economical and fully connected with today's information technology

The results from these two applications were first reported in an address delivered to the International Ozone Association in June of 1981

Cooling towers are not one size fits all and are therefore designed and built to achieve a specific amount of cooling at a predetermined water flow

and others who should or may wish to become familiar with this increasingly complex and important subject

08-20: Seismic Qualification of Cooling Towers by Shake-Table Testing Cooling Tower Water Treatment Programs require special considerations in additionThe International Building Code (IBC) establishes qualification requirements for equipment, such as evaporative cooling equipment, to resist seismic loads. Where certification of seismic resistance is required, the basis for certification must be by analysis, testing, or experience data. For designated seismic system equipment that must remain operable following an earthquake, the most reliable basis for certification is shake table testing. The Code
