cleans itself.
Thank's for sharing
Thanks a lot, nice and clear explanations. Curious question: what is the software you use to do these wonderful presentations?
Very well made video
Good job.
Please kindly write the basic equations used in design the cooling towers. ( simple and practical forms).
Yo bro when I mean I’m so grateful to have came across this video. I am in the field as we speak. I feel like a rookie, but this just gives any more knowledge to what I need to know. Thank you if there’s a way I can ever reach out to you please let me know.💪🏿🤙🏿
Great video
great video! support
Thank you so much! Maybe you could make a discord server for your channel? Would love to join one and discuss your videos with other fans! Keep it up, especially on HVAC topics! Please!
You are making so helpful and successfully videos hvac kindly make vrf system video

What are your observations between open and closed loop cooling towers, as to their cooling efficiencies?
Hey great video!! I had a doubt though how does the drift eliminator exactly help in condensing the warm air being sucked by the fan.
It collides with the surface so the impact and pressure change, the material will be a cooler temperature also.
can you make a separate video for Air separator in Hvac system
This is channel is simple AWESOME, helped me a lot||||
Could you please increase the volume.
好喜欢这个视频,图画的很直观。可惜听不太懂,英语太差。XIE XIE .感恩。
What is the difference between a fluid cooler and a cooling tower and why would I choose one over the other.
I have seen some sites that have both types. Not sure why
Super sir
what part if any does evaporation play?
Good
Is there a fan in the bottom by the base to get the ambien air inside the cooling tower is it just pulled from you top fan
most have fans on the top but some will use ground mounted fans which sit at the side and blow air inside, these are usually used when the cooling tower would exceed height restrictions for local building regulations so shorter towers are needed
I've seen some of your more current videos, and they are much better than this. You should update this one with some engineering and design calculations as well as the physics behind the actual heat dissipation and water evaporation
Very niece sir 🇮🇳👍
What is the problem if heat rejection smaller than 200kw? but in/out temperatures and water flow rate are the same.
If there is multi cell cooling tower then will there be a separate float valve for each cell or one float valve is enough for multi cell cooling tower?
There are many ways to do it, there could be several towers connected together and a pipe running between all to balance the water level too
Hello my friend, why in the cooling towers that go on the roofs, it is assumed that the refrigerant that is in temperatures around 30 ° C, having contact with the ambient air that is supposed to be at a lower temperature, the coolant will give it heat , But what happens if the ambient temperature is higher, say 35 ° c, the process does not work? Am I understanding the concept well?
These are just typical temperatures. The system will be designed to meet local requirements. If it can't dump heat into the air then the chiller will fail although the temperature can be increased, check with manufacture before doing so
There are also round cooling towers
Where does the water go when it's drained ? Is it reused somewhere or does it just go to the sewer? Also, where does the new, fresh water come from? If the building is connected to the city water supply, is that where the new water comes from? Is that usually connected at the chiller ?
It goes to the sewer, it comes from the water main. It enters near the pressurisation unit. See our video on chilled water schematics
@@EngineeringMindset thank you. I'm taking my RMO exam from FDNY. I'm watching all your videos in order..many people told me these videos helped them a lot to pass the exam
Hi, if the water supply to the cooling tower (specified on the chiller's schematic) is 2000L/h, does that mean that 2000L of warm water are lost to the environment every hour? Is it worth trying to recover somehow? (asking for an academic group project that aims to recover heat/water from a chiller)
Thank you..
No it will recycle the water, a much smaller amount is lost to evaporation. You can reclaim some heat yes.
Question that seems very basic here... What is the difference between a cooling tower and a fluid cooler. Working in residential now everyone calls these towers fluid coolers, and that its different than cooling towers in commercial. Any info is appreciated, have not got a complete answer yet.
my building is about 30 yrs old and our bypass is pneumatic but even after watching this i still dont have a full concept of what the need is for the bypass... our pnumatic operations are being slowly phased out and changed to digital but if anybody reading this knows please fill me in
How to calculate water loss in cooling tower as a rule of thumb
rough rule of thumb we use- 1% of the flow for every 10degF just for evap
Dédicace a tous les BTS FED qui viennent voir cette vidéo pour faire l'oral d'anglais TECH . Une pensée pour vous :)
PS : moi je l'ai eu ;)
Great video. But I had to up the speed to 1.25 to get through it.
why does water evaporate? If the intended purpose for the water is to get colder instead of hotter?
Baltimore Aircoil International?
So this is kind of like a giant swamp cooler except the air that is returned to the room would be dry?
You have some very good vids but you need to speak louder, very hard to hear with my computer volume at 100%
so is this an open circuit then
Yes this is an open circuit, the condenser water leaves the pipe and is sprayed into the air of the cooling tower.
How to maintain cooling tower
Please help.. how can a cooling tower reject heat, but a swamp cooler basically is the same setup is used for cooling. Can someone break it down for me?
It rejects heat so its therefore cooling also.
