A Project of Energy Saving Control on Air Separation Cooling Tower

The cooling water flow of air separation cooling tower is controlled by the throttle valve opening, part of the shaft power must be consumed in the resistance of the throttle valve baffle, cause a waste of energy. Therefore propose a method of regulating the cooling water pump motor speed to regulate the cooling water flow, reduce system energy consumption, the results show that the system is simple and effective, with good dynamic performance.
