You have been asked to evaluate the economic implications of various methods for cooling condenser eflluents from a 200−MW steamelectric plant. There are taro basic types of coeling towers: wet and dry. Furthermoce, heat may be removed from condenser water by (1) forcing (mechanicaly) air through the fower or (2) allowing heat transfer to occur by making use of natural dratt. Consequently, there are four basic cooling tower designs that could be considered. Assuming that the cost of captal to the utility company is 12% per year, your job is to recommend the best alternative (i.e., the least expensive during the service Le). Further, assume that each aternative is capable of satisfactorily removing waste heat from the condensers of a 200−MW power plant. What noneconomic factors can you identify that might aiso play a role in the decision-making process? Click the icon to view the alternatives description.
