  1. Cooling Tower Monitoring and Optimization Boker Wright, Dan Lewis, Tina Foley and Brandon Wissel

  2. Problem Problem Specification Design Constraints Non-intrusive No changes to the structure No interference Durable weather conditions resist damage bearing multiple take-downs Portable The system fits in 1 or 2 suitcases 4 to 8 hour set up • Develop a method to monitor the real time efficiency of a set of cooling towers • Provide recommendations to improve the overall efficiency of the set using the real time analysis.

  3. Cooling Tower Basics Passes water and air over “fill” surface area Cools through evaporation Cools fluid to near wet bulb temperature Why use cooling towers? Human comfort Industrial process Power generation Resources Water Electricity Chemical

  4. Our Approach Electricity usage vs. Heat rejected Conforms to industry standard ASME PTC and CTI codes Instrumentation/placement Wireless technology utilized Recommendations based on most efficient cells

  5. Instrumentation and Measurements Required

  6. LabVIEW Monitors and displays real time data Analyzes stored data Displays aggregate data for trend identification Modular programing with sub-VI’s for ease of modification
