Numerical Simulation and Experimental Analysis of the Behavior of Portland Cement Cooling Towers

The Behavior of Cement Portland Cooling Tower was evaluated numerically and experimentally.The three-dimensional simultaneous governing equations of the fluid flow, heat transfer and mass transfer were discretized and solved numerically, and the result of simulation were compared with measured data from the cement factory and with the available published result on the internet.Solid software was used as numerical software tool to predict the performance characteristics of cooling tower in Portland cement factory such as the velocity, temperature, stress and strain were simulated and compared with compute experiment.Experimentally the temperature, and pressure of gaseous and its emission across the cooling tower in White Portland cement factory were measured.The agreement seems acceptable between the numerical and experimental results.
