Watch the video here: https://www.youtube.com/c/engineeringtomorrowusa/videos The great debate. There are predominantly 2 types of cooling towers - counterflow and crossflow. The primary distinction between crossflow and counterflow cooling towers is how the air passing through the cooling tower interacts with the process water being cooled. In a crossflow tower, air flows horizontally across the direction of the falling water, whereas air flows in the opposite direction (counter) to the direction of the falling water in a counterflow tower. Join host Brian Gomski with cooling tower experts ..read more
