A cooling tower serves as a critical heat rejection system, transferring excess heat from industrial processes or HVAC setups to the atmosphere mainly via water evaporation. By cooling recirculating water, it sustains efficient equipment operation across sectors like power generation and manufacturing. Delta's FRP Cooling Tower models stand out for their compact, resilient builds suited to varied applications.

Cooling towers rely on evaporative principles: hot process water cascades over fill media, encountering fan-driven ambient air. Evaporation of a small water fraction absorbs heat, cooling the rest for basin collection and reuse.

Cooling towers are grouped by draft method (natural or mechanical) and flow patterns (counterflow or crossflow). Mechanical variants include forced draft (base fans) and induced draft (top fans), with evaporative models leading in industrial efficiency. Delta focuses on mechanical counterflow towers

In counterflow towers, descending water meets ascending air head-on, prolonging contact for superior heat exchange and compact efficiency. This approach yields enhanced cooling in smaller spaces. Delta integrates it across the DFC-50 and DFC-60 series for robust high-load handling.

Induced draft towers employ top-mounted fans to draw air upward, fostering uniform flow and curbing hot air recirculation. Quieter and more effective than forced draft, they suit noise-restricted areas. Every Delta Cooling Tower leverages this for dependable, low-effort performance.

Range denotes the water temperature reduction across the tower (e.g., 95°F inlet to 85°F outlet yields a 10°F range). It gauges the system's fundamental cooling prowess under set conditions. Delta engineers towers for precise range control, adaptable to your setup.

Approach is the gap between cooled water temperature and ambient wet-bulb temperature (e.g., 85°F outlet versus 78°F wet-bulb = 7°F approach). Typically, cooling towers are designed for a 4°C approach to keep costs economical; however, maintaining the same range with a 3°C approach demands greater capacity, raising expenses. We advise against approaches below 2.7°C. While a tower might hit 2°C, it's rarely assured. Notably, CTI rejects approaches under 2.78°C (5°F). Our solutions strike an optimal balance for Gulf energy efficiency.

Efficiency formula: (Range / (Range + Approach)) × 100%. Example: 10°F range and 5°F approach = (10 / 15) × 100 = 66.7%. Delta's refined fills and fans routinely deliver 70-80% efficiency in practical use.

Cooling capacity = (Water Flow Rate in USGPM × Range in °F × 500) = BTU/hr, or (Water Flow Rate in Litres per Hour × Range in °C) = kcal/hr. Apply this to right-size Delta towers to your heat demands.

Wet bulb temperature marks evaporation's theoretical low at ambient humidity, anchoring tower sizing and efficiency metrics (approach ties to it). Precise wet bulb inputs guarantee Delta towers hit their marks.

TR (Ton of Refrigeration) reflects actual site-based heat rejection at 12,000 BTU/hr per ton. Nominal TR for cooling towers factors in a 25% uplift for compressor loads, equating to 15,000 BTU/hr. Delta supplies both metrics for accurate planning.

Focus on load-matched capacity, resilient materials (like FRP for corrosion), energy optimization, maintenance simplicity, and validations such as CTI. Account for site footprint, water traits, and supplier reliability. Delta prioritizes Gulf-ready, hassle-free choices.

Vital factors: heat load (TR/BTU/hr), flow rate (GPM), inlet/outlet water temperatures, wet-bulb temperature, concentration cycles, and site variables like space or location. Our Ras Al Khaimah specialists employ simulation tools for customized fits.

Fans create the airflow that helps water evaporate and cool down faster—our axial ones in induced draft setups pull air up evenly, with speed adjustments to cut power use. Delta's fans feature aerodynamically designed blades with variable pitch angles, and they're statically or dynamically balanced for low vibration and quiet, smooth running.

Fills (packing media) are interior frameworks (e.g., PVC sheets) that amplify water-air interfaces for amplified heat transfer. Options like splash, film, or honeycomb address fouling concerns. Delta's honeycomb variants endure clogging for lasting output.

Gearboxes suit larger-diameter fans, lowering tip speeds for optimal performance, as direct-drive motors are capped and unavailable below 500 RPM. Our robust, high-service-factor gearboxes enable smooth, enduring runs.

They prolong equipment longevity by averting overheating, recycle water to cut usage, trim energy via targeted evaporation, and support streamlined layouts over air cooling. Delta enhances these for eco-friendly Gulf setups.

Counterflow pits air against water for up to 20% superior transfer (though bulkier), while crossflow aligns them sideways for simpler upkeep but larger footprints. Delta leans toward counterflow for space-efficient power.

Routinely cleanse fills and basins, oversee water chemistry against scaling or legionella, check fans/gears every quarter, and verify airflow. Annual pro tune-ups are key. Delta delivers thorough UAE-based aftercare.

Pultruded FRP (Fiber Reinforced Polymer) emerges from a pull-through-resin-and-die process, yielding strong, consistent profiles with high strength-to-weight, corrosion immunity, and stability. It's prime for cooling tower structures in tough exposures. Delta harnesses it in the DPC-70 series for top-tier resilience.

Apply biocides for water treatment, sustain cleanliness, cap temps below 20°C when feasible, and adhere to draining/flushing routines per guidelines. Delta's accessible builds ease regulatory adherence.

We employ corrosion-defying FRP (fiberglass-reinforced plastic) for casing, Basin, louvers etc. and pultruded FRP for Structures, ladder, Deck, supports etc., PVC for fills/eliminations, plus galvanized steel supports—perfect for aggressive, chemical-heavy settings.

Yes—our FRP builds defy 50°C heat, humidity, and dust via UV-fortified materials and reduced-maintenance traits, fine-tuned for local rigors.
