Improved Cooling Process And Apparatus For Implementing Said Process
Patent No. EP3671090 (titled "Improved Cooling Process And Apparatus For Implementing Said Process") was filed by LU VE on Dec 16, 2019. The application was issued on Nov 19, 2025.
Patent Summary
A fluid cooling process utilizes an apparatus comprising heat-exchange packs, fans, adiabatic panels, and water-supplying spraying units controlled by supply valves. To prevent localized wear and limescale accumulation, spraying units—individually or in sets—are activated via a mutually alternating rotation cycle based on overall operating time and specific cooling requirements. Fans and adiabatic panels operate in combination with these spraying units using alternating sequences or rotation cycles. The apparatus is divided into two sides by a center line; the rotation cycle ensures that when a single adiabatic panel operates on one side, at least one spraying unit is simultaneously activated on the opposite side. This distribution balances operational load and maintenance requirements across the cooling system.
