Water cooling towerIt is a hybrid heat exchanger. The relatively high temperature cooling water (about 35℃) from the air cooling tower flows down from the top spray, and the relatively low temperature sewage nitrogen (about 27℃-27℃) from the switching heat exchanger) the bottom-up flow, the direct contact between the two, not only heat transfer but also mass transfer, is a relatively complex heat transfer process. On the one hand, because the temperature of water is higher than that of sewage nitrogen, there is heat which is directly transmitted from water to sewage nitrogen to cool it down; on the other hand, due to the relatively dry sewage nitrogen, the relative humidity is only about 30%, therefore, the molecules of water can continuously evaporate and spread into the dirt and nitrogen. However, the evaporation of water needs to absorb the latent heat of vaporization. Taking away the heat from the water makes the temperature of the water lower continuously. This phenomenon is like putting a cup of hot boiled water in the air to cool down. Hot boiled water contacts with the air. On one hand, it transmits heat directly (or through the container wall) to the air, on the other hand, it steams, steam and spread the molecules of water into the air to take away the heat (latent heat of vaporization), making the hot boiled water cool down continuously. It must be pointed out that the moisture absorption of sewage nitrogen is the main factor to cool the water, so the relative humidity of sewage nitrogen is the key to influence the cooling effect. This is also the reason why the outlet temperature of cooling water may be lower than the inlet temperature of sewage nitrogen.

Screw compressor is a positive displacement compressor from the mechanical type, which is composed of the driving rotor and driven rotor, the main body and a pair of synchronous gears. Therefore, the common faults of screw compressor are as follows: 1. The bearing is burnt out. Because of the foreign matter in the oil system, the oil pressure and the quality of the oil are reduced, resulting in the bearing burning out. The main treatment methods are: check the oil supply system; clean the oil filter and the cooling pipe of the oil cooler; check and adjust the oil pressure regulating valve; test the oil quality, and replace the oil when it is not good; check and deal with the oil leakage points. 2. The rotor is burnt out. When foreign matters enter into the compressed medium system, the temperature of the rotor rises, the temperature of the cooling oil of the rotor increases due to the high temperature of the inhaled medium, and the compression ratio increases, which may cause the
