HYBRID ADIABATIC

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document details the Hybrid Adiabatic Cooling System by AEC, emphasizing its advantages in water and energy conservation, low maintenance, and enhanced health and safety. This system integrates dry cooler technology with adiabatic innovations for effective process cooling.
Key Features:
  • Water Savings: Achieves up to 95% annual water savings compared to traditional cooling towers by using ambient air and misting nozzles only when necessary.
  • Energy Efficiency: Provides up to 86% annual energy cost savings by operating as a dry air cooler in cooler temperatures and employing staged fan operation to maintain desired temperatures.
  • Freeze Proof Design: Features a closed loop glycol design and self-draining spray system to prevent freezing in cold climates.
  • Corrosion Resistance: Built with durable materials such as stainless steel and coated aluminum fins to resist corrosion and minimize maintenance.
  • Health and Safety: Eliminates standing water, reducing Legionnaires’ disease risk, and isolates glycol in a closed loop for enhanced safety.
  • Environmental Benefits: The closed loop system negates the need for chemical treatment, preventing environmental contamination.
System Design:
  • Incorporates a glycol loop and a process water loop, both passing through dedicated pump tanks and a heat exchanger for efficient cooling and safety.
  • Adiabatic cooling pre-cools incoming air by evaporating moisture, reducing energy consumption.
Performance Comparison:
  • Compared to traditional systems, the hybrid system offers substantial water and energy savings, with a quick payback period.
  • Designed for efficient operation across various climates, with specific performance metrics for different regions.
Technical Specifications:
  • Includes detailed specifications for different models, such as heat rejection capacity, dimensions, and weight.
  • Provides recommendations for glycol solutions based on industry needs.
Company Information:

Water and Energy Savings Reduced Water Consumption Save up to 95% in water use annually by utilizing hybrid adiabatic cooling technology versus traditional cooling tower or closed circuit fluid cooler solutions. This system will pull outside ambient air across the coils to remove heat when outside ambient temperature is cool enough and will only turn on the fine misting nozzles when needed to reach the desired temperature. Reduced Energy Use Save up to 86% in energy costs annually with the hybrid adiabatic cooling design versus a package air cooled chiller. The hybrid adiabatic system is designed...

Hybrid Adiabatic Cooling Systems Vs. Traditional Tower Systems Water Supply L_j On an annual basis, the Hybrid Adiabatic Cooling System can save up to 95% versus traditional closed loop tower system or closed circuit fluid cooler solutions. With these savings taken annually, you can expect a payback on your system as fast as 2.5 years versus the cost differential of the investment into an adiabatic system. It also reduces the usage and disposal of chemically-treated water. Adiabatic systems only utilize water when ambient air temperatures are too high to cool the fluid to the desired temperature...

Complete Process Cooling Systems In the Hybrid Adiabatic Cooling System there is a glycol loop and process water loop that both travel through separate dedicated pump tanks and a heat exchanger. A glycol mixture is used to prevent any possibility of freeze up of the outside coils and safeguards the system should the unit require a shut down during cold ambient conditions. The process water loop removes the potential hazards of working with glycol on your production floor by isolating it away from your process. A plate & frame heat exchanger separates the two fluids and cools the process water...

Wet-Bulb Temperature The wet-bulb temperature is the lowest/coldest temperature that air can reach by the evaporation of water into the air. Typical wet-bulb temperature varies by region and is an extremely important parameter to consider in tower selection and design. The heat transfer of the Hybrid Adiabatic Cooling System is optimized by lowering the incoming air from its ambient temperature to the wet-bulb temperature which maximizes the heat transfer performance of the unit. When you walk through water misters on a hot summer day and immediately feel the cooling effect, you are experiencing cooling...
